A rant, by someone else

[ksmith]

Hunter, over at Daily Kos:

We boo those with medical conditions. We deny outright that the first non-white President of the United States is even a citizen of his own country, much less leader of it. We still insist that an administration breaking the law is less divisive and controversial than daring to investigate it. We put brick-stupid or malevolently selfish people on television, and feign outrage at anyone who points out their stupidity or selfishness. And the President speaking to your children is the onset of communism, although perhaps barely a tenth of the population that utter it have any actual notion of what "communism" might actually be.

What she said. Or rather, what she said Hunter said.

Good rant.

Thanks for pointing me to this guy. The prior post about the health insurance industry is good too.

They all go overboard every now and again, but the bloggers at Kos are usually pretty good. I also like Chris Bowers and Mike Lux at Open Left. Marcy Wheeler (Emptywheel) at Firedoglake. And John Cole at Balloon Juice.

I had just read yet another story about parents not allowing their children to watch Obama's talk, and I was ready to post a rant when I found this one. It just about says it all.
