The Political Peter Principle: An Example.
Would you like to sample the ultimate in self-delusion, right off the well-fatted hoof?
Rosie continued: “Every single thing this White House has done goes against the foundation of what our country was built on. For us to tell the United Nations we would ignore their doctrine and their resolutions, for us to say that we will not adhere to the Geneva Convention during this war. We are America, we are better than that. We were built on the foundation of freedom and truth and equality for all people. And the rich, corporate, horrible, horrible people who have been destructing and ruining everything this country was made on has been really unbelievably damaging to all of us spiritually, emotionally, monetarily.”
Rosie advised the audience to ignore any and all media in last days of the election race and to keep telling themselves “Kerry by a landslide!”
“Just remember this, don’t believe the media in these last nine days. Tell yourself every day when you wake up and every morning when you have a worry or a doubt or whether you believe FOXNEWS: Kerry by a landslide. Because America knows the difference between genuine and junk.”
Just in case you were wondering:
- United Nations: founded in 1946.
- Earliest Geneva Convention: 1864 (see this excellent reference guide).
- United States of America: founded 1776, formalized 1787.
- No, the Constitution does not mention either the United Nations or the Geneva Conventions.
- 54% of the households in the United States own stock in the corporations those “rich, corporate, horrible, horrible people who have been destructing and ruining everything this country was made on” run for us, by and large quite ably.
- Salaries in the United States are so high that the unions alone, were they to live on half their incomes for two years, could purchase the Fortune 1000 at the end of that period.
- The poorest quintile of the American population, if moved as they were to any European country, would qualify as “middle class.”
- There’s no such word as “destructing.”
Any further questions, Rosie?
Comments
“There’s no such word as ‘destructing.’”
But there should be. As in: “You just destructed Rosie O’Donnell’s idiot blather.”
Heck, I’d go so far as to endorse “destructify,” as in: “I admire your talents in the area of destructification.”
