Let us take a moment of joy, memories of COLBERT & MAHER eviscerating Dinesh D'SOUZA

So many directions to go with this, where to start. Well, 1st let’s go with a moment of all out joyous release. 2nd direction, wow, indicted/investigated by both U.S. Attorney AND the FBI: If I learned anything from The Wolf of Wall Street, it’s that this double whammy is what puts the fear of Zeus into scoundrels and really the FBI part smarting the more.

3rd direction, the first video is COLBERT absolutely eviscerating D’SOUZA to the point of COLBERT almost breaking out of his comedic character. The other is Bill MAHER confronting him about MAHER’s having been cancelled because of D’SOUZA, with MAHER showing the only vulnerability ever.

4th direction, oh look, the indictment is about campaign donor violations, because we know that wingnuts are SO concerned over the integrity of the elections system and fraud at the bottom of the elections pyramid that accounts for ONE criminal case out of THIRTEEN MILLION votes, while the HUMONGOUS BUCKS of the wingnuts’ corruption at the top is seldom faulted.

[font size=5]The HBO host implicated Dinesh D’Souza in his 2002 firing from ABC.[/font]
An appearance by conservative filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza on HBO’s Real Time turned into an unpleasant trip down memory lane, when host Bill [FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: yellow"]Maher confronted the director about his apparent role in events leading to the comedian's firing from ABC in 2002[/FONT]. ....

On Real Time, Maher read a portion of the episode's transcript, which showed his controversial comments came after D’Souza first called the 9/11 hijackers brave.

[FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: yellow"]Maher said he was simply agreeing with D’Souza[/FONT] about the hijackers. ....

Earlier in the interview, Maher slammed Obama’s America for its assertion that President Obama’s agenda was shaped by Barack Obama Sr., even though the Commander in Chief met his father just once.
But D’Souza offered as evidence the title of Obama’s book, Dreams From My Father.

“Not Dreams of My Father,” D’Souza said.“Not about his father’s dreams. Dreams From My Father means ‘here are the dreams, I, Obama, got from my dad.”

Maher didn’t buy it.

[FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: yellow"]“How far up your ass do you have to go to pull that out,” the HBO host said. “I could just as easily say 'Mitt Romney’s father was born on a polygamist compound. My theory is Mitt Romney wants to be president so we can have sister wives.'”[/FONT] ....

[font size=5]Conservative Icon Dinesh D’Souza Indicted For Campaign Fraud[/font]

[FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: yellow"]GOP hero[/FONT] and Obama’s America director Dinesh [FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: yellow"]D’Souza—remember him?—has embarrassed his party once again.[/FONT]
Today the [FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: yellow"]U.S. Attorney[/FONT] for the Southern District of New York [FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: yellow"]and the FBI jointly indicted D’Souza[/FONT] for illegally funneling money to a conservative Senatorial candidate in 2012 and, later, lying to the Federal Election Commission about it. He faces up to 7 years in prison.

U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara, who announced the indictment in a Manhattan federal court on Thursday afternoon, alleges that D’Souza arranged for an unspecified number of individuals to donate to a political campaign under their own names on the condition that D’Souza would reimburse them in full. D’Souza apparently concocted the plot to skirt federal campaign finance laws that limit the amount of money a single individual can donate to a candidate.

While Bharara doesn’t name the candidate to whom D’Souza directed the money, Reuters identified her as Wendy Long, a Republican lawyer who in 2012 ran unsuccessfully against Kirsten Gillibrand, a Democrat and the junior U.S. Senator of New York State.

D’Souza is scheduled to be arraigned in Manhattan on Friday. He is also scheduled to debate former Weatherman Bill Ayers on January 30 at Dartmouth College about what makes America so great.

4. In BROCK's Blinded by the Right, D'SOUZA's & INGRAHAM's vileness is documented

How at Dartmouth they and their circle posted flyers around campus outing people, INGRAHAM crawling on all fours on barroom floors and holding a gun to the head of one or another ex-boyfriend, COULTER living on cigarettes and wine, and all of them being the "Elves" network fueling the FAKE impeachment, DRUDGE hitting on BROCK. Of course, all of these somehow have claimed the right to be the voices of moral, righteous indignation against all Libs. And INGRAHAM converted to Catholicism back in the day when converting was all the rage in wingnut Spook circles, Opus Dei, Robert NOVAKula, but it has been a permanent fascination to me how NO trace of spirituality has been in evidence, NO change away from her vile mouth. An e-mail asking about this to The Little Sisters of the Poor got a reply that they didn't know who she is:

He twists D'Souza around to the point that this "brain" agrees that Republicans are like Al Qaeda
