BloggeRhythms 7/10/2012

Clicking a headline on Drudge this morning “Brad Pitt's mom in fear after slamming Obama” sent me to an article by Jack Minor of WND on-line.

The author quotes Jane Pitt as writing that Barack Obama is “a liberal who supports the killing of unborn babies and same-sex marriage” in a letter to the editor of Missouri’s Springfield News-Leader.

I mention this not so much about the hostility in much of the reaction from readers, because there’s always anger, vitriol and dispute between those having differing opinions and beliefs. In fact, as an article, the material's probably not even worth reading at all.

But what caught my eye, and caused me to mention the situation today is the inclusion of reader’s comments at the article’s end.

As I read the threats, slurs and outright stupid babbling of the dissenters I realized that these slugs are dumber than stones. Nowhere did I see any mature, rational, or even dimly thought out responses. Instead I read:  “Brad Pitt’s mom, die,” “F— you, brad pitt’s mom, the gay community made your kid a star, you whacko,” and “Brad Pitt’s mom is a dumb c—.”

So, I guess, it’s articles like these that reflect some of the reasons that our nation’s in the morass that exists. And especially why so many folks are having trouble finding employment. Because if the childish way these examples have expressed themselves actually indicates their intellect, they’re fortunate if they can tie their own shoes.

Nonetheless, I doubt that these imbeciles will have much impact in the coming election, because its highly unlikely they’ll remember the date or be able to find the voting booths.

That’s it for today folks.

Adios
