Send In The Clowns
The collection of right-wing diehards know collectively as the Conservative Political Action Conference, or CPAC, has descended on Washington, D.C. for their annual rage fest. Starting today and ending on Saturday, the right-wing clown car will disgorge such "stars" as Sen. "Tailgunner Ted" Cruz, half-term Governor and full time grifter Sarah "Winky" Palin, and birther silver spooner Donald "Rump" Trump. Even New Jersey Gov. and object-visible-from-space Chris "Krispykreme" Christie has been invited to speak, which shows that their hostility to the "media" outweighs (no pun intended) ideological purity.
The speakers' poo-flinging will predictably focus on Barack Hussein Muslim Community Organizer Commie Fascist Obama, some of whom will paint him as a tyrant, while others will paint him as a weak leader. The divisions in the wingnut ranks will be exposed for all to see: "libertarians" ready to shrink the Federal budget to zero and make Ayn Rand's garbage mandatory reading, American Talibangelists wanting to put the bible in every public school room and to take contraceptives out of every private bedroom, and the predatory big bidness sector that just wants the "freedom" to pollute, discriminate, and pay poverty wages to their employees after blocking attempts to unionize.
It's quite a collection of professional liars, misfits, paranoids and low-information goobers, and they wouldn't have it any other way.
