UNCIVIL DISCOURSE

Salon surveys gleeful right-wing hatefulness after the election and, in doing so, makes the argument that (many of them) are enemies, not opponents--an argument I happen to agree with.

Here's a tasty morsel:
"To the sneering punks who called Bush a smirking chimp, the conspiracy nutjobs who couldn't say four words without Halliburton dribbling out of their mouth, the goons who tried to shut down GOP campaign offices, the morons who think Bush is an idiot, the defeatists who encourage our enemies while demanding that we don't dare question their patriotism, the thugs who painted swastikas on Bush campaign signs, the sophists spouting 'regime change begins at home', the historically challenged fools who compare Bush to Hitler, the 'It's all about oil' idiots, the 'Fahrenheit 911' watching simpletons, the delusional paranoids who claim that fascism is now upon us, the self-important nobodies who fancy that their dissent is even worth crushing, and the disaffected expatriates who trash our president and country overseas to curry favor with their Euro buddies, I have a simple message using the straightforward words of Dick Cheney:

"Go fuck yourselves."

Turns out there's an extra-exclusive A-list for some extra-deserving offenders:

"I also want to extend my one fingered victory salute to some specific individuals and groups. So here's a big Fuck You victory shout out to:

"Michael Moore, The City Pages, Al Franken, National Public Radio, Bruce Springsteen, MoveOn.org, Barbara Streisand, the a-holes at The New York Times (big-time!), Dan Rather, Rock The Vote, Garrison Keillor, CBS News, George Soros, The Guardian, Michael Stipe, The Minneapolis Star Tribune editorial board, P Diddy , Minnesota Public Radio, Nick Coleman, CNN, Paul Krugman, Kim Ode, the eastern half of Canada, Molly Ivins, Whoopi Goldberg, and France.

"And I have a further message to all those (especially relevant for Michael Moore) who claim that they'd rather leave the country than spend another four years in George W. Bush's Amerika: Don't let the border gate hit your ass on the way out."
You're so pretty when you're unfaithful to me. But seriously, isn't it time to play hardball, even if the fraud stuff turns out to be unresolvable?
