Oh fer' fucks sake:
Did President Obama and George Soros plot to murder 300 million Americans by dropping nuclear bombs? Yes! That is, according to right-wing activist Jim Garrow, who now claims to be a former intelligence officer. Erik Rush kicked off his radio show on Tuesday by reading from a Garrow article about how Obama planned to detonate nuclear weapons throughout the US until three heroes in the military stopped him.
Garrow also claims that “Bath House Barry” — after attempting to destroy the United States— will blackmail every politician, military leader and police officer in America to get himself a third term.
After 90 percent of the population has been eliminated, the only people left in the country will be the elites, including Obama and Valerie Jarrett, who will live in luxury bunkers.http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/obama-soros-conspiracy-nuke-america-and-kill-300-million-people-exposed
There are more audio clips at the link above if you have the stomach for this kind of vomit.
The Gadfly used to just ignore the demented rantings of these far right wingnuts, but then Bill Clinton and Barack Obama fairly won elections and the illness of right wing ideological malevolence, not unlike Mad Cow Disease, began to spread like a virus, to the detriment of the country as a whole.
Worse yet - this lunatic radio clown Erik Rush is a regular contributor on Fox "News" - which means he has access to a fairly powerful vehicle for spreading hateful bile like this farther and wider than if he were merely considered just your average street corner screaming nutcase. The fact that Fox even considers this psychopath of sufficient intellectual and personal integrity to frequently have him on their network as a guest contributor pretty much tells you all you need to know about Fox's penchant for placing infinitely more value on promoting hate-mongering prevaricators than they do on the business of imparting actual news and the truth to their viewers.
But setting aside the journalistic malfeasance and ethics corruption of Fox's "News" division, and as a side note to you dear readers, The Gadfly will tell you that he reached a point about mid way through Obama's first term that he was not going to sit back and let these right wing, flying monkey crackpots throw garbage like this out in to the public sphere of discourse unanswered.
If The Gadfly's conservative friends want to criticize President Obama and his policies, that is fine and great - we can sit down over a beer, look each other in the eye and have a sane debate about it - and The Gadfly does not doubt that there would be areas and issues that we could find common ground on. But when it comes to this wingnut, Tea Party looney toons bullshit which is nothing more than smearing and hating for smearing's and hating's sake, The Gadfly ain't having none of it - period. And thus The Gadfly assigned the mission to his self of exposing these repugnant freaks for who and what they are, debunking their infantile and outrageous lies and basically publicly filleting them with, in most cases, their own words, and ridiculing their bullshit to the point that most reasonable people will find them to be so toxic that they not only treat them like lepers, but also share their disgust of them with others.
The ultimate goal is to marginalize them to the point that their shrieking voices become nothing more than a little white noise in the background, meaning we know that they are still out there, but the voices of reason and sanity take the forefront and eventually come to dominate the national discourse.
It's a dirty job, but somebody has to do it dammit. You can thank The Gadfly for taking on such a nauseous task by sharing this shitty little blog with others.
