Holy crap - I just got a phone call from Dick Morris - it was a robocall + then a survey
I listened to his spiel about Obama's socialist agenda, how he alone is responsible for the debt, unemployment, he has a new book coming out - yada yada yada

Then they transferred me to a person to take a survey.

First question - which conservative leader inspires me.. I said John Huntsman because he is more moderate, just to piss them off.

Second question - How do you feel about Obama OPENING OUR BORDERS TO MUSLIMS? Me- what are you talking about?
He couldn't believe I didn't hear about this. I asked him if he was referring to radical Muslims, he said no - all Muslims.
I said so, and asked him if he cared about Buddhists coming to our country? How are they coming here? Don't they need a Visa, and if they are a terrorist they would be on a terrorist watch list so they couldn't come here. Are they coming thru the Canadian border?(lol). I told him that Obama has done more to disrupt Al Queda than Bush did... He finally hung up on me.

So this is it. This is how they are going to try to defeat Obama by scaring people into thinking that The Muslims are coming! The Muslims are coming!

Part of me wishes I continued to play it cool so I could hear what else they had to say... but anyone who knows me knows that I have a hard time keeping my mouth shut.


Assholes!

1. The Muslims are coming over our borders is an old AEI campaign

that got a lot of play from Cheney/Rumsfeld. It's at least from 2003 and has been laughed out of hand by anyone who knows anything about Latin America. But, that's where it comes from, anyway.

2. I got that shit two weeks ago.
Absolutely deplorable push poll solicitation. I sat through the vileness then got some telemarketer on the line. I respectfully (but firmly) told them I'm an Obama-supporting Democrat, I think Dick Morris is a douchebag, and to take me off their list.

I laughed so hard, that poor phone banker probably got a headache!

4. That must have been a toe-curling experience, to hear the Toe Sucker himself shouting down your
phone line at you!

8. My husband got an e-mail suggesting that Obama was allowing
Al Qaeda members into the US. Don't the right-wingers fly on airplanes? Don't they ever wonder what the TSA checks are about?

How can they fall for this nonsense?

12. The very sound of the voice of Dick Morris would send me into paroxysms of fear and loathing.
He is swine. Not squared; cubed. Like I had in my omelette this morning.

You could bet your house, your farm, your 1969 Toyota Corona Mark II, and your first born child that if Dick Morris says the sky is blue, fully expect to go outside to a Red Dawn.

Make no mistake. These people are scum. They are the turds in the punchbowl. And they know it.

And they don't care, because unlike many of us they get paid handsomely to say this shit.
