KOOK ALERT! KOOK ALERT! RIGHTWING WACKADOO KOOK ALERT!*
Left Coast Rebel reported on an unverified story that Obama has ordered the US Army to prepare for TEA Party terrorists. To his credit, he reported it as an unverified (and weird) rumor, and included comments from active duty soldiers saying it was BS since nobody in the Army likes Obama anyway.
Finntann sent me an e-mail on the same subject, asking in a WTF tone if I'd seen anything about it. We quickly concluded it was bogus. Because of their skepticism, Left Coast Rebel and Finntann are not kooks.
It at least sounded somewhat plausible in light of Obama sending in the riot troops after grannies gathered outside one of his demagogic shoutfests.
Or maybe he didn't.
After reviewing the video footage at big government and correlating it with what WaPo says, looks more like an overzealous small town police force having fun with their Darth Vader costumes.
This is the small town America version of a Monty Python skit
That was a town where the mayor could have came out and personally asked people to stay on the sidewalk and they would have done it out of politeness. I was waiting for Aunt Mabel to come out of the crowd and jerk the helmet off of her nephew: "Now Delbert! You stop scaring these good folks!" As she drags one of the cops off the street by his ear.
Damn, if this crap is leaching into the sane sectors of Blogistan, things are getting out of hand!
Please ignore this crap. If you want to search around, e-mail buddies and do some research, by all means press on. But please don't post this crap, and I keep calling it crap because that's what it is: Crap.
By posting crap like this you are polluting Right Blogistan and causing us to be a laughing stock of the hooting baboons who inhabit Left Blogistan.
