Why Republicans Love Edward Snowden
Read Time:2 Minute, 51 Second
It never ceases to amaze me how easy it is to fool virtually everyone. Our sheeple on the right, you know, unionized workers that enjoy the benefits of collective bargaining but hate unions.
Mothers who think their kids are safer under a George Bush II presidency. Gun lovers and bigots who think President Obama will show up on their doorsteps to take their guns and have interracial sex with their daughters. The list goes on. But it’s easy getting them to vote against their real interests since pandering to deluded views is always good politics.
The left can try all it wants with its propaganda machine churning out its views, even though they are correct most of the time. Fact is climate change is real. The Koch Brothers control obscene wealth and wield huge amounts of power. The truth and responsible journalism in no way matter to Rupert Murdoch, Fox News, Rush Limbaugh, Laura Ingraham and the other right wing talking heads. Ronald Reagan achieved the highest office in the land not through great intelligence, but because he perfected a speech and rode it [and fear of the commies] to the top.
I can freely say all this because in the end, the truth doesn’t matter because we republicans are just so damn good at spinning things around so even many who should know better vote for our guys anyway. Why anyone of sane mind would support a nutjob like Ted Cruz or an idiot like Sarah Palin still keeps me in awe of our propaganda machine. But enough people do and the idiots in the mainstream media give kooks like these two all the access they want to remain relevant and taken seriously.
This brings me to the republican’s best friend, and no, it isn’t ObamaCare or the NRA. It’s Edward Snowden. For all the praise the hard left gives this guy, we on the right owe him even more. You see friends, this guy is a dupe in the quest for my beloved republican party to achieve it’s ultimate goal of a corporate ruled America and eventually the world.
The rage now is against the NSA for holding all this information on Americans. Even though it probably has no more info on anyone than Google, or Facebook or your credit card company. So the cure for this according to our dupes is to prevent government from holding this information and having a third party keep it. Just like Google and Facebook and Citibank do right now. But because our “government is evil” propaganda has worked so well, enough of the public will demand our information be “privatized.”
The obedient republicans, the absolute moron tea party republicans who think anything with the word “private” in it must be a good thing, and the always reliable pansies on the democratic side will overwhelmingly support this and soon enough my favorite company, HALLIBURTON, will be in control of your information, and according to plan, this will all come to pass without a shot being fired.
Real Americans will rejoice at this wondrous thing. No government big brother spying on us. Just our good friends at Halliburton. And for this we have to thank one man who thought he was doing the right thing. The man hailed as a hero for freedom. The ultimate dupe: Edward Snowden.
But don’t worry America. The greatest vice president ever, Dick Cheney, will be looking out for you.

Joe, as usual you put a great spin on a story. Although you are probably right. This country is in such a mess right now that I guess you are the only one wo knows what’s up.
Um, when was it I gave you leeway to discuss my fantasy about having the sexy times with Prez O when he came to my doorstep? That’s it, I am never telling you anything like that again, now that I know you will put it on the internetz machine to shame me 😉
I could have been talking about anyone Jess. I talk to lots of women. Naturally it’s about chastity and soul saving and such, but if they want to confess naughty fantasies, just as the Pope said, who am I to judge?
Whew, then I can breathe easy now knowing it was some other woman said this stuff to you. Carry on 🙂
I only wish it was snark Timmy.
It’s SNARK SUNDAY! Love this Joe and I’m sure Big Dick Cheney will too man.
