Anyhow, accompanying the crayon scribblings of this e-mail was the following graphic:

The Gadfly chuckled heartily to himself after viewing this graphic, yawned, went and performed some long neglected yard work, fixed a couple of loose spokes on on the front tire of his motorcycle, replaced the litter in The Catfly's litter box, experienced a splendidly satisfying bowel movement, and then spent several semi-distressful moments attempting to decide whether to have the Vegetable Beef or the Clam chowder soup for lunch. After his hearty lunch, The Gadfly then walked over to his computer and with a few flicks of his nimble fingers over the Cheetos residue stained keyboard, within seconds had used the Google to demolish every single statement on the graphic as either an outright lie or major distortion of the truth.
The Gadfly's point here is that this is how easy it is to debunk right-wing, conservative bullshit.
So, earlier this week, the infamous Donald (is there any other?) was teasing the scandal starved maroons in the mainstream media about some ginormous news story that he was going to reveal on Wednesday that would shake the world of American politics to it's foundation and completely change the complexion of this year's Presidential race. El Trumpbo even had one of his lackeys seductively tweet something about "someone" "possibly" uncovering evidence of Michelle Obama having filed and then withdrawn divorce papers against Barack Obama a decade or so ago (keeping it classy eh Donald? - you piece of elitist shit). Anyhow, turns out the "big story" was that The Trumpster was making a public offer to Obama that he would donate $5 million to Obama's favorite charity if Obama would provide Trump with copies of his college transcripts and his passport.
Sound familiar?? Hint . . . scroll up just a tad and focus eyes firmly on posted pic/graphic and read studiously.
This is the kind of garbage that the stupid wingnuts fall for - over and over again. And no matter what amount of evidence is provided to these people which demolishes their cherished lies, they just simply out and out reject reality and continue to believe that which is not believable. Is it any wonder that one of the most top-rated shows on cable tv these days is about brain-dead zombies? It's because we have a nation fucking full of them right now and they get all of their worldly news and information from Fox "News", Rush Limpballs and idiotic viral e-mails like this one that The Gadfly received.
Let's just hope for all of our sake that come November 6, more reality-based Americans show up at the polls than do the zombies.
