The Left Loves Them Some Crazies

Is it me, or do the Code Pinkers reeeeeally need to get laid?

I don’t mean to judge them too harshly, but that’s what we’d say about a dude that flipped out in public like those two whack jobs at the White House Correspondence Dinner who harassed Donald Rumsfeld and his wife as they entered the building – as invited guests. I don’t know who these women are – and if they’ve lost family in Iraq or anywhere else, God Bless’em, but…damn. They’re the type of crazy that makes you realize the word crazy is overused.

Cindy Sheehan reportedly saw it and said, “That’s some crazy-ass women right there.” Roseanne Barr was heard to reply, “No sh*t Sheehan.”

Crazy women are more off-putting than crazy men. That’s why “Obsessed” was such a hit, men are scared of crazy women. Like the Rumsfeld-Code Pink video, it featured two women, one crazy from the get go. The other one was rational, but by the end, said, “I’ma show you crazy!!”

The news is dominated today by crazy women, and by one sane woman who’s being depicted as crazy – Carrie Prejean. Yeah, she’s as nutty as a Snickers, espousing crackpot beliefs that are in line with, oh, seventy-five percent of the population. Where’s the padded cell? Her situation and Alec Baldwin’s appearance on Letterman this week lead me to believe Right Wing Christian is the new gay. I know that was a fairly popular sentiment back when “The Passion of the Christ” came out, and I rejected it then. But the way Baldwin talked about his brother Stephen’s religious and political conversion, as if even knowing a Christian right winger was creepy, made me wonder if Alec thought his brother’s “condition” was contagious.

But back to crazy women and the lies they utter-stutter, and Nancy Pelosi’s stammering stuttering follow-up to her initial denial, which no one believes. She reminded me of the Mayor of Amity, repeating, “I was acting…I was acting in the town’s best interest. In the town’s best interest. I was acting in the town’s best interest!” She’s claiming now she was lied to. I sense that she’ll eventually crumble, admit she was briefed on EIT’s, and claim she was bullied into it. It will all come back to Bush.

After her two denials, can Democrats finally admit that Bush isn’t the first ineloquent politician in the world? Most are. The constant fawning over Obama because he is eloquent reeks of “the soft bigotry of low expectations.” Which inarticulate boob first used that phrase?

Back to the Shrill Patrol vs. Rumsfeld. I’ve always found the “war criminal” charge from the far left to be repetitive and redundant, not to mention repetitive and redundant. They think war’s a crime, anyway, so what’s a war criminal? I’m not looking for help from Webster’s on this – I won’t be swayed.

I hate when other people do this, but I’m gonna do it anyway. In their hearts, I don’t believe that these particular loons give a rip about “One million dead Iraqis.” A million sounds better than forty-three hundred, which would be roughly the number of Americans who have given their lives for their country in Iraq.

The left always embraces nuts like this, while we on the right are always put on the defensive when one of our likeminded cohorts does something ridiculous. Like in the case of Joe the Plumber, and his unwillingness to let his kids be around them thar “queers.” We distance, they embrace.

They’ve figured out, as evidenced by Obama’s Come to Jesus speech in Philadelphia, “A More Perfect Union” (Thanks, Obama, for only stealing the title this time). Wright was portrayed as his crazy uncle, the one who gets drunk and puts his you-know-what in the mashed potatoes. I know, Obama eventually had to denounce Wright, but he got way more chances than we tend to give our guys the boot the minute they signal the guy in the next stall over in a public restroom.

If we didn’t at least act as accomplices in the widespread shaming of Larry Craig, who knows? Maybe he’d be hassled to this day by hysterical crazies bellowing “AIRPORT CRIMINAL! AIRPORT CRIMINAL! HE PROPOSITIONED MILLIONS OF MEN IN THE PUBLIC RESTROOM!”
