Sunday morning musings...

[billay]

So I’m walking through a bookstore the other day and I see a copy of Anne Coulter’s new book “Godless” and it got me thinking. As an organizational entity, I’ve really got to hand it to the right wing. They have their stuff together. From party leaders, coat-tail riders, talking heads and red staters, they are all on point. They find their message and communicate that message through every possible channel, pounding it away. Hence Coulter’s new book, she may be the closest thing nature has every produced to the anti-woman, but at least she’s a team player. Things aren’t looking all that great for the righties and the God push will constitute the main thrust of their attack for the mid-term elections. “We have God, the democrats don’t.” There seem to be signs that the religions right has become a little disillusioned with the Republicans, so their song and dance is all the more practiced this go round. Gay marriage, flag burning, prayer in schools, all attempts to pull at the heart strings of the church electorate. Anyway, all this got me to thinking, if there is a feeling of disenfranchisement among the religious right, what more could the republicans do to entrench themselves in the grand voting bloc that is red-state america?

 

Then it hit me.

 

Remember the movie Simone? Al Pacino is a talent scout who’s career is on the wane and to revitalize his slowing career he invents the hottest new runway talent the world has ever seen. Glamour personified, she’s beautiful, articulate, funny, self depricating, and devoted to the man who discovered her. The only problem is, she doesn’t really exist. She a computer generated diva. Bourne of digital bits in a technology age, the only place that she can be seen is on a TV screen. She’s perfect for the masses, impossible to meet. She has no candid moments, nothing to shatter the illusion. No paparazzi shots of her in her bathrobe and slippers, standing on her front lawn, cigarette hanging out of her mouth as she picks up dog poop off her lawn with a torn off piece of the local paper. She’s always in perfect form. The world swallows her, hook line and sinker. So much so that when Al’s conscience gets the better of him and he decides to shut ‘ole Simone down. The police have him picked up on suspicion of murdering her.

 

What does this have to do with politics you say?

 

Enter the digital Jesus Christ. He’s come back to tell us that the Republican have it right, that the road to salvation runs through an amendment against gay marriage. He’s out in front of America showing us the light, that also just happens to be same schtick that the righties are pushing. Once your candidate has been endorsed by the allmighty, who else do you need to pander to? Forget N.O.W. or the teamsters, or the newspapers. The stamp of approval of Jesus is a golden ticket to the White House for all eternity. There’s only one problem. He can’t be Chist if he’s not flesh and bone. So what does that make him? You’ve got it, the anti-christ, The fater of lies, divider of the world and harbinger of armageddon.

 

Thanks a lot Republicans.
