<h4 style="text-align: left;" align="left"><strong>Celebrating 40 Years of Stunning Mediocrity.</strong></h4>
<p>The American comedy institution SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE continues its tradition of not being funny, by throwing a 40th Anniversary Special and not being funny.</p>
<p>SNL 40 is not only Not Funny, it&#8217;s embarrassing, pathetic and painful. Why do these people put themselves through this? Why do they put US through this? Why do audiences keep watching? Excepting a few quality seasons during its formative years, and a handful of good gags and entertaining personalities through its history, SNL has never been a prime cut; longevity seems to be counting more towards SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE&#8217;s comedy legacy than actual quality.</p>
<p>SNL 40, broadcast by NBC on Sunday February 15, 2015, touted as &#8220;Comedy&#8217;s Biggest Stars Come Home,&#8221; boasts a studio audience that consists of everybody who is anybody (from Spielberg down), brings together past alumni, past hosts, shows montages of classic sketches and bits, only has time for a few musical numbers, showcases veteran cast re-doing classic bits, and retains an overall sense of undeserved mutual cock-stroking.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m not going to outline a laundry list of bits; in this overlong show, the bits themselves are irrelevant. It&#8217;s the overarching impact of this drudgerous wankfest; the cognitive dissonance of continually hearing how &#8220;good&#8221; it is and yet witnessing exactly the opposite. Bits which are poorly written and badly rehearsed, amateur timing from supposed professionals, forced laughter, titters where there should be guffaws, and sometimes, those uncomfortable silences into which your career spirals never to be resurrected again… We view this whole shenanigan with hands over our faces, peeking through the gaps in our fingers.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-22486" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="SNL 40 Dana Carvey Kanye West Mike Myers Wayne's World" src="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/SNL40_wayne_cap.jpg" alt="SNL40_wayne_cap" width="500" height="343" srcset="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/SNL40_wayne_cap.jpg 500w, https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/SNL40_wayne_cap-300x205.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px" /></p>
<p>It reminds me of the recent Monty Python reunion shows at the O2 arena (Jun 2014: <em>Monty Python Live (Almost)</em>); though that tour was a nostalgic success, even an artistic and commercial success, it was a complete failure in its attempt to recapture the timing and verve and urgency of youth. Which is what reunion shows like that &#8211; and this SNL one &#8211; are all about. Recapturing our youth. (And of course, selling advertising and merch to us in the process.) To the young or uninitiated, these shows will be a success or failure purely depending on NOW. To we who lived our youth through those original times, these shows succeed or fail on how well they recapture it. And let&#8217;s face it, they <em>can&#8217;t</em> recapture it. They will always only remain &#8220;failed attempts.&#8221; But it&#8217;s not just that metaphysical youth aspect &#8211; it&#8217;s the fact that when an old person tries to do something they did when they were young, it just doesn&#8217;t look right or read as well as it did when in their prime. It&#8217;s a terrible, sad fact of life.</p>
<p>Dan Aykroyd cannot <em>possibly </em>recapture the original &#8220;flavor&#8221; of his <em>Bass-O-Matic</em> sketch from the 70s. But he tries valiantly. And fails. In one of SNL 40&#8217;s first sketches, Aykroyd appears with that cheese-eating grin. He looks old. Really old. And fat. Camera pulls back and we see he is holding up a dead fish, a bass…</p>
<p>Silence.</p>
<p>Not even crickets. It&#8217;s just an old fat guy holding a fish. Now one would think that after all the lengths they&#8217;ve just gone to, of bashing us with the message that SNL is some kind of mythical laugh factory, that seeing the opening to the &#8220;classic&#8221; <em>Bass-O-Matic</em> sketch would elicit a cheer of recognition from the audience.</p>
<p>Silence. Because the studio audience (not the old stars, but the civilians) are too young to recognize this 35-year-old sketch! It was never one of the best sketches, but at least the performance in its heyday had a young, vital guy delivering his lines fitfully in a Pythonesque lightning strike. Now it&#8217;s just an old fat guy holding a fish. (At least with the 2014 Python shows, when Cleese came on with his dead parrot, stating, &#8220;I would like to register a complaint!&#8221; the audience&#8217;s rousing roar of recognition drowned out the pathos. Here, it was just pathos. This was devil&#8217;s territory from the get-go.) There was no way Aykroyd could attain the verve and urgency and timing of his youth. His speech was too slow for comfort, he missed putting one of the fish into the blender, he turned on the blender and it froze… His fake smile went on for miles, but the flop sweat on his soul was glistening hot…</p>
<p>You ask, &#8220;Why don&#8217;t they just pack it up?&#8221; Because this is what they do! What else CAN they do? This is how they made their bones. But recapturing the magic is definitely out of the question after a certain time…</p>
<p>Chris Rock gives a prolonged tribute to Eddie Murphy, who has gone the way of the dodo. The last quality thing he did was …um… uh… Then Eddie himself steps out to raucous applause and proceeds to do two minutes of SNL tradition (i.e. see paragraph 1).</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-22485" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="SNL 40 Andy Samberg Adam Sandler" src="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/SNL40_sandler_cap.jpg" alt="SNL40_sandler_cap" width="500" height="369" srcset="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/SNL40_sandler_cap.jpg 500w, https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/SNL40_sandler_cap-300x221.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px" /></p>
<p>The opening dance number with the somehow-talented Jimmy Fallon and ever-talented Justin Timberlake is spiffy. No complaints there; it retains that just-above-mediocre level that SNL sometimes attains on its absolute best nights.</p>
<p>Then the monologue with old hand Steve Martin (long since Not Funny himself, but somehow squeezing some last driplets of humor from his dead soul). During the monologue, Martin is beset on all sides by superstars who want to host, including Tom Hanks, Alec Baldwin, Chris Rock, Peyton Manning, Billy Crystal, Paul McCartney and Paul Simon&#8230; and then producer Lorne Michaels makes one of his many missteps, in his quest to attract a younger, more current audience (it&#8217;s a well-known fact that Michaels has final say on all decisions, good and bad, and all the artists cringe and bow to his every whim, as per WAYNE&#8217;S WORLD): Into this lion&#8217;s den of icons, Lorne decides to trot out… Miley Cyrus. Wait&#8211; Miley Cyrus?! Yes, that class-less hooker whore cunt Miley Cyrus shares the stage with the above legends who have done something useful with their lives. (No, tell us what you <em>really </em>think of Miley Cyrus, Poffy?) God knows how long she had to burnish Lorne&#8217;s perineum with that ball-licking trollop tongue to score this spot over other performers closer to the human race.</p>
<hr />
<p>McCartney tanked. Introduced by Gollum&#8211; I mean, Keith Richards, the Beatle&#8217;s minstrel, the songster, the legend &#8211; bombed horribly. In the first seconds of <em>Maybe I&#8217;m Amazed</em> we could hear his voice is non-existent. And it went downhill. Now I&#8217;ve even closed the gaps in my fingers. I don&#8217;t want to watch. I don&#8217;t want to hear, I don&#8217;t want to live. At the time of writing, you cannot even find this performance on YouTube &#8211; you have to go deep into the TV station&#8217;s archives to find it &#8211; which means everyone involved (from management to McCartney himself) unanimously agree that it was so bad, it needed the hiring of pro hackers to <em>restrict this video from being posted on YouTube at all costs. </em>They will fail, of course, because YouTube is a behemoth that will eat all of us alive and screaming in the end.</p>
<p>People clapped. You have to clap, right? But now you&#8217;re not clapping because you were blown away by the performance or inspired or even mildly impressed (unlike that artistic inspirational perfection of George Harrison and Paul Simon doing <em>Here Comes The Sun</em> and <em>Homeward Bound</em> on SNL in 1976); you&#8217;re clapping in pity, that a 75 year old man can kinda sing a Paul McCartney song with a band and everything. Isn&#8217;t that special? He gets so <em>excited</em> when they let him out of the home and the boys let him play with them, it&#8217;s good for him, great-granddad needs to make some new friends…</p>
<p>The saddest thing is that of McCartney&#8217;s tens of thousands of times performing this song, when it hit the atmosphere crackling like a million suns, this SNL 40 abomination (when it surfaces in mainstream social media) is going to be the most codified, the most batted about the internet like cats and tits, commented on and analyzed and critiqued by this generation of twitter twats. Weep for the death of legends. Weep for the death of youth. Weep for Gollum who lost his Precious.</p>
<hr />
<p>Some apologists might mitigate, Well, a <em>couple </em>of things were good (Billy Crystal asking, &#8220;You <em>are </em>Steve Martin, right?; a reasonably enjoyable &#8220;digital short&#8221; from Sandler and Sandberg, Will Ferrell&#8217;s <em>Jeopardy, </em>etc.). Of <em>course</em> a couple of things were good &#8211; these are professional comedians, and a stopped clock is right twice a day. But only a couple of things, in a show that is supposedly THE comedy lodestar of the United States? If you were making automobiles or heart monitors, this kind of percentage would be <em>entirely unacceptable.</em></p>
<p>If SNL 40 had kept it to nanosecond montages of old bits, it could have salvaged a shred of dignity. Instead, each personality dragging their feet onto that supposedly hallowed stage just prolonged an agony that wasn&#8217;t going to go away with the constant sucking of Lorne Michaels&#8217; dick.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s to the next 40 years of not being funny.</p>

<h4>The Rise and Fall of Stupid.</h4>
<blockquote><p>The news is no longer meant to be important. It&#8217;s just entertainment.<br />
&#8212; Steve Schmidt, McCain-Palin senior advisor.</p></blockquote>
<p>I don&#8217;t think much of <a href="//www.poffysmoviemania.com/tag/julianne-moore">Julianne Moore</a> as an actress. And I despise <a href="//www.poffysmoviemania.com/tag/sarah-palin">Sarah Palin</a> as a politician and human being. But Julianne Moore <em>playing</em> Sarah Palin? Priceless! In the HBO movie, GAME CHANGE, Moore gives a <em>bravura</em> performance as the Ditz Heard Round The World, the vice-presidential nominee in the 2008 American presidential election.</p>
<p><strong><a href="//www.poffysmoviemania.com/tag/steve-schmidt">Steve Schmidt</a>&#8216;s correct assessment of the 24/7 news cycle is why Sarah Palin became a household name at all: Entertainment.</strong> Rubbernecking car-crash entertainment. We all knew it was a bloodied and broken train wreck from the get-go &#8211; but we couldn&#8217;t turn away.</p>
<p>Directed by <a href="//www.poffysmoviemania.com/tag/jay-roach">Jay Roach</a> (no stranger to political films, with the Emmy-winning <a href="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/recount">RECOUNT</a>), GAME CHANGE focuses on a small section of the book of the same name (by <a href="//www.poffysmoviemania.com/tag/mark-halperin">Mark Halperin</a> and <a href="//www.poffysmoviemania.com/tag/john-heilemann">John Heilemann</a>, who make a cameo as reporters during the &#8220;amniotic fluid&#8221; bit), and is unabashedly All About Sarah. It was she whom the <a href="//www.poffysmoviemania.com/tag/john-mccain">John McCain</a> presidential campaign tapped to effect the &#8220;game change&#8221; so desperately needed in a moribund Republican field brimmed with sour old white guys (all polls indicated that if McCain chose <em>anyone</em> from the existing field &#8211; especially that haunted succubus Joe Lieberman &#8211; he would lose); it was she who was counted on to inject fresh blood into a cloying old boys&#8217; club with her aw-shucks tits-and-ass; and it was she who would ultimately grind the McCain campaign down to a bleating loser freak show with her unbounded ignorance and dogged refusal to educate herself.</p>
<p>Film follows her meteoric rise and as-meteoric fall, told from the points of view of Palin&#8217;s two top aides, Operations Chief Steve Schmidt (<a href="//www.poffysmoviemania.com/tag/woody-harrelson">Woody Harrelson</a>) and Senior Advisor <a href="//www.poffysmoviemania.com/tag/nicolle-wallace">Nicolle Wallace</a> (<a href="//www.poffysmoviemania.com/tag/sarah-paulson">Sarah Paulson</a>). Though they initially believed Palin was a &#8220;red light performer&#8221; (someone who didn&#8217;t do well in coaching, but turned on the charisma when the cameras were on), a few national interviews later, Schmidt came to the realization she &#8220;knew nothing&#8221; and that her selection as McCain&#8217;s running mate was his gravest tactical error in his hastiness to shake up the campaign &#8211; a campaign that had slipped from McCain&#8217;s grasp as soon as Barack Obama won the Democratic nomination.</p>
<h5><em>&#8220;Obama has changed the game.&#8221;</em></h5>
<p>GAME CHANGE is a true American Horror Story. By electing Barack Obama in November 2008, America dodged one of the most horrifying bullets in the history of the Republic: someone even more ignorant and incurious than W. Yes, Palin would have only been VP, but also would have been &#8211; as the commentators reminded us daily &#8211; only one 72-year-old heartbeat away from the Presidency. The experience of running a campaign for a certifiable imbecile gussied up to be a figurehead was so telling on Schmidt and Wallace &#8211; they were so put off by Palin&#8217;s ignorance and their own begrudging promotion of that ignorance &#8211; that they came over to the sensible side! They might not refer to themselves as Democrats, but they sure as hell ain&#8217;t Republicans no more, as their constant pusses on MSNBC attest.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-13390 size-full" title="GAME CHANGE Julianne Moore Sarah Palin" src="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/GameChange_caption.jpg" alt="" width="438" height="309" srcset="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/GameChange_caption.jpg 438w, https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/GameChange_caption-300x211.jpg 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 438px) 100vw, 438px" /></p>
<p>Asked their opinions on the film and book, neither of them deny anything, both commenting their portrayals are commendable &#8211; even though the film fully places the blame on Schmidt&#8217;s shoulders for vetting Palin without asking her one policy question. Harrelson&#8217;s Schmidt laments this fact more than once, and is man enough to take the burden of blame. And real life Schmidt is man enough to do the same, one of his many strong points &#8211; as a human being and a sensible Republican (which is an oxymoron that just means <em>non-</em>Republican nowadays).</p>
<p>Julianne Moore &#8211; with the help of makeup, mannerisms and speech &#8211; IS Sarah Palin. Not overplaying, not satirizing, not poking fun; a full-bodied performance that captures everything we know of Palin, from her confident stump persona to her ingratiating wink, from her shrikey vocal stylings to the dropping of her g&#8217;s. Also, those blank looks she gives her advisors could have been played as ass-klown, instead, Moore chooses to mix in wonder and frustration and hurt. We would never see these actual faces from Palin, so Moore&#8217;s performance is doubly commendable.</p>
<p><a href="//www.poffysmoviemania.com/tag/ed-harris">Ed Harris</a> is a very sympathetic, though foul-mouthed, John McCain (every second word is &#8216;fuck&#8217;, as in real life); <a href="//www.poffysmoviemania.com/tag/peter-macnicol">Peter MacNicol</a> and <a href="//www.poffysmoviemania.com/tag/ron-livingstone">Ron Livingstone</a> are advisors, and <a href="//www.poffysmoviemania.com/tag/jamey-sheridan">Jamey Sheridan</a>, who played the hick Devil in <a href="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/stand">THE STAND</a>, is McCain&#8217;s speechwriter (it all falls into place now!).</p>
<p>And what would a quasi-biopic of Palin be without &#8211; <a href="//www.poffysmoviemania.com/tag/tina-fey">Tina Fey</a>? Palin squirms in her seat watching SNL&#8217;s Fey take her apart simply by parroting her own words. Ironic, as Palin&#8217;s own words are parroted lines to begin with.</p>
<p>Through excellent special effects, GAME CHANGE inserts Moore as Palin into the real life news, interview situations and stumps we&#8217;ve all seen, encapsulating everything that mattered from that 2008 campaign &#8211; from Palin&#8217;s hasty selection, stunning rollout, &#8220;inspiring&#8221; convention speech, to the &#8220;Troopergate&#8221; controversy, the disastrous Couric interview, the flip-flop Bridge to Nowhere, the Family Values hypocrisy of her daughter&#8217;s pregnancy, the elitist $150,000 wardrobe, to the memorized Biden debate, going rogue, and down to the election night wire when she argued to make a concession speech alongside John McCain. And of course, we are made privy to the scarring backstage kabuki on each of these bytes.</p>
<p>Schmidt realized that trying to &#8220;teach&#8221; Palin anything for the Vice Presidential debate with Joe Biden was futile (an early scene shows tutors pointing out Germany on a map to her, and trying to outline the distinctions between the Iraq and Afghanistan wars), and resorts to making her memorize a few talking points that she would pivot back to no matter the questions. In other words, parroting lines, no better than a school kid cramming for a test she knows nothing about; no better than <a href="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/w-george-w-bush/">W prepped by Carl Rove</a>. Vindicating the horrifying fear we&#8217;ve always held that the country is run by a bunch of literal morons.</p>
<p>A refreshing aspect of this background look at the McCain-Palin campaign is that Schmidt and co. were well aware of the dumbass they had on their hands. When Katie Couric asks Palin which papers she reads, Schmidt rails at the TV monitor, &#8220;Name one fucking paper!&#8221; The whole room breaks out in sighs of disbelief and horror on Palin&#8217;s now-infamous reply: &#8220;All of them.&#8221; And Schmidt turns to Devil and bewails, &#8220;What have we done?&#8221; That&#8217;s never been portrayed before in such stark reality. For the sake of the campaign the advisors retained a bold front in the shadow of their pathetic figurehead, and at times it seemed like EVERYONE on the campaign must have been as mentally lethargic as Palin, for them to allow her to keep spouting such un-sense. But there are always people running things who &#8220;KNOW&#8221; what&#8217;s right and wrong. (That&#8217;s why people like Hannity and O&#8217;Reilly are unforgiveable: because they are NOT dunces, which means that the venal disinformation they promulgate is a CHOICE. They CHOOSE to be this evil and selfish and duplicitous.)</p>
<p>No real characterizations of any of the spouses or children &#8211; there is just too much else in this bustling movie to keep us entertained &#8211; with David Barry Gray playing Todd Palin like some nervous day-player sharing a bed with Julianne Moore pretending to be her husband. (Sarah doesn&#8217;t make it easy on him, climbing into bed with her hair up and her glasses on. Can anyone say No Chemistry?)</p>
<p>Sad yet funny: a gaggle of poor Down Syndrome babies play Palin&#8217;s retarded newborn son Trig. Probably the only person who exploits her Down Syndrome kid more than the parents who allowed their kids to curl up in Moore&#8217;s arms is Palin herself, who uses all her children as tools to promote her celebrity.</p>
<h5><em><strong>humanizing the inhuman</strong></em></h5>
<p>Palin is portrayed as a compassionate mother for deciding to birth Trig even though she was warned of his disability during her pregnancy. Let&#8217;s say it out loud that she didn&#8217;t choose to birth that poor kid because she&#8217;s compassionate, but because she&#8217;s an Anti-Choice fanatic (of course, she calls it &#8220;pro-life&#8221;). If she possessed a shred of human dignity, she would have aborted that kid and spared it the pain of being Sarah Palin&#8217;s kid. The engraved command from Jesus got lost in the mail.</p>
<p>And isn&#8217;t it the law of averages that a nudz like Palin would eventually have pumped out a Downie? I&#8217;m surprised that her <em>other</em> four didn’t come out retarded. Politically incorrect &#8211; or what everyone is thinking? Five young nudzes contributing their low rent genes to the human pool.</p>
<p>More &#8220;humanizing&#8221; as Palin takes a call from her son in Iraq. When she hangs up, she muses, &#8220;My son is safe.&#8221; And we feel a slight blade in our guts as we know she is trying to convince herself of her son&#8217;s wellbeing, against the reality which is exactly the opposite. We feel Moore&#8217;s performance conveying that she <em>has </em>to push thoughts like that out of her head if she is to go forward fake-smiling on the stump.</p>
<p>I have no sympathy for people who doggedly retain their ignorance past the point of being given the opportunity to learn. Palin birthing five kids is not a sign of her &#8220;humanity&#8221; but of her naïveté and libido. The ignorant should not be breeding! Palin has brought more ignorance into the world by raising her family under her aegis. And her underage daughter (against the tenets of her own &#8220;faith&#8221; and politics) also brought an ignorant little shit into the world, via father Levi Johnston, who cannot string one sentence together. Who in this world thinks spreading these low rent genes is beneficial to the human race? Other low rent genes. All these maroon-necks should be rounded up and swept into the Pit of Sarlacc! Don&#8217;t aggrandize them for the sake they were able to breed. Even turkeys and amoeba breed.</p>
<p>Which brings us to:</p>
<h5><strong><em>the real reason sarah palin is loathed by sensible people</em> </strong></h5>
<p>GAME CHANGE highlights not just Palin&#8217;s vast brain wasteland, but her incuriousness; the fact that she never <em>wanted </em>to improve herself. If Republicans and Sarah-philes think this is a hit piece, all they have to do is note where Palin is NOW in her world knowledge. Answer: stuck in exactly the same rut. She is a showbiz personality, not a politician or a &#8211; snort &#8211; &#8220;statesman.&#8221;</p>
<p>And that is why every sensible person in the world of politics (Republican, Democrat, Independent and non-voter alike) has no patience for the hockey mom with the no-sense mouth. It&#8217;s not that she is ignorant (every one of us is ignorant of many things at many points in our lives), it&#8217;s that she never sought to allay that ignorance with actual &#8220;learning.&#8221; When we see her shuffling through innumerable flash-cards, it is a cram session, not actual understanding of policies. She believed Saddam Hussein was behind 9/11, she didn&#8217;t know North and South Korea were separate countries, she thought the Queen ran Britain &#8211; and you know what, after all the training and prepping and travel and information &#8211; she STILL believes all that. Now, if you want to live in a fantasy world where Paul Revere was &#8220;makin&#8217; sure as he was ridin&#8217; through town to send those warning shots and bells&#8221; to &#8220;warn the British that they weren&#8217;t gonna be takin&#8217; away our arms…&#8221; that&#8217;s okay, you have the right to remain ignorant &#8211; <em>but keep your puss out of politics! </em>Not only that, when alerted to her egregious mistakes &#8211; <em>she maintains she is right!</em></p>
<p>That&#8217;s why sensible people hate her. And if you feel &#8216;hate&#8217; is too strong a word, how about despise, loathe, abhor [crack your thesaurus].</p>

Campbell Brown: &#8220;In fairness, probably most people couldn&#8217;t name a Supreme Court case &#8211; but most people are not campaigning to be vice president.&#8221; Fareed Zakaria: &#8220;It&#8217;s not that she doesn&#8217;t know the right answer &#8211; it&#8217;s that she clearly does not understand the question.&#8221; Yet the Straight Talk Express roared on into the potentially black future. (Actually, I take that back &#8211; it was <em>definitely</em> a &#8220;black&#8221; future &#8211; ha!)</p>
<p>Did Steve Schmidt really shout down Palin in that manner? In real life it&#8217;s a lot more &#8220;diplomatic&#8221; and roundabout, but I guess he had nothing to lose at that point. Schmidt starts going for the jugular around the time Palin realizes her celebrity and &#8220;goes rogue,&#8221; telling him blatantly, &#8220;I&#8217;m the one raising millions of dollars and if I&#8217;m the one they&#8217;re flockin&#8217; to see, I&#8217;m gonna do what I want!&#8221; Her lies about Troopergate (&#8220;I&#8217;m happy I was cleared of all charges&#8221;) and husband Todd&#8217;s involvement in the secessionist Alaskan Independent Party (&#8220;He checked the wrong box&#8221;) cause Schmidt to yell at her, &#8220;You cannot say these things if they are untrue. That&#8217;s not the way we run this campaign!&#8221;</p>
<p>The crowd fervor at Palin&#8217;s hate-filled, racist stump speeches (&#8220;Obama pallin&#8217; around with terrorists…&#8221;) spills into McCain&#8217;s stumps, and Schmidt advises McCain to dial back the rhetoric when they hear crowds shouting about Obama, &#8220;He&#8217;s a socialist!&#8221; &#8220;Terrorist!&#8221; and &#8220;Kill him!&#8221; Eventually culminating in a classic faceoff with that braindead redneck cunt who claims, &#8220;I read about Obama. He&#8217;s an Arab,&#8221; McCain snatching the mic back and educating her (and the crowd), &#8220;No, ma&#8217;am, he&#8217;s a decent family man, citizen, that I just happen to have disagreements with on fundamental issues, and that&#8217;s what this campaign is all about.&#8221;</p>
<p>We wonder why the filmmakers have such unrequited love for this guy (&#8220;This is not the campaign I wanted to run&#8221;), whose cowardice allowed Palin&#8217;s unchecked mouth to continue to the end of the campaign. &#8220;Cowardice,&#8221; you say? Yes. No matter the contention over McCain&#8217;s military service, flying heroic missions bombing women and children in Viet Nam, or his POW record and alleged torture, the facts during this campaign speak for themselves. When asked by Schmidt to step in and put the brakes on Palin he declines, &#8220;Not gonna happen, Stevie boy. She might go after <em>me.</em>&#8221; War Hero.</p>
<p>McCain watches Obama newscasts with growing humility and awe. Every time we see snippets of Obama, it is heady, exhilarating, tear-jerking. How could the Republicans compete by putting up a parrot that they were teaching lines, against this constitutional law professor? And to then put the parrot up to denigrate the law professor for being a &#8220;community organizer&#8221; as if that was a bad thing? (And isn&#8217;t that one of the strangest elements of the McCain Campaign&#8217;s final legs &#8211; that it seemed like Obama was running against <em>Palin</em>?) We remember that time in our veins, when Obama&#8217;s intelligence contrasted the outgoing president&#8217;s idiocy, and how his eloquence contrasted with the stuttering venality of the old guy with the tits-and-ass sidekick. In other words, the rest of the book <em>Game Change</em> is just <em>waiting </em>to explode onscreen…</p>
<p>Tina Brown (<em>The Daily Beast</em>): &#8220;The real revelation in GAME CHANGE: Campaigns turn our politicians into lunatics.”</p>
<p>Luckily, the campaign did nothing to affect Sarah Palin. She was already a lunatic.</p>

Political commentator Maddow takes issue with Sarah Palin citing Reagan&#8217;s &#8220;shining city on a hill&#8221; and &#8220;freedom not being passed in the bloodstream, but fought for…&#8221; Many other Repubs cite this supposed plaudit from Reagan, never mentioning that those quotes are from a Reagan radio ad <em>advocating against Medicare,</em> warning that it was going to rob America of freedom!</p>
<p>The movie does not mention this venal misinformation. Just one more piece of crap from out of the mouths of Republicans.</p>

<h4>Set to Spin: How Sarah Palin Saved America by Losing the Election.</h4>
<p><a href="//www.poffysmoviemania.com/tag/sarah-palin">Sarah Palin</a>, the most polarizing and laughable &#8220;politician&#8221; to ever shamelessly, undeservedly grace a world stage, has her laundry cleaned in this spin-doctored hallelujah chorus. When she ran for the vice presidency of the United States in 2008, she was defeated; when she returned to her post as Governor of Alaska, she quit; when she had the chance to run for a presidential candidacy, she declined. Writer-director <a href="//www.poffysmoviemania.com/tag/stephen-k-bannon">Stephen K. Bannon</a> must have been thinking about someone else when he titled his witless encomium THE UNDEFEATED.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1691" style="margin: 5px;" title="THE UNDEFEATED Sarah Palin Todd Palin" src="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Undefeated_caption.jpg" alt="Undefeated_caption" width="300" height="328" srcset="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Undefeated_caption.jpg 300w, https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Undefeated_caption-274x300.jpg 274w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" />In this hedonistic exercise piled neck-deep with talking heads and former staff and flunkies of Palin all effusing over what a blameless demi-god she is, the person I feel most sorry for is the director. Poor Stephen K. Bannon. He wants to fuck Sarah Palin so badly. And that big girl&#8217;s blouse Todd keeps being her husband. So sad.</p>
<p>Poor Stephen K. Bannon. His burning love is unrequited: Palin herself &#8211; though giving the production her &#8220;blessing&#8221; &#8211; doesn&#8217;t appear in it, except in archive footage, though we do hear snatches of her nasal whine reading passages from her audiobook. So sad.</p>
<p>The opening titles inform us THE UNDEFEATED was inspired by Palin&#8217;s book <em>Going Rogue: An American Life </em>(a ghost-written hit piece blaming all Palin&#8217;s shortcomings and mistakes on Everyone Else). More like &#8220;inspired by the tenting in Stephen K. Bannon&#8217;s pants.&#8221; How else can we perceive this one-note symphony of sophist mendacity?</p>
<p>As the film wears on, it becomes less a contradictory tribute to her outsider status (like every politician, she likes to claim she is not a politician, but a folksy down-home gal who just happens to have been in politics for the last 22 years), and leans gradually and subtly on what her true agenda seems to be: End Times&#8230;</p>

<div id="attachment_30815" style="width: 260px" class="wp-caption alignleft"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-30815" class="wp-image-30815 size-full" title="THE UNDEFEATED Sarah Palin" src="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Undefeated_missalaska.jpg" alt="Undefeated_missalaska" width="250" height="334" srcset="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Undefeated_missalaska.jpg 250w, https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Undefeated_missalaska-225x300.jpg 225w, https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Undefeated_missalaska-100x134.jpg 100w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px" /><p id="caption-attachment-30815" class="wp-caption-text">Miss Alaska 1984: <br />&#8220;&#8230;such as the Iraq such as&#8230;&#8221;</p></div>
<p>Any sensible person, myself included, would be willing to give Palin credit for her accomplishments. She was obviously canny enough to become the mayor of Wasilla and then the governor of Alaska. Apply Peter Principle here. Trying to rise above her stature in Alaskan politics was her undoing &#8211; she reached her level of incompetence. (She and her &#8220;Palin-drones&#8221; might argue that it rocketed her into the public eye, riches and power.) And though no one should fault her for not knowing where Iraq was on a map (we all have to look it up for the first time at some point), her problem/downfall is that she never <em>wanted</em> to know. And I bet she <em>still </em>doesn&#8217;t know. And that&#8217;s the problem with Sarah Palin. This incurious, anti-education, anti-science sociopath stepped into the vice presidential candidate&#8217;s ticket with no thought to the geopolitical world at large. But she had facial reconstruction surgery and did her hair.</p>
<p>She&#8217;s an acknowledged dunderhead who thrives on being one. Further, she accuses anyone smarter than her of elitism; she considers any question she cannot answer a &#8220;gotcha&#8221; question; and she promotes stupidity and anti-science to a whole swathe of foaming followers stupider than her, who are loaded springs of social chaos waiting to happen.</p>
<p>All of us encounter situations where we know our knowledge is inadequate to see us through, so we acquire the knowledge needed to move forward. Not Palin. She has rutted in her ignorance since Day One, not only incurious, but intemperately blaming those around her for her incompetence and idiocy, doubling down on incorrect statements rather than typing a few words into Google and acquiring the most basic details to find out that Paul Revere didn&#8217;t &#8220;warn the British&#8230; sending warning shots and bells.&#8221; And that is why the great Keith Olbermann was wont to affirm, &#8220;That woman &#8211; is an idiot!&#8221;</p>
<p>Those same sensible people who might give her plaudits for being canny enough to be a sports broadcaster and learn the flute and become a rifle marksman are rightfully alarmed at the darker tone that this movie adopts as it limps to its conclusion. Palin&#8217;s fundamentalist background means she believes the Earth is 6,000 years old and dinosaurs walked with cavemen (she must think Peter Jackson&#8217;s <a href="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/king-kong-2005">KING KONG</a> is a documentary); and though the first half of the movie bored us to sleep with wonk minutiae, towards its end, Palin&#8217;s religious beliefs filter into the movie&#8217;s narrative thread and wake us the fuck up. We start hearing how she is in a &#8220;spiritual&#8221; battle with her detractors (many of whom are featured in the movie&#8217;s opening montage: Bill Maher, Matt Damon, Howard Stern, John Cleese, blogs, websites, a tsunami of negative press junkets). And it is chilling to glean that Palin believes she was divinely chosen as the Lord&#8217;s evangel to shepherd His flock during these End Times&#8230; Huh? Did that &#8220;spiritual&#8221; battle start before or after she was asked what newspapers she reads?</p>

<div id="attachment_30814" style="width: 160px" class="wp-caption alignleft"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-30814" class="wp-image-30814 size-full" title="THE UNDEFEATED Andrew Breitbart" src="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Undefeated_breitbart.jpg" alt="Undefeated_breitbart" width="150" height="211" srcset="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Undefeated_breitbart.jpg 150w, https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Undefeated_breitbart-100x141.jpg 100w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /><p id="caption-attachment-30814" class="wp-caption-text">Andrew Breitbart: liar. <br />Nice legacy, jackass!</p></div>
<p>Of all the talking heads who offer their unbridled juice for Palin, when <a href="//www.poffysmoviemania.com/tag/andrew-breitbart">Andrew Breitbart</a> appears, it&#8217;s all over. It&#8217;s been unwatchable up to this point. Now it&#8217;s hurting my back. Thank Christ that willfully ignorant, primitive excuse for a human being is dead.</p>
<p>Matt Lewis in <em>The Daily Caller</em>, wrote that THE UNDEFEATED reminded him of <a href="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/rocky/">ROCKY</a>, in that no one thought Rocky would get that far. But Matt, you forget the other similarities: in the sense that she&#8217;s inarticulate, in the sense that she goes in pretty and comes out ugly; in the sense that she battles with Creed; in the sense that she has brain damage; in the sense that a black man schools her on how it&#8217;s done&#8230;</p>
<p>If you&#8217;d like to wash the taste of Todd&#8217;s spunk out of your mouth after watching this tripe, you might consider Nick Broomfield&#8217;s SARAH PALIN: YOU BETCHA! (2011), a decidedly unauthorized documentary, featuring interviews with Palin&#8217;s family, friends and acquaintances.</p>
<hr />
<p>THE UNDEFEATED is well-produced, and has all the right BEHIND THE MUSIC beats (early childhood, scratchy video, school photos, mentors, lovers, villains, &#8220;then tragedy struck,&#8221; successes and slomo) but it is, in one word, boring. And not for the reasons you think. If it were a cacophony of shrikes lauding Palin&#8217;s supposed political prowess, that would at least spur outrage in our breasts. But it is merely a combination infomercial/resume, outlining in painful detail Palin&#8217;s bill-passing political career, sub-clause by sub-clause. Now that would be fine if your crowd is all politicians and you&#8217;re running for a seat where they need to know your background, but let&#8217;s not forget that Stephen K. Bannon made this glorified demo reel as apologist retaliation for Palin opening her big mouth during the McCain campaign and vindicating the Peter Principle. Oh, yeah, and because he wants to fuck her.</p>

<h4>Too Big To Nail.</h4>
<blockquote><p>Corruption is our protection. Corruption keeps us safe and warm. Corruption is why you and I are prancing around in here instead of fighting over scraps of meat out in the streets. Corruption is why we win.<br />
&#8212; Bob Baer&#8217;s SYRIANA (2005).</p></blockquote>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-3845" style="margin: 5px; border: 1px solid black;" title="CAPITALISM: A LVE STORY Michael Moore" src="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/Capitalism_megaphone.jpg" alt="Capitalism_megaphone" width="273" height="209" />It&#8217;s not just about Too Big To Fail &#8211; it&#8217;s about betting on failing. And winning. And ensuring everyone else loses.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/tag/michael-moore">Michael Moore</a>&#8216;s CAPITALISM: A LOVE STORY &#8211; a screed on the vampiric system of wealth-creation for the upper class and simultaneous wealth-stultification for the lower &#8211; succeeds in being even scarier than his last two incisive exposés on the political underbelly of American society, <a href="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/fahrenheit-9-11">FAHRENHEIT 9/11 </a>(2004) and <a href="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/sicko">SICKO</a> (2007). It&#8217;s scarier because, unlike the problems addressed in the other two, Capitalism cannot be stopped.</p>
<p>Released as the United States was in financial meltdown, Moore addresses the reasons for that meltdown (many of them anti-Democratic and unrecognizable as upholding American ideals &#8211; yet claiming that they do, of course), pinpoints how key figures in government can be traced back to private enterprises which they still advocate for against the country&#8217;s better interests, exposes many of the scams corporations employ to create unethical wealth, and makes an ass of himself with his characteristic public stunts.</p>
<p>Thus CAPITALISM may also be the most futile of Moore&#8217;s documentaries. One point comes across loud and clear: we are so ensconced in the system that &#8211; like fish &#8211; we can do nothing about the water we swim in.</p>
<p>Americans have been conditioned to believe that not only is capitalism the &#8220;only&#8221; Circle of Life but also the &#8220;righteous&#8221; system that God himself approves of. The American public has been inculcated so deeply, when Moore shows us Public Announcement clips stating these exact sentiments, it seems as futile as exposing gravity. Like Rod Blagojevich&#8217;s hairstyle, it cannot be stopped or tampered with.</p>
<h5><em>the crime of selling crime<br />
</em></h5>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-3846" style="margin: 5px; border: 1px solid black;" title="CAPITALISM: A LOVE STORY BP oil spill" src="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/Capitalism_oil.jpg" alt="Capitalism_oil" width="199" height="331" srcset="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/Capitalism_oil.jpg 199w, https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/Capitalism_oil-180x300.jpg 180w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 199px) 100vw, 199px" />Movie opens with security cam footage of bank robbers. No commentary, no narration, no judgment. Many would see this footage as metaphor for what Moore is about to show us &#8211; banking institutions robbing the public wildly, doing the same thing as these robbers in a &#8220;legalized&#8221; manner. Some might say these robbers were the cause of crime. No, they are the RESULT of crime. High &#8220;white collar&#8221; crimes that create a disparity of wealth, driving the lower classes to acts of desperation caught on security cam.</p>
<p>Blue collar criminals cannot even CONCEIVE of the truly malevolent nature of white collar criminals &#8211; keep in mind that white collar crime is responsible for deregulation which causes mine disasters, gas explosions, oil spills, destruction of the environment, hundreds of thousands of lives lost, citizens injured, poisoned; toxic water, billions of dollars squandered in wars, illegal payoffs, bribes, aiding enemy factions therefore indirectly murdering Americans&#8230; White collar crime is the WORST kind of crime. And white collar criminals have the audacity to create the perception that blue collar thieves stealing $500 from banks while threatening thirty people are the greatest threat to your safety?! They&#8217;re selling you this bottom rung desperation as &#8220;crime.&#8221; And that&#8217;s the biggest crime.</p>
<p>The top 1% in America has more wealth than the bottom 95% combined. This is not because they have an uncompromising work ethic. Nor is it because they produce valuable tangible product integral to the survival of humans. It is because they game the wealth system of the country and don&#8217;t care who or what is destroyed in the generation of that vulgar wealth.</p>
<p>A step towards putting these crooks away would be for laypeople to stop using the term &#8220;white collar crime&#8221; as if it means Shit-Don&#8217;t-Stink.</p>
<h5><em>capitalizing on capitalism</em></h5>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-3847" style="margin: 5px; border: 1px solid black;" title="CAPITALISM: A LOVE STORY Peter Dougherty" src="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/Capitalism_priest.jpg" alt="Capitalism_priest" width="197" height="233" />Capitalism was sold to America in the &#8217;50s and &#8217;60s, and Moore rolls out the American Educational films to prove it &#8211; irritating Aryan white white white people telling us &#8220;Capitalism is Good!&#8221; Moore opines the corporate killer instinct only became prominent in the U.S. through the Reagan years. 1987&#8217;s <a href="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wall-street">WALL STREET</a> didn&#8217;t help when Gordon Gekko told us &#8220;Greed is good.&#8221;</p>
<p>The Educational Video Republican Nazi Aryans chime in: &#8220;We know capitalism is inherently right because it is wholesome and good and compatible with God&#8217;s laws.&#8221; (!)</p>
<p>Cognitive dissonance: it is jarring to hear priests and bishops say capitalism is wrong &#8211; when they are beneficiaries of it. Eat my body, drink my Kool Aid.</p>
<p>American capitalism is a beast that is geared to kill you. It is not even a conspiracy, which can usually be stopped by lopping off its head. Capitalism has no head. Like &#8216;terrorism,&#8217; it is a methodology of fear. Fear of not having enough. Feeding that fear, the corporations who run the politicians who run the people. It is no coincidence corps are called &#8216;entities&#8217;: craven, tentacular beasts, faceless, nameless, diffuse and untraceable, grasping, inculcating, eating us like prey. We are consumed, abused, discarded; contemptible offal.</p>

<p>We are antelopes. Corporations are lions. Antelopes and lions live side by side on the Serengeti yet there is no communication possible between them. Appealing to emotions and sympathies of corporations as if they have morals or ethics is like an antelope appealing to a lion not to eat his uncle with the gammy leg. The roles are concrete: one eats, one gets et. I&#8217;m not being sarcastic. I&#8217;m not being metaphorical. How can food be sarcastic or metaphorical?</p>
<p>Capitalism has the ability to convince people who are victimized by this very system to support the system.</p>
<p>Consider the infuriating, bald-faced lying advertisements we see today, promoting Bank of America and Scottrade and Allstate as your pals: &#8220;When a person does it, it&#8217;s called responsible. When an insurance company does it, it&#8217;s called Liberty Mutual.&#8221; And if I actually try to claim my insurance money, it&#8217;s called voice menu, red tape, abandonment, customer disservice, contractual breach&#8230;</p>
<p>Or sharebuilder.com fooling people into believing they own a part of the company they buy shares in: &#8220;I own my wireless company.&#8221; Sure you do, moron. &#8220;I own the world&#8217;s number one search engine.&#8221; Really? Even the owner of Google doesn&#8217;t own Google, twit. But Google &#8211; the Corporation &#8211; owns Android and YouTube and Urchin and Orion and a million other companies &#8211; which means it might even own YOU.</p>
<p>A BP ad: &#8220;I don&#8217;t think you can live the American lifestyle without energy.&#8221; What exactly is the &#8220;American lifestyle&#8221;? Living with your accrued savings always on the edge of being snatched from you by corporate misfeasance?</p>
<p>The corporations and banks are &#8220;too big to fail&#8221; because we want them to be. Deep in our selfish guts, a carrot dangles, promising that one day we too might avail ourselves of the hedonism that a capitalistic society might provide. We have come to believe the surfeit of media distracting us with hip hop cribs and Trump internships and millionaire bachelors. We know that if this system was excised from society, there would be ZERO chance of us sharing a jacuzzi with twenty topless blondes. With Capitalism, at least there&#8217;s a million-to-one chance. In DUMB AND DUMBER, when Jim Carrey is told by the hot blonde that the chance of him scoring her are one in a million, he ecstatically replies, &#8220;So you&#8217;re telling me there&#8217;s a CHANCE!&#8221;</p>
<p>Yes, that&#8217;s how dumb and dumber they know we are.</p>

<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-3849 alignleft" style="margin: 5px; border: 1px solid black;" title="CAPITALISM: A LOVE STORY Matt Taibbi" src="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/Capitalism_Taibbi.jpg" alt="Capitalism_Taibbi" width="150" height="150" srcset="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/Capitalism_Taibbi.jpg 150w, https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/Capitalism_Taibbi-100x100.jpg 100w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;">The irony of those financial institutions that have been branded as &#8220;Too Big To Fail&#8221; is that they made their fortunes betting on other people failing.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;">For those, like me, who cannot understand the processes behind the financial meltdown, I found great clarification in Matt Taibbi&#8217;s insightful Rolling Stone article (Mar 4, 2010), where he elucidates in plain English and clear analogies how corps like Goldman Sachs worked their diabolical swindle of America&#8217;s economy.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;">His article also serves as eye-opening reminder of what true crime looks like &#8211; it doesn&#8217;t wear a black hood and carry a gun, it doesn&#8217;t wear a thaub and strap explosives to its body screaming &#8220;Jihad!&#8221; It looks like Gordon Gekko.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;">The following is quoted/excerpted from Taibbi, with my studious cucumber comments interwoven:</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;">The financial crisis of 2008 was caused by a perverse series of legal incentives that made failed investments worth more than thriving ones. Our economy was like a town where everyone has juicy insurance policies on their neighbor&#8217;s cars and houses. In such a town, driving will be suspiciously bad and there will be lots of fires.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;">Goldman Sachs was selling billions in bundled mortgage-backed securities. <em>(I don&#8217;t know what that means either, but wait for the analogy.)</em> Companies like Goldman were selling bad investments to customers, then buying insurance on those investments failing. An investigator compares this to selling a car with faulty brakes and then buying an insurance policy on the buyer of those cars.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;">These bad investments and toxic assets are underwritten by firms like AIG. But when these assets crash and Goldman Sachs comes to collect its insurance from AIG, if AIG can&#8217;t pay, and Goldman demands to be paid anyway &#8211; that&#8217;s when a crash happens. This was happening on a scale to dwarf the Death Star.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;">Goldman Sachs applied for and received federal bank charters &#8211; meaning that though they were not really banks, they would receive all the benefits of being one, like borrowing money from the Federal Reserve, for which then-Fed Chief Ben Bernanke set the interest rates to zero percent. So they were borrowing money with NO interest <em>(something which none of us people who actually NEED money can do)</em> and then lending this money back to the government by buying treasury bills which paid interest at 3 or 4 percent. <em>(No wonder this movie is subtitled &#8220;A Love Story.&#8221; There can be no other reasoning behind Bernanke&#8217;s absolute unconditional pandering to the capitalists than pure unadulterated love.)</em></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>(It was not just one scam or two, it was a matrix of scams piled on duplicities piled on insults to injury. The many scam methods are analogized with scams used in well-known films like GOODFELLAS and THE STING, all with their distinctive names: The Swoop and Squat, The Rumanian Box, The Pig in the Poke, The Big Mitt, The Wire, etc. And like those movies &#8211; the scams worked.)</em></span></p>

<p>It gets horrifying when Moore alerts us to the Dead Peasant Clause (the title says it all, don&#8217;t it?); companies taking out life insurance on their employees, and making more money on their employees&#8217; deaths than paying their wages in life, while nothing goes to the family of the dead employee. (In <a href="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/tropic-thunder/">TROPIC THUNDER</a>, Tom Cruise&#8217;s scary agent character outlines how he can make more money on his client being dead than wasting capital rescuing him from guerillas.)</p>
<p>Brings a whole new dimension to the gag: &#8220;It&#8217;s all fun and games until someone dies!&#8221;</p>
<h5><em>the peasants are revolting!</em></h5>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-3848" style="margin: 5px; border: 1px solid black;" title="CAPITALISM: A LOVE STORY Supreme Court" src="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/Capitalism_supreme.jpg" alt="Capitalism_supreme" width="298" height="240" />Moore shows us a low angle of a black woman sitting on the floor of a crowded room, giving an interview. Text onscreen: Detroit Michigan, Nov 4, 2008. 11pm.</p>
<p>Her attention is drawn to a TV screen out of camera range. Everyone in the room breaks out cheering. Moore plays it supercool and doesn&#8217;t make any mention of what is happening &#8211; but we all KNOW what happened that fateful night&#8230;</p>
<p>YET &#8211; as poignant and inspirational as that moment was, we now realize it was just icing, a circus, more wool pulled over our eyes to shut us up. It was not real. Oh yes, a black man really did win a white house, however the same Old Guard holds sway in Washington, just with a new bumboy who is more savvy at politics than the last moron.</p>
<p>After Obama&#8217;s election, Moore comments, &#8220;It was a farewell to the old America,&#8221; but he is wrong. We now know that it was merely to sell different portrait plates, not to instigate new foreign policy or ethical financial behavior or to actually help the American people. In January 2010, when the Supreme Court ruled that corporations are allowed to spend unlimited money in political campaigns, we realize Obama&#8217;s election was not a &#8220;farewell to the Old America,&#8221; but a stepping stone to an even newer, shinier, whiter, Orwellian America.</p>
<p>Moore implies Obama leads an administration willing to take back America. He mentions that Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, Morgan Stanley, et al, have contributed much money to the Obama administration. He fails to mention they succeeded in buying him off&#8230;</p>
<h5><em>the fix is in<br />
</em></h5>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-3851" style="margin: 5px; border: 1px solid black;" title="CAPITALISM: A LOVE STORY Elizabeth Warren" src="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/Capitalism_Warren.jpg" alt="Capitalism_Warren" width="188" height="238" />Radio host Randy Rhodes has asked, &#8220;Why can&#8217;t we fix it by holding these corporate people accountable?&#8221; Because corporations have put their own departments in charge of pointing out accountability. Works for them.</p>
<p>One thing about this movie I did not find funny in the least was Elizabeth Warren (TARP Congressional Oversight Panel Chair), the top lady assigned to find out exactly where the bailout funds were disbursed. When asked by Moore, &#8220;Where is our money?&#8221; she gives a dumbfounded look and shrugs, &#8220;I don&#8217;t know.&#8221; It might have been a good gag illustrating how convoluted the system has become &#8211; BUT &#8211; Warren repeated that exact &#8220;bit&#8221; in early 2010 on THE DAILY SHOW with Jon Stewart. Which means she is treating her job as if it&#8217;s a comedy routine. But $780,000,000,000 is no laughing matter.</p>
<p>Warren also appeared on THE RACHEL MADDOW SHOW in April 2010 with her impressive title and What-Me-Worry? attitude, and it occurs to me that she too is just another emplacement by the corporations to spread disinformation, with her description of financial institutions as if they&#8217;re Mother Theresa helping people by lending money; while she&#8217;s meant to be pushing back against the stonewalling of corporations, she is more often acting as apologist for them and stonewalling US, all the while confessing how badly she does her job.</p>
<p>Ask not what your corporation can do for you, Elizabeth&#8230;</p>
<h5><em>and now for something completely useless&#8230;</em></h5>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-3850" style="margin: 5px; border: 1px solid black;" title="CAPITALISM: A LOVE STORY Michael Moore" src="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/Capitalism_truck.jpg" alt="Capitalism_truck" width="235" height="228" />Some believe there is an optimistic message toward the end of CAPITALISM. I musta missed it. Maybe it was that factory that held out for wages instead of firings &#8211; and won. An uplifting tale but small potatoes. Moore always gives us the biggest picture possible with his docs, and for that, we thank him. Then he dives into minutiae that highlights the human interaction with those bigger pictures, and for that, we commend him.</p>
<p>Then he does something stupid.</p>
<p>Ever the provocateur, Moore drives an armored van up to the doors of banks, holds out money bags and demands taxpayers&#8217; money back from the bailout. It&#8217;s a laugh line and it gets its message across: that the physical dollars do not exist to actually be handed back. They&#8217;ve been transmogrified into &#8220;derivatives&#8221; and &#8220;hedge funds&#8221; and &#8220;securities&#8221; and &#8220;bonds&#8221; &#8211; intangible things. Any wonder then, that they disappear so easily?</p>
<p>Security guards at the doors of these buildings laugh at him as he rolls out yellow &#8220;Crime Scene Do Not Cross&#8221; tape and tries to &#8220;citizen&#8217;s arrest&#8221; bankers as they enter the building; they advise him to get off the property as he bullhorns the skyscrapers; they escort him out of lobbies while secretly joyous their fifteen minutes has arrived on camera.</p>
<p>And it&#8217;s a complete waste of time. Doesn&#8217;t do anything for anyone. Solves nothing. Alleviates nothing. Proves only one salient point: that if we wanted to actually make a citizen&#8217;s arrest of the CEOs of these banks and insurance companies, we can&#8217;t.</p>
<blockquote><p>It&#8217;s not illegal &#8211; but it&#8217;s not ethical either.<br />
&#8212; ProPublica.org spokesman re. Magnetar scandal.</p></blockquote>
<p>No single person can understand the full story, the expansive insidious insanity &#8211; we&#8217;ve got better things to do. The least we can do is immerse ourselves in media that entertains while it educates. Of COURSE it&#8217;s subjective but the facts are incontrovertible. It is not a leftist rant &#8211; Moore had the opportunity to vilify the Bush family when he mentioned the Savings and Loan scandal (one of the biggest scams in history for which the Bush Klan was entirely responsible), yet he never drops that satanic name &#8211; yet Republicans and others who wish to eradicate the middle class and return to the boot-heel simplicity of peons and monarchs will undoubtedly moan unjustifiably about CAPITALISM&#8217;s left-wing propagandism.</p>
<p>Emptiest vessels always do make the most sound.</p>
<p>Yet after all the public outcry against corporatism, after the financial meltdown, after the rib-breaking bailout, after Moore&#8217;s indicting movie, after losing your job, your house, your family, after the country has become the laughingstock of the world for its obeisance to its base desires, what exactly is the state of the union?</p>
<p>From Taibbi&#8217;s article: &#8220;In fact, they&#8217;re back to conniving and playing speculative long shots in force, only this time with the full financial support of the U.S. government. In the process, they are rapidly recreating the conditions for another crash with the same actors once again playing the same crazy games of financial chicken with the same toxic assets as before.&#8221;</p>
<p>Ain&#8217;t love grand?</p>

Guess what? I&#8217;m too big to fail. Me: Poffy the Cucumber. Why? Because I say so. Like the grandest Jedi Mind Trick, that is exactly what the banks told you about themselves &#8211; the only evidence being Because We Say So &#8211; and you bought it.</p>
<p>No matter that financial experts on news programs were proclaiming emphatically there&#8217;s no such thing as Too Big To Fail. The braindead public and the credulous media ate the corporate lie like candy. Yet if they failed it would only mean the failure of CEOs and CFOs and lobbyists and branch presidents, not YOU. And after a slight hiccup, the economy would get back to normal.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s not forget these supposedly Too-Big-To-Fail institutions were BAILED OUT by the government, or more to the point, by the PEOPLE of America, whose taxpayer dollars were the bail money. Which means they would have failed had not the American government paid them like a bitch (despite the wishes of the majority of Americans &#8211; to paraphrase a mongoloid, &#8220;How&#8217;s that Every Vote Counts thingy workin&#8217; for ya?&#8221;). Too Big To Fail was not an actual condition, but a scare tactic.</p>
<p>And speaking of scare tactics and mongoloids: when all those Tea Party ignoramuses led by Hannity, Rush, Boehner, Beck and mongo Palin squeal &#8220;socialism&#8221; over Obama mentioning &#8220;spreading the wealth,&#8221; do none of them realize that the Bush admin did exactly that by taking from the poor and giving to the rich with the bailout?</p>
<p>P.S. Send 780 billion dollars to me. Because I say so.</p>

<blockquote><p>JOHN MCCAIN&#8217;S STORY SO FAR: First the Republican nominee for president assured us that the &#8220;fundamentals of the economy were strong.&#8221; On seeing coffee flying out of everyone&#8217;s noses at that assertion, he changed his mind. Then the suggestion was to fire the Chairman of the SEC. Informed that a president isn&#8217;t allowed to fire a Chairman of the SEC, the candidate changed his mind again. The next idea: a Blue Ribbon Commission to study the problem. Thud. Next idea? Come out against the bailout for AIG. Then when AIG was bailed out &#8211; change! Now it&#8217;s time to be in favor of the AIG bailout! Then there was the fake suspension of the campaign to pass the Wall Street bailout. Then the Republican party ran ads against the Wall Street bailout&#8230;<br />
&#8212; Rachel Maddow, THE RACHEL MADDOW SHOW, 14 Oct 2008.</p></blockquote>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-10557" style="margin: 3px;" title="I" src="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/WRITINGS_LetterCapitals_I.jpg" alt="WRITINGS_LetterCapitals_I" width="50" height="70" />&#8216;ve been waiting for John McCain to drop the N-bomb.</p>
<p>He&#8217;s that type of guy. Look at him on that stump, turning purple as a bell-end in his witless denunciation of Barack Obama. Yet no matter how impassioned his mindless, mendacious rhetoric, he just won&#8217;t say That Word &#8211; even though every fiber of his Old-Man-Yells-At-Cloud demeanor bespeaks it.</p>
<p>Then I realized he didn&#8217;t have to say That Word. Because the spineless, lowlife Republicans have found the ultimate euphemism, a displacement word as diabolical as their black hearts and snake agendas.</p>
<p>A euphemism that brings with it all the negative baggage of generations, oppression, dehumanization, unconditional hate; a New N-Word signifying pariah, alien, backward, unholy &#8211; exactly what That Word used to signify when it was used in civil society with impunity.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-19744" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="TERRORIST IS THE NEW NIGGER John McCain Barack Obama" src="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/John-McCain_Barack-Obama.jpg" alt="Senate Holds Hearing On Federal Funding Accountability" width="250" height="182" />The new N-word: Terrorist.</p>
<p>It started in June 2008 with FOX News bimbo <em>du jour, </em> E.D. Hill, asking of Michelle and Barack&#8217;s fist bump, “A pound? <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xScZN2-Z_Sg&amp;feature=related" target="_blank">A terrorist fist jab</a>?” and right-wingnut Conservative website Human Events calling it a &#8220;Hezbollah-style fist jabbing.&#8221; These summations were so outlandish they were caricatured by other news programs. But the Republicans got what they wanted &#8211; &#8220;Terrorist&#8221; was back in popular circulation. And being applied to the Democrat Obama. In the past few weeks, with McCain town hall conventions coming to resemble Klan rallies, now we see where those unpatriotic bigots were going with that seeding of hatred.</p>
<p>With every armpit-sweat-drenched ululation of the New N-Word at Republican rallies, with every intimation and allusion and inference from the flannel-flecked crowd; with every hate-seared lie and donkey breath that issues from the lizard lips of John McCain and the cum-glazed pig-lipstick of Sarah Palin &#8211; they&#8217;re saying Nigger&#8230; in the most patriotic way possible.</p>
<p>You see, a white supremacist racist bigot can&#8217;t say Nigger in civil society anymore without their white hood on &#8211; it would lose them an election&#8230; but a person of any ethnicity can say Terrorist anywhere. And be applauded as a Caring, Free, Courageous American.</p>
<p>For years I thought only <a href="https://www.thedunmore.com/Writings_Freebird.html" target="_blank">Lynyrd Skynyrd</a> could conjure Instant Mongoloid Symposiums, but if you want to see people as red of neck or as mong of loid as Skynyrd dingbats, visit a 2008 Republican convention.</p>
<hr />
<blockquote><p>&#8220;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IG0ywlWlyUM" target="_blank">I&#8217;m mad! I&#8217;m REALLY mad</a>!&#8230;. When you have Obama, Pelosi and the rest of the hooligans up there gonna run this country, we gotta have our head examined! It&#8217;s time that YOU TWO [McCain and Palin] are representing us and we are MAD! So go get &#8217;em!&#8221;<br />
&#8212; painfully Caucasian redneck swine at McCain rally.</p></blockquote>
<p>Crowds at McCain-Palin rallies: &#8220;Terrorist!&#8221; &#8220;Kill him!&#8221; &#8220;Bomb Obama!&#8221; &#8220;Treason!&#8221; &#8220;Off with his head!&#8221; Picket signs: &#8220;Obama bin Lyin&#8217;,&#8221; &#8220;Obama = Osama.&#8221;</p>
<p>Sheriff Mike Scott, of Lee County, Florida, in full uniform, as introductory speaker for Palin, spikes the crowd&#8217;s mongo nerve by declaring, &#8220;On November 4th, let&#8217;s leave Barack Hussein Obama wondering what happened.&#8221; To the world at large, Barack&#8217;s full legal name is just that &#8211; his full name; to the goofball acid-heads and Klansfolk at McCain-Palin rallies it is Hussein = Saddam = Terrorist = The New N-Word. But this neckless hate-monger plays the &#8220;What Controversy?&#8221; card when his Inbox chocks with caustic rejoinders: &#8220;It absolutely shocks me. And I&#8217;m appalled by some of the e-mails. They are hateful and spiteful.&#8221; And where exactly is that hate and spite generated, if not at the stump you just laid an egg on?</p>
<p>&#8220;Reverend&#8221; Arnie Conrad, introductory speaker at a McCain rally, beseeches God to &#8220;step in&#8221; and make McCain win, &#8220;because there are people praying to <em>other </em>gods for other results.&#8221; Arnie&#8217;s unspoken subtext is that the MUSLIM GOD supports Obama. (Muslim = Terrorist = The New N-Word.) The mindless corollary to this request is: should Obama win, I guess God becomes Allah&#8217;s nigger.</p>
<p>The Virginia Republican party chairman, Jeff Frederick, <a href="https://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalpunch/2008/10/va-gop-chief-co.html" target="_blank">compares Obama to Osama bin Laden</a>! When asked about it, McCain does nothing to repudiate the claim.</p>
<p>James T. Harris (African-American talk show host on <em>News Radio</em> 620 WTMJ Milwaukee) addresses McCain by &#8220;begging him&#8221; to &#8220;take it to [Obama]&#8221; by re-raising the dead-as-dodos <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeremiah_Wright" target="_blank">Jeremiah Wright</a>, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Ayers" target="_blank">Bill Ayers</a> and ACORN. And in a comment to CNN, even Harris acknowledges what the predominantly white crowd is thinking when they see him (Harris) at Republican rallies, &#8220;Just what is that N-Word doing here amongst us white people?&#8221; His reasons for supporting McCain are irrelevant (he&#8217;s a self-admitted &#8220;real Conservative&#8221; and trying to lean McCain towards his position &#8211; fat chance!); the point here is that even though he shares <em>the same ideology</em> with the crowd, he admits they STILL CONSIDER HIM AN N-WORD!</p>
<p>Ana Marie Cox of <em>Time Magazine</em> notes, &#8220;The wingnuts are the only people LEFT to come to these rallies.&#8221;</p>
<p>Not just at the rallies, the balls to publicly call Obama Nigger Without Calling Him Nigger has spread to the rest of the media. To illustrate the madness of the New Improved Unsheeted Klan, Tom Leykis 97.1 KLSX Los Angeles, reads a hate-letter on-air: &#8220;&#8230;send that black bastard back to Hawaii to pick pineapples with his feet.&#8221; You gotta admit, that one&#8217;s kinda funny, but the goon agitator mentions Hawaii in the context of it being another country. (If he could see Russia from his house, he&#8217;d call it America.)</p>
<p>Another caveman turns up at a McCain-Palin rally with a Curious George monkey, putting an Obama headband on it to signify&#8230; I guess, uh, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bky2SGrmC8g" target="_blank">Curious George supports Obama</a>? (I urge you to click this link to watch the video: a priceless, minute-long depiction of the face of the McCain-Palin Campaign: racist bravado when surrounded by their own kind, then yellow cowardice when confronted.)</p>
<p>And if calling Obama a Nigger via euphemism is not enough, how about extending that euphemism to Sand-Nigger? Rensselaer County, New York <a href="https://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalradar/2008/10/barack-osama-pr.html" target="_blank">printed 4000 ballots</a> with Barack&#8217;s name &#8220;misprinted&#8221; &#8211; ahem &#8211; as Barack <em>Osama</em>. 300 absentee ballots were sent out before someone reported the &#8211; ahem &#8211; &#8220;typo.&#8221; Election officials said it was &#8220;&#8230;an honest mistake innocently done.&#8221; Let&#8217;s pretend we believe this transparent lie: if it WAS an &#8220;honest mistake,&#8221; someone had to physically manipulate the type onto the original template for the ballot (digitally, mechanically, whatever &#8211; there was a PERSON at the helm); the only way this mistake could be made &#8211; even unconsciously &#8211; is because the Terrorist inculcation has become so vivid and ubiquitous that it simply slipped their bleating goat mind.</p>
<p>More than just a negative smear campaign, the Republicans have given license to all those fuming nigger-haters, all trying to be so pc (&#8220;pc&#8221; = Painfully Caucasian), who in reality are fatally close to busting a blood vessel suppressing that Old N-Word; given them license by bequeathing The New N-Word for them to orgasmically spout like a fire-hose out of control.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Tell McCain to End the Politics of Hate </strong></p>
<div class="video-container"><iframe loading="lazy" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/U5mdIPNB8t8" width="420" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></div>
<p>Pertaining to Bill Ayers, a 1960s anti-war radical (whom Obama met when Ayers was a respected community member in 2002), McCain himself repeats on every TV interview: &#8220;I don&#8217;t care about two washed-up old terrorists that are unrepentant about trying to destroy America. But I do care, and Americans should care, about [Obama&#8217;s] relationship with him&#8230;&#8221; McCain thinks that in playing &#8220;good cop&#8221; to his redneck crowd&#8217;s &#8220;bad cop&#8221; we won&#8217;t notice he&#8217;s fanning the flames with The New N-Word. Yet this gutless cur refuses to bring up these &#8220;terrorist issues&#8221; when he is face-to-face with Obama at two debates. If the terrorist claim is true, shouldn&#8217;t McCain be calling 9-1-1 or something? Instead, he opts to shake the hand of a man he himself accuses of being a &#8220;terrorist sympathizer&#8221; &#8211; what kind of message does that send about the two-faced McCain?</p>
<p>The RIGHT message.</p>
<p>The issues have been marginalized, the lie about &#8220;suspending the campaign until the economy is fixed&#8221; has been pasted over with more lies; the lie about &#8220;running a clean campaign&#8221; swept under the rug (like McCain&#8217;s mob ties to <a href="https://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=990CE7D61638F93BA25752C0A963958260&amp;sec=&amp;spon=&amp;pagewanted=all" target="_blank">Joe Bananas</a>, his numerous affairs &#8211; yeh, &#8220;family values&#8221; &#8211; and the Keating Five scandal); the Republican Base alienated and insulted on so many levels (with the directionless meandering of McCain and his insensate tapping of the most unqualified person in America as his running mate); every shred of decency trampled in the shark frenzy to smear an honest man and attain the presidency at any cost.</p>
<p>And we thought George W. Bush was a thug, moron and liar of astronomical proportions &#8211; a swine who caused the deaths of over 4,100 of his own countryfolk on the basis of a proven lie. Look at McCain-Palin go!</p>

<blockquote><p>&#8220;I&#8217;m an American &#8211; and I choose to fight!&#8221;<br />
&#8212; John McCain, Oct 13, 2008.</p></blockquote>
<p>We know. That&#8217;s what you do. That&#8217;s all you are: a grunt. You are no &#8220;hero.&#8221; You&#8217;re an ex-Prisoner of War. Explain to us exactly how that qualifies you to be president of the United States? After five years in the Hanoi Hilton, not the least bit Post-Traumatic-y, John? Cindy McCain in a recent interview said McCain never suffered Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder because he was &#8220;well-trained&#8221; &#8211; implying, of course, that if you DO have PTSD, you somehow lack training, insulting every single soldier <em>with </em>PTSD.</p>
<p>Okay, if we run with the lie about &#8220;training,&#8221; then we have to acknowledge that military training includes methods on how to avoid capture. Guess you missed those classes, John. Or maybe FAILED them. For all his gab about military service and POW &#8220;heroism,&#8221; John McCain never mentions he was at the BOTTOM of his military class: graduating in 1958 from the Naval Academy, 894th out of 899.</p>
<p>Well-trained?!</p>
<p>Considering McCain&#8217;s mental prowess, Obama&#8217;s mantra describing a McCain presidency as &#8220;Four more years of George W. Bush&#8221; is not far wrong.</p>
<p>Shouldn&#8217;t this mean that the 893 who graduated ABOVE McCain and who DIDN&#8217;T get captured and who are still alive without PTSD (because, of course, they were EVEN BETTER TRAINED than McCain) would make EVEN BETTER presidents?</p>
<hr />
<blockquote><p>&#8220;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjfB1tdCO9I" target="_blank">I can&#8217;t trust Obama.</a> I&#8217;ve read about him &#8211; he&#8217;s an Arab&#8211;&#8221;<br />
&#8212; painfully Caucasian ignoramus lady at McCain rally.</p></blockquote>
<p>After all the nebulous accusations of terrorism and &#8220;associations&#8221; failed to take, McCain and Palin were forced to revert back to their fake promises, amorphous non-plans for the economy and hollow canards about McCain&#8217;s hunt for bin Laden&#8211;hang on! What did he say? <a href="https://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/07/25/john-mccain-i-know-how-to_n_115050.html" target="_blank">&#8220;I know how to do it!</a> I know how to capture bin Laden.&#8221; You know how to do it, John McCain?</p>
<p>SO DO IT!</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-19748" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="TERRORIST IS THE NEW NIGGER John McCain George W Bush" src="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/George-Bush_John-McCain.jpg" alt="George-Bush_John-McCain" width="200" height="203" />Your Republican Party is in power right now (albeit laughably) &#8211; pick up the phone to W, implement your plan and catch Osama&#8230; or are you BLACKMAILING the American people into voting for you first, <em>then</em> you&#8217;ll reveal your Grand Plan? Which &#8211; I&#8217;ll wager my left nut &#8211; is no plan at all.</p>
<p>I&#8217;d call that political terrorism&#8230;.</p>
<p>But we can&#8217;t really call McCain a terrorist &#8211; like his mentor, idol and ballsac-fondler, George W. Bush, he&#8217;s just a dangerous fool. His problems are now compounding and conundruming: in wallowing so deep in shit, McCain now finds he must DEFEND the man he is smearing at the very rallies where he is smearing this man. When that lady calls Obama an Arab, McCain counters with, &#8220;No ma&#8217;am, he&#8217;s a decent family man, citizen, that I just happen to have disagreements with.&#8221; When an illiterate munghole voices his concern about &#8220;someone who cohorts with domestic terrorists&#8221; [the word is &#8220;consorts,&#8221; maroon-neck!], McCain addresses the escalating fear-mongering: &#8220;&#8230;he is a decent person and a person that you do not have to be scared as president of the United States&#8221; &#8211; and was BOOED for this rare showing of actual integrity!</p>
<p>The maroons WANT to believe Obama is dangerous. They NEED to think of him as Muslim. They HAVE to call him Terrorist. <em>B</em><em>ecause they can&#8217;t say the N-Word! </em></p>
<p>But is McCain&#8217;s recant really &#8220;integrity&#8221;? No. McCain tempers the hate-speech like the gutless, unprincipled swine we&#8217;ve come to realize he is. He has never yet issued a statement/warning that hate-speech and slander <em>will not be tolerated </em>at his rallies. Then <em>he&#8217;d</em> have to stop the hate-speech and slander himself. And he doesn&#8217;t really want to stop his unpatriotic, ignorant fans from THINKING what they&#8217;re thinking. THAT would be guts. THAT would be honor. McCain lacks both.</p>
<p>Because HE is thinking exactly what THEY are thinking. Remember, he&#8217;s not thinking &#8220;Terrorist.&#8221; He&#8217;s thinking &#8220;Nigger.&#8221; Like the rest of the Klan. He&#8217;s just SAYING Terrorist&#8230;</p>
<p>They&#8217;re all over Obama&#8217;s &#8220;associations&#8221; like red on neck &#8211; but does anyone without a missing chromosome really want to &#8220;associate&#8221; with the people <em>McCain </em>is associating with? These trailer-park morons and kitchen politicos, who are so ignorant and racist they think that &#8220;Muslim&#8221; and &#8220;Arab&#8221; <em>per se</em> are actual insults.</p>
<p>As Ana Marie Cox tells us, these are the only people left whom McCain is appealing to. Because his &#8220;base&#8221; has long since deserted this weak, washed-up fraud.</p>
<p>The last vestiges of W&#8217;s 25% would rather throw <em>themselves </em>under the bus than ride it one more futile minute&#8230; From respected Republican op-ed monolith, George F. Will (&#8220;can a dismaying temperament be fixed?&#8221;), to neo-con Nazi, William Kristol (&#8220;<a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/13/opinion/13kristol.html" target="_blank">junk the whole thing and start over</a>&#8220;), to runway mannequin, Mitt Romney (&#8220;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UY5Plqs5d98" target="_blank">Huge mistake</a>&#8220;), Dracula ex-governor of Wisconsin, Tommy Thompson (&#8220;<a href="https://badgerherald.com/news/2008/10/14/thompson_slams_mccai.php" target="_blank">not happy</a>&#8220;) to the reptilian butterball who Stole Christmas in Whoville, Newt Gingrich (&#8220;show he&#8217;s different than Bush&#8221;).</p>
<p>Flailing in desperation, some Republicans don&#8217;t even want to be called Republican any more! <a href="https://blog.seattletimes.nwsource.com/politicsnorthwest/2008/09/23/democrats_sue_over_rossis_gop.html" target="_blank">Dino Rossi</a>, a Seattle senator and crybaby, wants to be called the &#8220;GOP Party&#8221; or he&#8217;ll hold his breath. Okay, so he won&#8217;t sprain a brain cell, let&#8217;s call him the Grand Old Party Party. Moron.</p>
<p>McCain-Palin is not just a train wreck &#8211; this is the space shuttle disintegrating without an ablative shield, hitting the Atlantic in shards, with intestines and skull fragments splattering the harp seal nesting grounds.</p>
<p>As a final testament to the &#8220;character&#8221; and &#8220;judgment&#8221; of the McCain campaign (things they keep telling us Obama lacks): from the beginning, they were stealing rock songs <em>without permission</em> from artists, to use at their rallies. <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/pixxiestails/2886050510/" target="_blank">Heart</a> and <a href="https://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/09/05/heart-van-halen-orleans-j_n_124264.html" target="_blank">Foo Fighters</a> have issued public Cease and Desist statements; Van Halen and Jackson Browne have also butted heads with the criminal McCain campaign. If we&#8217;re bombarded by annoying commercials telling us not to steal music online, shouldn&#8217;t the prospective <em>leader of the country</em> set the example?</p>
<p>Maybe they could steal FREEBIRD next. Lynyrd Skynyrd would love performing at their next convention&#8230;</p>

<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-19749" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="TERRORIST IS THE NEW NIGGER Sarah Palin" src="https://www.poffysmoviemania.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/Sarah-Palin_gak.jpg" alt="Sarah-Palin_gak" width="150" height="233" />Before any mention of this shrike&#8217;s non-qualifications or unethical Trooper-gate scandal, or rehearsed speeches guised as debate answers, the SEX issue needs to be addressed because I am sick to death of hearing Saran Palin is hot.</p>
<p>It is ironic Palin keeps referring to Joe Six-Pack when she&#8217;s never had one. A six-pack, that is. (I&#8217;m sure she&#8217;s had <em>many</em> Joes &#8211; in the biz, we usually call them &#8220;Johns,&#8221; honey.) Think about that abdominal region hidden like a raped nun from the media&#8217;s prying eyes: she&#8217;s forty-three years old, men. She had her first child in 1989 (at 25); since then, popping them out like the old woman in MEANING OF LIFE, singing <em>Every Sperm is Sacred. </em>One in 1990, 1995, 2001, 2008 &#8211; can you imagine, men, the sorry state of that seed-swollen belly?; like 30 miles of Death Valley fire trails under that chastity-belt blouse.</p>
<p>This stripper librarian has not even exposed her CLEAVAGE yet &#8211; because when she unhooks that padded push-up bra, her nipples point to China. Any man who has had any natural woman over 30 <em>knows </em>this! Like the Bush administration, denial seems to be a major trait of Republicans and anyone associated with them.</p>
<p>So quit coveting! What a waste of masturbation fluids.</p>
<p>As further incentive: with FIVE kids, think of how many times that half-hard First Dude mannequin has shot his yellowed, beer-driven sperm into that belching, queefing Jabba the Hutt orifice.</p>
<p>Wipe up your vomit and finish your poo sandwich&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>(I&#8217;m Thinkin&#8217; &#8216;Bout Nailin&#8217;) Sarah Palin</strong></p>

<p>As Election Day draws near, Palin&#8217;s puppetmasters have been sending her out with hair down and legs bared; that &#8220;Just got out of bed after a furious fellate&#8221; look.</p>
<p>Do the Republican strategists who forced her on McCain think you are THAT dumb? How many votes can a shaved pair of legs in high heels bring? I dunno &#8211; how did man-bear-pig Janet Reno do?</p>
<p>This condescending harridan with her memorized lies can accuse falsely, make fake claims, employ sexism and rabid foam-mouthed slander &#8211; but no one is allowed to talk TO her or ABOUT her &#8211; because that would be sexism. It is at HER rallies that the most intense threats and verbal denunciations are heard. She &#8211; like McCain &#8211; does nothing to quell the hate, only intensifying the hate-speech.</p>
<p>Talk about calling kettles black: this morally bankrupt woman and her hand-puppet husband were members of the Alaskan Independence Party, a league of maroon-necks trying to secede from the United States; consorting with founder and Lower-48-Hater, Joe Vogler: &#8220;The fires of hell are frozen glaciers compared to my hatred for the American government and I won&#8217;t be buried under their damn flag.&#8221; Todd Palin was registered until 2002; Sarah gave an opening address in 2008. That&#8217;s the year she was running for VP. That&#8217;s NOW. Vogler maintained: &#8220;I&#8217;m an Alaskan, not an American. I&#8217;ve got no use for their damned institutions.&#8221;</p>
<p>And Palin has the ballsac to stand under a &#8220;Country First&#8221; banner and question OBAMA&#8217;S patriotism? As Keith Olbermann commented: &#8220;<em>Which</em> Country First?&#8221;</p>
<hr />
<blockquote><p><a href="https://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/7662820.stm" target="_blank">FINDING NUMBER ONE</a>: &#8220;&#8230;I find that Governor Sarah Palin abused her power by violating Alaska Statute 39.52.110(a) of the Alaska Executive Branch Ethics Act.&#8221;<br />
&#8212; Branchflower Report to the Legislative Council, Oct 10, 2008</p></blockquote>
<p>After hearing this Trooper-gate verdict on the campaign trail, SHE says, &#8220;&#8230;thankfully the truth was revealed there in that report that showed there was not unlawful or unethical activity on my part.&#8221; Is she lying, or an illiterate who can&#8217;t understand the bludgeoning literalness of this English? Either way, which option qualifies her to be VP or &#8211; heaven forfend! &#8211; president of these 49-United-States-and-Alaska?</p>
<p>The Anchorage Daily News comments, with its jaw swinging open in incredulity: &#8220;Sarah Palin’s reaction to the Legislature’s Troopergate report is an embarrassment to Alaskans and the nation&#8230; Her response is either astoundingly ignorant or downright Orwellian.&#8221;</p>
<p>Orwellian &#8211; from George Orwell&#8217;s <em>1984</em>, where <em>Newspeak </em>was promulgated by the <em>thoughtpolice</em>; where the Ministry for Truth was the purveyor of lies. Black is white. Up is down. Freedom is slavery. War is peace.</p>
<p>Terrorist is Nigger.</p>
<p>These people will never drop the N-Bomb. Too duplicitous, too mendacious, too diabolical; they are too slimy and pernicious; too evil and amoral; too noxious and toxic, for me to ever hope they&#8217;ll end their campaign in such a blaze of non-painfully-Caucasian glory.</p>
<p>The New N-Word is way too popular with the Ku Bush Klan. They&#8217;re unsheeting their vermilion necks and dropping it all over the farm&#8230;</p>
<p>What the puling bigots in McCain-Palin audiences are too obtuse to realize, is that if this dishonorable, lying, erratic, racist elitist, John McCain, wins the Oval Egg in 2008 &#8211; we&#8217;re ALL gonna be his niggers&#8230;</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>On The Republican Campaign Trail 2008</strong><br />
Going so far beyond flip-flopping, it makes Mitt Romney look like a statue, John McCain, in his presidential race against Democratic nominee, Barack Obama, desperately tries to turn the focus away from an economy slimier and harder to grasp than his own lost soul. While every day, his polls, campaign and integrity slip further from his reach, he turns to Distraction &#8211; with smears so black, no one in the mainstream media can even mention they&#8217;re about BEING black&#8230;</p>

<p><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;">&#8220;A &#8216;tell&#8217; is any habit, behavior, or physical reaction, that gives other players more information about your hand.&#8221;<br />
&#8211;PlayWinningPoker.com</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;">Has no one picked McCain&#8217;s &#8220;tell&#8221; after all this time in politics? The tic in his left eye. This man is psychologically unbalanced.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;">Watch carefully: every time McCain is uncomfortable with the lie he is espousing, his eye tics. When his lies are vetted and oldies, he is at peace with them. When he is put in combat positions against his will, the eye once again starts its tell-tale twitching.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;">Watch the first few minutes of the Second Debate, when McCain is forced to shake Obama&#8217;s hand &#8211; his eye can&#8217;t stop the tell. Here is a man too gutless to look his opponent in the eye (Big Hero!); who must relegate him to &#8220;enemy&#8221; status in order to &#8220;battle&#8221; him, because his military inculcation taught him to treat enemies as less than human; McCain cannot divorce himself from that inculcation; he cannot face the truth of his mindless adherence to military protocol.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;">And his eye cannot tell a lie.</span></p>
