An NPR broadcast from September 2014, as imagined by some Daily Kos muppet:
Former President George W. Bush began serving consecutive life sentences today for High Treason in connection convictions for creating a false casus beli for War with Iraq. He was sentenced to Life plus 100 years. He is also serving a life term for warrantless wiretapping.
The “plus 100 years” is a nice touch; apparently future judges assume an afterlife.
President Jon Stewart today said, “It’s a little sad really. I owe him a lot. I mean, basically he launched my career.” Vice President Colbert was unavailable while vacationing in France visiting relatives and stopping by the new UN Headquarters in London on the way back from his rest. In a prepared statement, the Vice President said, “We are all sad and shamed at what George W Bush wrought upon this great nation. Perhaps this will be the new beginning America needs.”
And so on and on, until … well, your sides won’t exactly split with laughter. In fact, any pre-existing side-located wounds will most likely heal closed. Further highlights:
• Dick Cheney waterboarded following his conviction in a “secret military tribunal”;
• Michael J. Fox competes in a marathon following successful stem cell therapy;
• Former Bush officials sentenced to harvest stem cells in the former Huntsville Penitentiary;
• Rush Limbaugh and Bill O’Reilly convicted for “propaganda”, stripped of their citizenship, and sentenced to life imprisonment;
• Mona Charen “eaten by some wild animal” after escaping prison;
• “Ann Coulter, Michelle Malagang and Judith Miller” denied parole and ordered not to “speak in public or publish for the rest of their lives”;
• Chelsea Clinton appointed National Health Care Director, in which role she will “administer the application of free medicine to Americans”;
• An Ohio student wins one million dollars for showing “evolutionary changes in house flies in two generations”;
• “Election experts predict massive Congressional wins for the Progressive Party that is expected to hold 200 seats. Democrats will likely hold onto 20 of the remaining 38 seats and Independants will hold the rest. Under the National Restoration Freedom Act, Republicans will not be allowed to fly, vote or run for office until 2030”;
• Markos Moulitsas is a billionaire;
• Palestine becomes a nation in 2009, and;
• Terrorism declines for the sixth consecutive year.

- The one thing that strikes me as realistic in all this, is the idea that if the Left seizes control, they will throw all those who disagree with them in prison. While cherishing free speech, of course.
On the other hand, the idea of the UN being kicked out of the States did bring a joyful tear to my eye…
• Rush Limbaugh and Bill O’Reilly convicted for “propaganda”, stripped of their citizenship, and sentenced to life imprisonment;
[snip]• “Ann Coulter, Michelle Malagang and Judith Miller” denied parole and ordered not to “speak in public or publish for the rest of their lives”;
This must be the new version of “Speaking Truth To Power”…..or maybe the 1st Amendment was amended.
Meh. This is the dream of a fascist. Why am I not surprised?
Oh, and the only way Kos becomes a billionaire is to inherit. He must have really sucked up to George Soros.

- It’s interesting that they imagine President Bush to be guilty of “High Treason.” That’s a British crime from the olde days, loosely defined as doing anything to piss off the King (or Queen). The abuses of High Treason led to Treason being the only crime to be defined, narrowly:
Section 3. Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort. No person shall be convicted of treason unless on the testimony of two witnesses to the same overt act, or on confession in open court.
It appears now that High Treason is doing anything to piss off the Kos Kids.
Me?
Guilty, m’lud.
Chelsea Clinton appointed National Health Care Director, in which role she will “administer the application of free medicine to Americans”;
At least, those who don’t “commit propaganda”. In fact, only those who get their science the old-fashioned way: from high school science projects.
Under the National Restoration Freedom Act, Republicans will not be allowed to fly, vote or run for office until 2030”
Wow. The double-speak and fascism in that line is unbelievable.

- Oh, and I have to wonder: while Chelsea is “administering free health care”, who’s actually doing the work? You know, who’s drawing the blood, running the tests, making the diagnoses?
Who’s gonna pay those people?
What if they don’t want to work for government wages? Or if they’d rather work on their own?
Or is the medical profession simply to be enslaved?

- Compare and contrast the totalitarian wet dream of the Kos stooge with the genuinely funny and pithy fantasy story written by C.L. up there (comment #2). The Left’s lack of humor is an indication of its underlying incapacity for understanding human nature, and a portent of the inhumane form of society it wishes to inflict on the rest of us. To paraphrase Mencken, my last act as I mount the steps to the gallows will be to deliver a horselaugh in the direction of these nouveau bolshevists.
- As other commenters have noticed too is that this dream tells us about the real Left and how it is totalitarian to the core: the complete criminalization of dissent. Anyone who has attended a university can testify to the fact that it is impossible to disagree with the left about any issue that they hold dear without being labeled misinformed, stupid, evil or stupid and evil. And if you refuse to concede and vigorously argue your points with them—well hell hath no fury. The idea that they could be wrong is one that is so alien to them that it is incomprehensible.Posted by Mark Razak on 2006 11 02 at 10:51 AM • permalink
- I think the most telling quote is “Michelle Malagang”, yessir if you want to see a “progressive” explode into a fit of racist hysteria you only gotta utter the words “Michelle” and “Malkin” and just sit back and listen to the torrent of racial and misogynistic filth that will issue forth.
Apparently it’s perfectly acceptable for Senator Rodham to call herself by her husband’s name but Mrs Malkin is sneered at for doing so, they’re a strange breed them moonies.

The word fascism has lost much of its meaning nowadays, and is frequently used by the Left to malign anyone they disagree with. I am going to use the word in its original sense.
This document is a fascist manifesto. Based on a small sample (only 15 comments) nobody over there disagrees with it. Either I don’t have a sense of humor or they don’t.

- Mark Razak at #13 has pretty much summed it up. Not only is the modern Left fascist and totalitarian, they actually take pride in having “progressed” to that level. I’m completely unable to fathom how one arrives at that kind of outlook. I bet the author and every single one of the people who commented favorably on that piece of dreck see themselves as staunch anti-fascists, too.
I generally frown when commenters here use the term “subhuman filth” to describe this or that group of people, but I’ll make an exception in this case: The writer of that manifesto is subhuman filth. And so are all who agree with it.
- That’s pretty darn funny. I wonder if they got their computers sticky while typing that up.
It’s also pretty typically amusing how totalitarian their fantasies are, everybody who disagrees with them is in jail and the GOP is outlawed. You know, because Bush is a dictator and jails people who don’t agree with him.
First they came for the neo-cons….

- Ouch! They ought to be more careful with squirting bodily fluids all over their keyboards like that. Such irresponsible acts put them at risk of electrocution. And even with their Progressive worldview, I should think it would still be a bit embarrassing to be found burnt to a crisp at the computer, their jackboots up on either side of the monitor and their jodphurs down around their ankles. I mean, how to explain it to mom?
Boy, there’s nothing like reading the typical dewy fantasies of so-called “Progressives” first thing in the morning. It’s interesting, though, how they always seem to include some kind of re-education camp, scientific experimentation on those they’ve imprisoned, or the stripping away of basic rights from people who have the temerity to disagree with them.
But ya know, with a little extra government funding, I bet they’ll be able to put on some really spectacular torchlight rallies!

That lofty state encompasses about 46 square miles in the middle of Massachusetts and 82 square miles centered on San Francisco…connected of course by an eco-friendly burro transportation net thru a negotiated “moonbat corridor” across America.
This state of affairs was enacted in 2012 after an attempted coup by disaffected progressives after they had lost their 4th presidental election in a row by ever widening margins. The coup was doomed to failure due to the lack of weapons, no popular support, feeling a bit fragile that day, and the resistance of a troop of girl scouts from Tennessee on a trip to the National Capital.
However the PA (progressive army) had great marching songs and really neat puppets.

Of course – there will be plenty of property left abandoned by progressives moving to the DRNA from smaller enclaves in LA, Austin, NYC, and Minneapolis. Without the drag of progressive programs, doomsaying, and foot-dragging, the economy of real America will boom.President Richard S. “Kinky” Friedman enacted the “Patriot Recovery Act of 2012” to aid those few Americans trapped in the PRNA zones.
As the fertility rate of the PRNA was discovered to be .02, it is expected that those zones will be available for re-colonization by Americans within one generation.
As a side note, the widely popular reality show, “Live from the PRNA – It’s Always Saturday Night”, broke viewership records again. Unfortunately a few of the hidden cameras were discovered near Fisherman’s Wharf and the lenses partially blocked by badly spray-painted Mercedes symbols.

- # 57 I agree there are similarities in this utopian dream with Hitler and the Nazis, but all totalitarian regimes have things in common. It reminds me even more of Stalin and communism. After all, the radical left has its heritage in socialism and communism. The juvenile ignorance combined with the passionate hatred of opponents reminds me of a socialist friend I knew in college in the 70’s, who wanted to line up all the capitalists against a wall and shoot them. He said it jokingly, but it was exactly what his communist heroes had already done everywhere they gained power.

There is a chance. If you go to his “diary” and look at his post of 10/31 you may come away with the idea that this rant of today is simply a parody. That would be one interpretation. The other interpretation is that todays rant is simply the mother of all projections.

- I hate to rain on such a nice warm wet dream, but what if – just as speculation, mind you – but what if the military and law enforcement refused to go along with this dictatorship of the proletariat? Of course, we all know that the military is comprised of uneducated brainwashed killers so of course they’d all follow orders and round up their friends, neighbors, and family members prior to marching themselves into the internment camps, but just suppose – only for the sake of argument – that there are a few isolated troopers of intelligence and integrity who take seriously their oath to support and defend the Constitution?
Could get sticky. Mind you, I’m not saying there are people like that in the military, only that there could be.
And failing that, of course, the NRA has nearly three million members. No telling what those neanderthals will do, even if they do find themselves disenfranchised.

It does seem it could go either way, but then I don’t see much to choose between communism and fascism. The leftists seem to get along with the islamofascists pretty well, at least for now, but I suppose Stalin and Hitler both benefited at first from their temporary pact until Hitler saw an opportunity to strike. Maybe the leftists will regret their alliance with the Muslims one day too.
A lot of truth in this familiar quote: Those who cannot learn from history are doomed to repeat it. George Santayana

Secretary of State Barbra Streisand flew to Paris last night for a series of meetings with her French counterpart Mustava Semtex-Kalishnikov and other Euro leaders to discuss the final arrangements for a Euro-Mecca in the Preovence of Burgundy.
Once all the grape vines have been ploughed and all traces of the wine industry razed, an area of around 40 square miles will be dedicated to a huge Islamic complex, the centrepiece being an exact duplication of Kaaba, the shrine in Mecca.
The only sticking point seems to be whether a single province in France can enact Sharia law unilaterally or whether the whole of France, and consequently, all of Europe will have to legislate for Sharia at the same time.
Secretary Streisand was accompanied by Assistant Secretary of State for European Affairs, Susan Sarandon.

- Breaking news September 11th 2014:
Markos Moulitsas, author of popular approved peoples news site Daily Kos, was brutally murdered today by Islamic militia. Members of the US based Allahs Martyrs group have claimed the killing and posted the video of hooded men decapitating Moulitsas with a hunting knife whilst reciting passages from the Quran.
This marks the 17th homosexual killed by Islamic militants this September, marking a slight decrease in the violence. President Jon Stewart today said “It is vitally important for all Americans to ensure that muslims are not unfairly blamed for the actions of these radicals. Islam is a religion of peace and our hearts go out to their community”.
- He forgot some:
“Progressives and Muslims all over the world celebrated the death of the last of the world’s Jews in the Al-Hilaly Extermination Camp, known before the takeover of Europe by Radical Islamists as Dachau.”
“The United States government finished paying over to the Caliphate half its national income as jizya for this year. In return the Caliph graciously agreed to limit the numbers of jihadi terrorists and pirates being sent to the US, thus insuring the reduction of terrorist attacks noted above.”
One of the characteristic things about leftoids is that they never are able to recognize, or admit if they do recognize, the terrible consequences of their stupid ideas. In the 20th Century those consequences included mass muder, mass famine, and the impoverishment of entire continents due to insane ideologies. There is no reason to think that repeating the same stupidities in the present century will not lead to similar results. Such people are either stupid or malevolent, there is no more room to imagine them being honestly misguided, since the evidence is in front of their noses and they refuse to see it.

At the time of European settlement in the early 1600’s, the area that was to become the conterminous United States had approximately 221 million acres of wetlands
So apparently running your sprinklers under Kossack rule will get your lawn declared a “protected wetland”.
- “Dick Cheney waterboarded following his conviction in a “secret military tribunal”
Leftys hate those secret military tribunals…unless they’re ordered by a lefty president, like FDR, for instance.
During WWII a bunch of German saboteurs were captured in the United States, tried before a secret tribunal, and then they were all executed (except for a couple that ratted on their friends)…all by order of a leftist (Roosevelt).
Leftys are the biggest hypocrites on God’s green earth.
They do know how to deal with spies, saboteurs, and terrorists…or, at east they used to know how.

Yes sortelli, I remember the CAPS Embezzlement of 2004 and the hell I had to pay when Karl saw the bill. (shudders)

- 91830,
The US Army Corps of Engineers Civil Works types have, at times, declared discarded tires with rainwater in them protected wetlands, so it would not be at all surprising if the “reality-based community” found 1 billion acres of wetlands to protect. After all, even the Mohave Desert and the Jornada del Muerto get a bit of rain now and then. What more do you want, actual swamps?Posted by Michael Lonie on 2006 11 03 at 09:28 PM • permalink
