The Frog and the Scorpion

The "progressive" (read: Libertarian) blogs have gone nuts in response to Hillary's blowout in West Virginia. I could not believe my eyes when I saw R.J. Eskow's piece in Huffington Post:

Even The Racists Are Deserting Hillary

Nowhere in this article do we see even the slightest attempt to offer proof that a single voter in the Democratic primary cast his or her ballot on the basis of racial solidarity or racial antipathy. Who needs evidence when we have presumption?

And look where presumption leads us: The "racists," sayeth Eskow, went to John Edwards, who got seven percent of the vote, even though he dropped out of the contest some time ago.

And how does Eskow know that the Edwards vote came from racists? He doesn't.

Isn't reality fun when you can make it up as you go along?

Of course, in his reality rearrangement, Eskow has managed to insult not only Hillary supporters but also those who, like myself, preferred John Edwards.

Incidentally, Eskow's hallucinations stand in sharp contrast to the words of Obama campaign manager David Plouffe, who has admitted that any white person who would allow racism to tinge his vote long ago migrated to the Republican Party. In other words, there are no racist Democrats -- according to Obama's own expert!

What amazes me is that clowns like Eskow say that the contest is over. If it is, then why the vituperation and insult? Why are the Obamabots doing their best to shrink the voting base in November?

I honestly think they can't help it: They do not care about winning; they care only about using Hillary as the target for all of the pent-up rage they have felt all of their lives. "I hate Mom" = "I hate my Ex-" = "I hate Hillary." That's why they continue to pursue an utterly counterproductive course of action.

The Scorpion asks the Frog to carry him across the river. The Frog says "You'll sting me." "No I won't," says the Scorpion. "If I did, we'd both drown." So off they go, the Scorpion carried on the Frog's back -- and sure enough, halfway across, the sting comes. "It doesn't make sense!" cries the dying Frog. "You've killed us both. It's not logical!" "You're right," answers the Scorpion. "But I can't help it. It's my character."

Many of you feel that the battle against McCain justifies tolerating these daily stings. I ask this: Do you enjoy being insulted?

The Kossacks consider Clinton and Edwards voters to be dogs who, come November, will go where they're kicked. Do you want to justify and encourage that attitude?

Visualize their faces. Close your eyes and see the image: The faces of Eskow, Kos, Huffington, Aravosis, Sullivan, Marshall, Brazile, Dean. They are all sneering at you in gleeful contempt -- because they know that you will vote as THEY direct, no matter how many times they spit in your face.

Those haughty bastards are laughing at you. Laughing at you.

There is only one way to wipe away their obnoxious smirks.

There is only one way to teach them the rewards of arrogance.

There is only one way to teach them that a party cannot win a national contest while alienating half of its own members.

There is only one way to teach all future Scorpions not to sting the creatures on whom they depend.

DO NOT VOTE FOR OBAMA. EVER.

UPDATE: At least one DUmmy is starting to understand that "racist baiting" the Clinton voters was a bad idea. Unfortunately, the author blames outside Republican forces, not the progressives. What evidence proves the existence of these GOP "outside agitators"? None. This dishonest and cowardly attitude reminds me of the fundamentalist who, when he gets a boner for a woman other than his wife, blames the Devil.
