8 November 2012. THIS is Why Wet Willy Lost…

______________________________

You see, Willy doesn’t know the meaning of “duty”… he had had his gazillionaire daddy buy him a phony “clergy” deferment during the Vietnam War. He doesn’t know the meaning of “patriotism”… he sends his money to the Cayman Islands and he sends American jobs to China. He doesn’t know the meaning of “charity” in the true sense… if he did, he would’ve silenced the “birthers” and condemned the racists in the Republican Party… but he didn’t (true charity doesn’t involve money… it involves love and care). People saw this; they have eyes, ears, and brains. They voted for the President.

They voted for love, patriotism, duty, and charity…

8 October 2012. A Point to Ponder… Good Ol’ Cicero Describes Wee Willy Romney to a Tee

Here’s Wee Willy’s attitude to the rest of us… after all, taxes are for us “little people” to pay… he’ll keep his money hidden from Uncle Sugar in the Cayman Islands, thank you very much (yet, he wants to run the government, fancy that).

_____________________________

A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious, but it can’t survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he’s known and carries his banner openly. However, the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustle through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor, he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague.

Marcus Tullius Cicero

Willy is a traitor. He refused to serve in the forces in time of war, even though he was both physically and mentally fit for military duty in the war zone. He had his gazillionaire daddy buy him a bogus “clergy deferment”… whilst other poorer men went to the front (and some died). He hides his money in overseas tax shelters; he has no qualms over the fact that such financial chicanery increases our tax burden. Apparently, Willy agrees with Leona Helmsley, “Only the little people pay taxes”. He’s not even ashamed that his federal tax burden is far lighter than that of many who have only one percent of his income. He has the unmitigated and brazen gall to attack President Putin, but I’ll say that Vova has the decency to keep his family and his religious faith out of the public spotlight (he considers the airing of such a “political striptease”)… Wee Willy doesn’t… that should tell you something, too.

In short, the above proves that he isn’t a patriot at all; he’s a self-centred and selfish traitor. Yet, he has the goddamned gall to run for President of the USA. “Nice” is NOT “good”… we forget that at our peril. Besides that, don’t fail to recall that “legal” isn’t synonymous with “moral”… I think that’s an important distinction for us to bear in mind, too. Willy loves his money more than he loves his country… that’s why he’s the most dangerous form of traitor. Mammon worship is treason, in spades (look what it did to Willy… he hid his money abroad, but he wants to spend it here without paying tax on it like everyone else does). Deus videte et iudicare (Let God see and judge)…

Woe to those who call good “evil” and evil “good”…

10 June 2012. A Picture IS Worth a Thousand Words… The TRUE Cost of Romney’s “Conservatism”…

______________________________

This old woman is begging for alms on the streets of Athens as a direct result of “austerity”. THIS is why Greeks are favouring SYRIZA more and more. The loans were NOT for profligate social spending… they enriched arms merchants in Germany, France, and the USA… and their soulless Greek middlemen. The affluent effluent has not sacrificed one damn thing so far… and they don’t bloody care if old people beg and starve… “the race goes to the swiftest”… “they should have saved”… “am I my brother’s keeper?”

Yes… you are. If the money-grubbing antics of the affluent effluent and the political “conservatives” aren’t objectively evil, then, what is? Think on this… evil does not come in red tights carrying a pitchfork… it comes wearing Prada or a three-piece suit. You can follow Christ or you can be a “brute in a suit”… it’s your choice. After all, a Cayman Islands offshore bank account is proof of financial skulduggery, isn’t it? Oh, yes, Wafflin’ Willy can take money from that offshore account, without limit, and use it to try to buy the presidency… even though he paid no US taxes on it. Citizens United said so… isn’t that special?

You can help the iaias, babas, and grannies live with a little dignity… or you can help enrich the affluent effluent further. It’s up to you. “Tennis, anyone?”

30 May 2012. David Frum Tweets on Wafflin’ Willy… It Reveals Why Willy Doesn’t Have a Snowball’s Chance in Hell of Winning the Presidency

______________________________

Here’s what David Frum tweeted after he heard Donald Trump’s latest birther nonsense on CNN:

That was a big steaming plate of shit spaghetti Trump just deposited on CNN for his supposed friend Romney.

There it is… in plain blunt English with no equivocation. Wafflin’ Willy refuses to repudiate birtherism… is that because too many of his bubba base believes in it? It won’t play outside of anti-Obama circles. Truly, it won’t. However, what’s important here is Willy’s cowardice in the face of evil falsehood and lies. It gives us a peek into his empty, vacuous, money-grubbing, power-hungry character. What’s happened to the Republican Party? Have they all taken “stupid pills?” Compare Wafflin’ Willy to Ike and TR… and Gerald Ford, too. He even makes Nixon look good… at least, Nixon refused to contest the 1960 election, and he resigned for the good of the country. All that Willy can offer is a Cayman Islands offshore account larger than the annual budget of a small African state. Even Barry Goldwater looks like a “liberal” compared to the present lot in the GOP… no lie. Remember, Barry said, “You don’t have to be straight to be in the army; you just have to shoot straight”. Compare that to the treacly and smarmy religiosity of the current Republican Party… Barry said this about that:

I’m even more angry as a legislator who must endure the threats of every religious group who thinks it has some God-granted right to control my vote on every roll call in the Senate. I’m warning them today… I’ll fight them every step of the way if they try to dictate their moral convictions to all Americans in the name of “conservatism”.

I agree with Barry wholeheartedly in that… and the present Republican Party doesn’t… that should tell you whom to vote for in November. The President is a messy compromise, to be sure, but a broken and stumbling attempt at Social Democracy is preferable to a Ayn Randish state of brute anarchy (don’t forget how Paul Ryan and Dropout Scott Walker gushed over her godless ideology… oh, yes… for Orthodox people, Chad Hatfield of SVS just spoke at a venue that slobbers over Ryan… ain’t that special).

Crazy world, ain’t it? Pass me the jug…
