In the no
by Ed Naha | February 25, 2009



Oh, to live in Republitopia - a magical land where millionaires are a protected species, union workers are the enemy of the economy, fluttering fiscal fairies fart free-market fixes and GOPee prosperity trickles down upon us all from the Rigged Rock Candy Mountain.

Where else but in Republitopia could John "Bronzer" Boehner drop the 1,200 page stimulus bill on the House floor in a manner so melodramatic that Joan Crawford's heirs are demanding a royalty? Where else could Senator Lindsey Graham crank up the cornpone and give hisself the vapors while uttering, "If this is...bipartisanship, the country is screwed?" Where else could perpetual loser Alan Keyes declare, "Obama is a radical communist?"

Where else, after our President vows, "We will rebuild, we will recover, and the United States of America will emerge stronger than before," could Louisiana governor Bobby Jindal respond with, "Today in Washington, some are promising that government will rescue us from the economic storms raging all around us. Those of us who lived through Hurricane Katrina, we have our doubts?"

Oh, to live in Republitopia - where reality is not an option.

Here's President Obama, describing our current situation. "Those of us gathered here tonight have been called to govern in extraordinary times. It is a tremendous burden, but also a great privilege - one that has been entrusted to few generations of Americans. For in our hands lies the ability to shape our world for good or for ill."

Here's Michael Steele pondering his. "People who said I can't make the trains run on time never gave a reason. I say to them, 'Stuff it.'"

Yo, Mikey! Get your inconsequential self on that way-back retro-train to Republitopia and get jiggy with all your pals in the no.

The rest of us are going to the crossroads and heading towards the future.

1. What do you

do when your ass is so far out in the wind it interferes with air traffic, when your bullshit is recognized as such by anyone with an IQ greater than that of a gerbil, when the cognitive dissonance you have created has left you on the outside of reality - but you still HAVE to say something?

It's tough being cannon fodder for the richest 1% of the population.
