Oh dear. The level of desperation from the right is almost palpable these days. Over at National Review (also cross-posted at his blog), the delightfully named Bill Whittle has dredged up a 2001 tape in which Barack Obama said the civil rights movement had become “court-focused” when he felt it actually needed to “put together the actual coalitions of power through which you bring about redistributive change.”
Ah ha! There’s that awful word again: “redistribution” (aka: socialism, Marxism, Communism). Obama also said “the Supreme Court never entered into the issues of redistribution of wealth” — so again, he clearly was advocating socialism. More proof that he’s a commie bastard.
“He’s at the end of the line now,” says Whittle after spiraling through his Dante-inspired rhetorical escapade. “This discovery will hurt Obama much more than Joe the Plumber,” And this final gem: “There is a special hell for you ‘journalists’ out there, a hell made specifically for you narcissists and elitists… a fiery lake of irrelevance, blinding clouds of obscurity, and burning, everlasting scorn.”
Well, that was rather laughably flamboyant, don’t you think?

And on a lighter note…
What, you don’t think that “a fiery lake of irrelevance, blinding clouds of obscurity, and burning, everlasting scorn.” isn’t high comedy? I did a full Danny Thomas spit-take when I read that.
Palin’s “War on Science”… well, that brings me to another post I’m working on at the moment, so thanks for that.
