The Nutroots don’t seem particularly enamored of any of their Democratic candidates for President in ‘08.
It’s not too hard to find Leftard bloggers bashing the front runner, Hillary, for being — well, for being Hillary:
The ease with which Clinton disregards such fundamental liberal values is even more disappointing than her rejection of liberalism…
Even the Koskids hate her:
Hillary Clinton believes in the same radical corporate-managed trade and labor policies supported by the Bush Administration.
Hillary is too conservative for most nutrooters.
Hillary has also been accused of acting “too black”when campaigning in front of black people.
And Jesse Jackson has accused Barack Obama of acting “too white”. Others complain that Barack is too soft and inexperienced, and his campaign is one political gaffe after another.
And Edwards, too effeminate while hiding behind his wife.
If only the Nutroots had a candidate who was truly in line with all of their views on America. Like this guy:
BIN LADEN ‘08: DEMOCRAT FOR CHANGE
_____
Let’s take a closer look at Bin Laden the Candidate and how he stacks up against the field from the perspective of the nutroots:
- He’s to the left of all the candidates on the War on Terror, and would call for not just the immediate withdrawal of all troops who are in Iraq and Afghanistan, but would re-deploy al those troops to wipe Israel off the face of the earth — a double-victory for the Left.
- He’s much greener than Edwards (or the Goracle, for that matter) — hell, the guy rides a camel to work and lives in a freak’n cave (compared to Edwards’ 28K sq ft home with the driveway full of SUVs).
- He didn’t vote to authorize President Bush to invade Iraq.
- Impeach Bush? Hell, he’d cut his head off to make the nutroots happy!
- Unlike Obama, nobody questions whether or not Bin Laden is “Arab enough”, or doubts his connection to Muslim upbringing.
- Bin Laden would assuage all the open-border proponents by making sure our borders are completely wide open to every person of color who wants to come here. Assuming they are Muslim or willing to convert or submit.
TOO FUNNY !!!
it would be funnier if it weren’t so credible.
The part I thought was most hilarious was OBL sounding like he’s from the Cato Institute or Club for Growth: “To conclude,” bin Laden says, “I invite you to embrace Islam.” He goes on to say: “There are no taxes in Islam, but rather there is a limited Zakaat [alms] totaling 2.5 percent.” HAHA- I expect to hear right-wing reconsiderations any time: “Hmm… that Bin Laden guy, has some pretty good ideas on taxes…”
Well, I know you’re just having fun, Robbie, but aside from OBL’s advocacy of the flat tax the most obvious American parallel with this religious fundamentalist is … other religious fundamentalists. Of course our variety does’t operate by beheadings but they surely share the goal of religiously constrained laws and behavior.
