open letter to the other beings of the inhabited universe: I have some questions for you:

Exactly which galaxy or planet or star system or whatever, decided to send their mental patients or unwanted beings to THIS planet? And how did they decide to disguise them as republicans? Did you think we were so screwed up that we would not notice? Is this punishment for something this planet did, or failed to do? The reason I ask is because it is glaringly obvious that those beings calling themselves republicans, or tea partiers, or whatever, are clearly NOT human. They possess not one atom of anything resembling humanity-empathy, kindness, caring, compassion, intelligence, a sense of honour--NOTHING. I would not even say they were reptilian, because, frankly, I do not wish to insult reptiles. And another thing: why do they hate females so much? Do you not have life-bearers on your world? Are they so hated there, and, if so, WHY? This, almost more than anything else, makes no sense. So, the only conclusion I can draw is that they are some sort of transplants in disguise (a la "MIB&quot . And, therefore, I have a request: PLEASE take them back, or find some uninhabited little bit of a planet somewhere far, far from inhabited worlds, and send them there. We would be most grateful.

Thanks in advance,
Humanity

1. Got a reply from them already

"The cranial cavity of your republicans was found to be nearly empty and therefore an easy choice for new living accommodations. Terribly sorry about sending our mental patients, but you do the same thing to your own homeless. The cost savings so far have been quite lucrative for us. We are unfortunately forced into the next phase and will require some of your democrats as well. The profits are not as high due to excavation of the existing tissue before moving in."

"On a side note, we were wondering why you have elected members of our species to high office a number of times?"

3. "We will make you all our utter thralls"

Just wait. Our breeding program is already underway.

Do you actually believe that the disappearance of the Weekly World News from the grocery store check-out line was a business decision?

(If you only knew the real truth about Mitch McConnell. Now that's a story that would be much bigger than Bat Boy.)

4. Well, obviously the Buddhists are right

and all those old Nazis got reincarnated as John Birchers/teabaggers here. The timeline works out pretty well, too.

It explains why the country decided to go crazy much the same way the fascist countries in Europe did in the 1930s.

6. perhaps they are. something has to explain this increasing wave of ugliness, hatred and insanity.

8. What explains it is the destruction of the commons

and the lack of a stake we all have in this country. It's been taken away with us, along with hope that things are going to improve any time soon.

You put people under pressure, they're going to turn ugly. That's what's happening.
