Hate At McCain/Palin Rally

I'm speechless....

Folks, these are our fellow Americans.



Such mindless vitriol and pre-programmed hate (courtesy of the sanctimonious right-wing gasbags of talk radio) awash in a cesspool of misguided nationalism masquerading as patriotism.

Warrenton, Missouri 12:31 AM

While checking the news and weather I came across a brilliant little piece by satirist Scott Bateman on Salon.com. The Audio track comes from a 1950's-era propaganda film aimed at keeping 'Murica's youth free from the Communist threat.

The visuals, however are Bateman's usual comic genius.

Listening to it is really squirm-inducing. I can almost see the red-blooded, all-American, dutiful little crewcuts gathered 'round the speaker...it's quite odd that the original producers of this tripe didn't see the irony in their own words.

It's pure, unadulterated McCarthyite paranoia at it's finest.



Enjoy.
