I Love the Smell of Burnt Cortisol in the Morning

Man, the brains are just a-fryin’ out there.

You’ve really really really got to go watch the video over at Balloon Juice of the botched and bungled flaggots hanging out at a Glenn Beck event in what appears to be a Hooters banquet room.  It’s a treat.

Yes, yes, this is the infamous videotape in which them “brainwashin’ books” (!!) at them faintsy-pants colleges is/are railed against by some wretched huddled human mass apparently yearning to breathe free, but you really need to gird your loins, grit your teeth and make yourself watch the whole thing just so you can see what a bunch of sad, sad wastrels these ignoramusi be, and what a mealy-mouthed, shouty, letter-to-the-editor spewing, property-line disputing, tooth-shrivellingly tedious bunch of old weather-balloons they are.

Mister John Cole, ladies and gentlemen:

The best part about all the attention the tea parties will get the next couple of days is that it will all be on film. The usual suspects are already trying to do damage control, pretending that they will have been infiltrated by no-gooders (who else- Soros funded ACRON!), but that is pure nonsense, and the country is going to get a good look at some pure, undiluted, right-wing crazy.

This righteous rant in the Daily Beast boils it down for what is left of the GOP:

What about the Republican Party right now? Isn’t it on radio and TV claiming to be the party of fiscal responsibility and American power? Bypassing the stupidity of these claims, I am on radio, on what is called right-wing radio, and it is easy for me to see that my loudest colleagues, who compulsively repeat the cant of Conservatism for Dummies, are not sincere students of the Republican Party but rather barkers, hookers, establishmentarian jesters, cultists, and, in the worst instance, just thatch-headed whiners.

But don’t worry. You surround us. And you have teabags.

Morans.

Amen, amen!  I do think it’s worth revisiting just exactly what kind of chum that screechy disptick Michelle Malkin is laying out in what Cole terms “preemptive victimhood”:

“Get ready for the anti-Tea Party sabotage and smear campaign”For the next 9 days, the left-wing blogosphere and left-wing clueless pundits will hammer away with their unreality-based Tea Party smears.

And on the ground, the tax-subsidized and Soros-subsidized troops are going to try and wreak havoc every way they can. Many readers and fellow bloggers have seen signs that ACORN may send in ringers and saboteurs to usurp the anti-tax, anti-reckless spending, anti-bailout message.

“ACORN ACORN!!”, “SOROS!!”  Man, they really are speaking their own weird patois these days, aren’t they?

I don’t even think Malkin believes this shit anymore.  She’s just that cynical.  She knows how likely it is that someone from her own side is going to get overstimulated in all the excitement and go full-metal Excorcist crazy like Alex Jones did when their paths crossed at the DNC (an incident that will go down on my own list of Greatest Days EVAR, filed under “When Harpy Met Shouty”).  She’s trying to construct plausible deniability that the worst of the gun-humping, sheet-wearing, cousin-fucking, bomb-building goons who read her shit and who will doubtless be at these rallies next week are actually, you know, plants from The Other Side.

Somebody’s going to get fucking shot at one of these rallies.  These types are not known for their impulse control nor their willingness to travel as far as the hall bathroom unarmed.  They’re going to get all in a big group and get overexcited and somebody’s car will backfire and then we’ll have to deal with weeks of po-faced mourning as they milk the resulting tragedy for ratings on “Fox and Friends”.

You just wait.
