Annals Of Self-Parodic Stupidity & Paranoic Delusions

In case you hadn't heard.
The Obama White House is behind a cynical, coldly calculated political effort to erase the meaning of the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks from the American psyche and convert Sept. 11 into a day of leftist celebration and statist idolatry.
Certainly there was no "statist ideology" involved in any previous markings of this anniversary. Just "patriotism."
This effort to reshape the American psyche has nothing to do with healing the nation and everything to do with easing the nation along in the ongoing radical transformation of America that President Obama promised during last year's election campaign. The president signed into law a measure in April that designated Sept. 11 as a National Day of Service, but it's not likely many lawmakers thought this meant that day was going to be turned into a celebration of ethanol, carbon emission controls, and radical community organizing.
Here the author reveals that all they got is fear.
The plan is to turn a "day of fear" that helps Republicans into a day of activism called the National Day of Service that helps the left. In other words, nihilistic liberals are planning to drain 9/11 of all meaning. "They think it needs to be taken back from the right," said the source. "They're taking that day and they're breaking it because it gives Republicans an advantage. To them, that day is a fearful day."
We felt sick already, but had to read the comments, which include such classics as: "Commies/greenies." "They can call it ‘hug a commie day’, don’t matter, it ain’t going to fly." "So, basically, he's turning Sept. 11 in to National Radical Negro Day. Hail Nero! Hail Caligula! Heil Hitler!" "'Sustainability' = BOLSHEVISM." A bit of self-awareness, but not enough: "In other words, too many people have cried wolf when there was none to the point that most are dulled in their sensibilities to take extreme statements seriously when in fact they are correct. The far left knows this and is using it quite well in the advance of its agenda." No racism here: "Obama needs to 'go dark' he is too light now to suit me. By the way, can we still use the word 'darkie'? Stephen Foster used it in his song and it said where all the darkies were gay." "You wacko libs need to be driven out of this country for good before you destroy her." "America's greatest enemy of freedom, national security, and ultimately world peace, currently resides at 1600 Pennsylvania, Ave., Washington D.C. That the fourth estate incessantly bloviates about that enemy's wife (as a distraction), whether or not this 'fashion queen' is wearing embarrassingly frayed jeans as her bow-legs sashay down the steps of Air Force One, is just more proof that the band plays on..." And as always, we're confronted w/ the same question as when "desecration" of the flag comes up: If it's never been consecrated, how can it be desecrated? Has "9/11" ever been declared holy by a gawd-bovverer? No, & if it had it wouldn't be constitutional.

Thank you for saving untold weak-fingered millions of carpal tunnel sufferers from the agony of an extra click.

"Fifteen min." hate, wasn't it?
