Messages from the Fringe

Regular Ushanka.us readers understand that our philosophy here is that we see liberals as 'communist-inspired'. We don't see them, individually, as communists. But we see their collective desires addressed only by a communist system. Our assumption that this would never happen was disproved by our new president who has acted on behalf of all these liberal factions, having only ignored the demands of the blacks and gays to date.

By following this philosophy, we have avoided several right-wing themes. We don't need to address these to make our point. Having said that, we feel inclined to post the links below to some of those themes that have gained traction. For your review and assessment:

Worker's Revolution

ACTIVE, the American Constitution and Capitalism Defense Front, has called for a National Strike Against the Dictator for November 4. For you few that still have jobs, you are being called on for this one-day strike.

Obama's Birth Certificate

A favorite theme among the fringe, this went mainstream this week when Army Reserve Major Stefan Frederick Cook requested the President to produce his birth certificate to verify that he has the right to order Major Cook to war. Silly, right?

Well, Major Cook's orders were revoked. Hmmm. That's probably the end of that, right?

In today's news at the Ledger-Enquirer:

...retired Maj. Gen. Carol Dean Childers and active U.S. Air Force reservist Lt. Col. David Earl Graeff have joined the suit “because it is a matter of unparalleled public interest and importance and because it is clearly a matter arising from issues of a recurring nature that will escape review unless the Court exercises its discretionary jurisdiction.”
---
the revised suit states Cook lost his job at Simtech Inc., a corporation that does Department of Defense contracting in the field of information technology/systems integration, because of the suit. It also states that Cook has been subjected to “gossip” from people who believed Cook was “manipulating his deployment orders to create a platform for political purposes.”

So, original lawsuit wins. Then Cook loses his job. Lawsuit is updated to address retaliation and potential of future illegal deployment orders, and two more officers join the fight. This is so easily fixed. Obama just has to show the birth certificate that he used to get a driver's license in Chicago. Why drag this out?

Guns

Want to send the message that you're a right-wing wacko? Just tell people that you're afraid that Obama will take your guns. It is that easy. You might even get on CNN or one of the other state-run outlets!

But, there are some that connect the 2nd Ammendment to the founder's experiences with Britain. There is a worn-out story about a little bridge North of Concord Massachusetts that we won't bore you with. There are more important things, like the 47 million uninsured Americans...

Well, those right-wingers at The Wall Street Journal hid a small opinion piece in Saturday's paper, Second Ammendment Confidential:

Now making their way to the Court are cases about whether the right to bear arms also applies to the 50 states via the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. If it doesn't, then Heller is a hollow shell.
---
Judge Sotomayor has said that it would be appropriate to recuse herself from any rehearing of Maloney v. Cuomo by the Supreme Court, but this week she stopped short of promising to do so. Our guess, based on her history, is that she'll vote like the Court's four liberals who dissented in Heller and say gun rights don't apply to the states.

Those on the fringe sure are weird!
