Dumb Columnists disguised as Letters to the PD Vol 2 - "It's TYRANNY, I tells ya!!"
http://blog.cleveland.com/letters/2010/11/american_resistance_to_tyranny.html

Today is another special day.

It's a special day because Plain Freeper readers are graced with a familiar name in the LTTE section.

This propaganda pamphlet publishes letters from a likely-wealthy Shaker Heights curmudgeon piece of Faux-poisoned teabagger garbage named William A Reale so much, he may as well have his own column.

I don't know whether they think we don't notice or that they feel his hilarity will influence popular opinion. Either way, it's shamelessly pathetic.

Reading his almost bi-monthly hyperbole-drenched Quixotic swill can either make you laugh unintentionally or, upon realizing this dick waste of oxygen is dead serious, slouch down and facepalm until your eyeballs sink through your fingers at the sheer stupidity of it all.

Today, he quotes Jefferson and talks about that commie tyrannical Manchurian Candidate known as Barack Obama. If you find yourself ducking from imaginary Abe Simpson cane swings, don't feel bad. You're not alone:

Just about every letter to the editor published on Sunday blamed the tsunami of votes for Republicans in the recent midterm election on greedy, stupid, uninformed, big-business, mean-spirited, personal-responsibility, anti-constitutional zealots. President Barack Obama, of course, escaped any blame, despite the tyrannical rule of his regime that triggered the incredible Republican victory.

Thomas Jefferson defined tyranny as oppressive power exerted by government. President Obama's penchant to shove abhorrent laws (sometimes not read or understood by his government) down the throats of millions of outraged Americans seems quintessentially tyrannical to me, and deserving of votes for the non-Obama party.

William A Reale, Shaker Heights




Do you have anything to add to this?

"the tyrannical rule of his regime"???

WHO TALKS LIKE THAT?



Oh yeah . . .

1. That's pretty much an every day occurrence in my local fishwrap.
It's usually the same assemblage of kooks, although we've seen a few new names over the past couple of years. Who talks like that? Paranoid schizophrenics? I seriously believe these people are mentally ill. Maybe they're not schizophrenic, but they certainly ARE paranoid.

3. "kooks" like this need to be involved in a massive DIE-off.
Not merely them, but their regressive, hyper-paranoid, racist and silly way of thinking. We're never going to get anything accomplished in this country thanks to FootShooter Parade participants such as this.

2. "WHO TALKS LIKE THAT?"
Somebody who doesn't mind being called a "capitalist-imperialist running dog".

4. Well, twenty-eigtht of the remaing thirty-two PD readers agree with him.
Lemme see...old white guy from Shaker who sees *gasp* Black Kids walking to school on his sidewalk, where that didn't happen in his corner of the world forty years ago.

5.  . . . and they don't even salute him.
:rofl: Although, something tells me this guy doesn't live anywhere close to people with skin darker than his coffee creamer.

7. I'd be willing to bet he gets 'saluted' once in a while.
Guy thinks he's 'Number One' with some of those kids.

8. Our pal Bill works for Jones Day Reavis Pogue.
Right-wing hack attorney sucking on the corporate teat for sustenance.

9. Sumbitch graduated college in 1955, so he's likely retired by now.
http://magazine.nd.edu/news/13507-more-letters-about-the-magazine-s-commencement-coverage/

And, of course, writes anti-Obama, anti-abortion screeds here also. Pretty easy when you're an oblivious Jaysus H Duffer unaffected by all the economic misery, because "he got HIS!"

I wonder if this idiot knows how easy it is to look up someone on the internet.
