Brave KG

“KG” writes a balanced, rational and measured post in response to a planned protest by Islamic students.

go shag a camel, you creeps!
Yes, it’s a deliberately offensive header. As it should be, when talking about the camelshagging raghead followers of the paedophile prophet.

Tell us what you really think, KG.

But apparently there’s a simple solution to the problems posed by these “camelshagging ragheads”: speak up.

Grow some balls, Westerners. Speak up. Speak up at least for your children’s sakes if not for yourselves… Consider this–those of us alive right now may be the only ones who can save the West.
Do it, or measure your daughter for her first burqa…..

And how is “KG” speaking up? By posting this filth behind the safety of a pseudonym on an obscure blog read only by other brave pseudonymous bloggers. Oh, and by calling for the assassination of President Barack Obama and the murder of lazy welfare recipients.

Then again, maybe poor KG’s just got his cranky pants on at the moment and he’ll be thinking a lot more rationally in a few months.

please excuse me while I go and strangle something…
I’ve stopped smoking….

Andrew Bolt:

Why is it that whenever you hear of a politician being physically attacked by a protester, you immediately conclude: almost certainly of the Left, and probably a green?

KG (of Teh Right, and definitely not a “green”):

I’m an old man now and have never for a moment thought that the asssassination (sic) of a President would be a good thing for America. Now I’m not so sure… If this man serves… a full term America may not recover from the damage done to her. The traitorous filth – installed by the media and gullible fools looking for salvation via the half-bred fixer – are on course to destroy the Republic. If it takes a bullet to avert that, then so be it.

What is it with Teh Left Teh Right nutbags of any political persuasion and violence?

Two Keiths caught out

Back in university I was torturously required to trawl through the writings of redeemed Maoist Keith Windschuttle, chiefly The Fabrication of Aboriginal History and The Killing of History. A summation of Keithy’s position is that history has, like, gone all left-wing and stuff, full of moral relativism and literary deconstruction and hermeneutics. Historians today – even really good ones like McIntyre and Simon Schama – are too lazy, too perverted by other disciplines, or just smoke lots of dope and make shit up. History should be about the facts, man, just like a science with lots of checking and double-checking and inscrutability of evidence. And because the intrepid white settlers who exiled, starved, poisoned and shot Aborigines in Tasmania didn’t write it all down, then none of it happened (kind of like Andy Bolt’s ‘name ten’ theory, only with bigger words).

Given Keith’s noble defence of fact-checking and meticulous attention to detail it was great to see him duped by a well-worded but factually baseless bit of pseudo-science, submitted to Quandrant, the conservative quarterly that Windschuttle edits. The piece claimed, amongst other things, that entire populations could be innoculated from malaria by genetically-programmed mosquitos. It referred to specific people, institutions and events but the theories and propositions it offered were bunk. Seems like Keith the rigorous checker and his sub-editing team were asleep at the wheel - not that you’d know it, reading Windschuttle’s retort, which still claims the moral high ground.

He’s not the only right-winger whose fact-checking is awry. This quote, attributed to Roman philospher Cicero in 55BC, has been doing the neo-con rounds for a while:

The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.

And don’t the kids love it. Amongst the comments at Crusader Ratbag, “…this message is so ancient…”, “and they say history doesn’t repeat itself” and “it’s always interesting reading commentary from generations ago”. Of course, it’s all bullshit. A debunking at Snopes concludes that:

  • It’s unlike something that Cicero would say
  • There are no intact writings from Cicero after 60BC
  • The earliest mention of it comes in 1965 from a novellist, not a historian

When will teh Right get it right.

* dinga – dinga – danga – danga *

Sunday’s list:

Make driveway border. vacuum house.washing.clean kitchen.get river rocks.tidy house.fix logfire.plant maple tree.make roofing ladder.mesh for rainwater sump.fix rainwater tank.measure ethernet cable.clean windows.clean car.fix pickup indicator light.fit bench grinder.spray weeds.make 12vdc power supply.clean shotgun.answer emails.make birdbath.clean boots.

*sigh*

Mind you, it’s slightly less insane than Eugene’s list of things to do.

If you’re living in America, before the end of the year you need to:

1) buy a gun
2) convert your stock and cash to gold and bury it somewhere safe
3) stock up on gas, light bulbs and anything else a leftist might not want you to have.

4) …
5) Profit!!1!

Further to Bridgit Gread’s excellent post demolishing the wingnuts’ desperate and infantile claim that the current financial crisis in the US is the Democrats’ fault, we have the Tardosphere’s most courageous defender of free speech, KG, indulging in some more shameless obfuscation:

The left — those wholly responsible for the subprime crisis — are complaining on every outlet that they “had a deal” that would have passed into law to allow the rescue of the financial industry but for the intercession of John McCain.
[...]

KG, who appears never to have hatched an original idea, is quoting here from fellow right-wing initialism GW of Wolf Howling, who helpfully illustrates his own execrable post with the following diagram:

Cute. But like so many wingtards, GW neglects to tell the whole story.

Here’s the second diagram from the educational Economix 4 Cockhedz series, which illustrates how free-market capitalists can socialise their losses when their avarice catches up with them (and the people they’ve exploited) and everything goes to shit:

See? Let no one say we’re not all about balance here at GrodsCorp.

UPDATE: The $US700 billion ($840 billion) “bailout” package has been approved. I hope you swallowed, free-market capitalism.

The denizens of the Rightardsphere have been busy rubbing several layers of skin off themselves since Sarah Palin was announced as John McCain’s vice-presidential running mate in the forthcoming US election — but perhaps none so vigorously as GrodsCorp’s favourite rhyming doctor, John “TingTong” Ray.

After reproducing a fawning post by US blogger Dick McDonald — in which he declares, among things, “My first impression is that we may have found our Margaret Thatcher”! — das gut Herr Doktor yesterday took the adulation one teensy-weensy step further:

I predict that she will one day be President of the United States.

Level-headed, insightful and well researched — as usual. Who could possibly argue?
