The evil spirit of McCarthy haunts the airwaves again!
The radio announcer yells in the microphone: I am going to speak
the truth and I don’t care if the politically correct police drag me
off the air and put me in a socialist concentration camp!!!! America
has been taken over by Islamo-socialists! I hope all you true
Americans stand by me in this fight against these American hating
liberals! I dare Obama and his commie zombies to take away my gun,
bible or private property! I will fight to the death to keep my
freedom! Unquote. No, this not the ranting of old gunner Joe from the
1950’s, this is now! The last time we heard rhetoric like this was the
90’s from militia sympathizers on citizen ban radio. However, their
rhetoric was more sophisticated than this latest rehash of the red
scare of the 1950’s. Yep, that is the latest Republican talking point
for our angry white guys on the radio: Obama is a Marxist! Such a
shame! Will 22% of the USA fall for it? Might be! The more important
question is: will these radio listeners buy the products the sponsors
are selling. Not really, why? Because nobody will have any money once
the depression kicks in. So enjoy rightard radio while it lasts
because without advertisers, right wing radio is doomed. Of course
they will blame Obama’s red army.
Will Obama be the greatest president ever? Well…. let’s look at
history. FDR had his right wing critics too. They called him, “The
creeping socialist”. Nut jobs like the Father Coughlin would go on the
radio and get into a fanatical harangue with an audience too! Not only
he would foam at the mouth about the red menace from the Roosevelt
administration, he would lambaste the so-called international Jewish
conspiracy. Plus, there were the Republicans in Congress and Senate
who were obstructionist to the FDR programs.
So who won? Historically speaking, FDR did. Who remembers Father
Coughlin? Nobody! Listening to righturds on the radio, you got feel
sorry for them. They will end up in the unemployment line along with
millions of Americans. While they are standing in line, they will
start their anti-communist rant to some poor slob who just happens to
be standing behind him who is too shy or too polite to tell him to
shut up. Then somebody in front of him will punch him in the mouth and
the rest of he people in line will join in. The man who assaults will
be some former Republican. Maybe Michael Savage should consider
retirement.
