Amid a wall of noise, some quiet voices- Columnist slams NY FREEP of Freaks
Pittsburgh Post Gazette ^ | Monday, August 30, 2004 | Dennis Roddy

Posted on 08/29/2004 10:20:16 PM PDT by pittsburgh gop guy

There actually were Bolsheviks at the march yesterday. More properly, there were Bush supporters who dressed as Bolsheviks. They had put together some brilliant signs, illustrated in Soviet realist style, showing John Kerry wielding a worker's hammer, depicting Marx, Lenin, Engels and Kerry in heroic profile. The signs were emblazoned "Communists for Kerry," and "The next generation building communism for America."

"We're just spoofing," one of the men told me. They'd linked up on Free Republic, the ultra-right-wing Internet site and, well, when these people link up, stuff like "Communists for Kerry" is one of their more polite ideas. They slipped into the march and nobody seemed to notice, object or recognize that they weren't actually communists and weren't actually for Kerry. Many of the signs yesterday said, "Bush Lied," but when his supporters do it, it still works.

Gee, maybe because the real Kerry supporters are so whacked out and stupid that this parody fit right in? The two or three honest and patriotic Democrats that may be left will have to destroy their party in order to save it!

If that scribbler thinks this forum is "ultra-right-wing" then I invite him to conduct an interview with me and a few select friends - then he'd know what ultra-right-wing really is!

Kudoes, FReepers! And the really telling part is that your signs extolling Marx and Lenin didn't raise any suspicions in that leftist cabal. That says it all!

Some parts of that site are rir-roaring hilarious. Here are some great Commies For Kerry slogans and protest chants:

THE ABOVE SLOGANS FOR COPYING AND PASTING AS TEXT:


- We cure weak liberalism with strong communism!

- End the two Americas! Create one homogeneous welfare state!

- Stronger on taxes at home! Respected by socialists of the world!

- Stop the economic boom created by G.W.Bush!

- Hard work and personal responsibility is what’s wrong with this country!

- Get unemployment back above 5.6%!

- Put America back into the crapper so the world will like us again!

- The welfare state = the shining city on the hill!

- Americans should be ruled by educated elites because they are too stupid to think for themselves!

- End tax cuts! Stop the menace known as “success!”

- Eradicate SMALL business! We need BIG government!

- Give each homeless person a rich Republican widow!

Where can I get me one of those signs? The optional accessory signholder ain't bad either.

I'm over at the site now and I am dying!!! Thess slogans are all great but my favorites are:

- End tax cuts! Stop the menace known as “success!”
- Give each homeless person a rich Republican widow!
- Americans should be ruled by educated elites because they are too stupid to think for themselves!

Sorry about misspelling your name on the last post, I was trying to get done before my lunch break was over. I see Meek got the graphic posted--hope you like it. :)

Leftists aren't exactly used to being made fun of.

They think it's a hate crime to deviate from the Party, anyway, so one can easily understand why they're so upset.

This media comrade obviously is in need of re-education.

Properly speaking, the dialectically correct designation is, "Right Wing Christian Patriot Militia Extremist Wacko"... (or at least, that's what *I* call myself... at least whenever any Lieberals can hear me...)
