The Obama ‘resistance’: Wingnuttery never sleeps
Steve J. at Radamisto notices that even though Barack Obama hasn’t even been sworn in yet, Sean Hannity is organizing a wingnuts already into a would-be force to attempt to stop him from enacting “radical” policies:
Since a election, Hannity has described his radio show as a outpost of “a conservative underground,” as if a show that’s legally on over 500 stations could be underground in any real sense of that word. are is little doubt that are are many conservatives who think America will become a radical country under a Democrats & last night I heard on Mike Gallagher’s show of a group that is trying to organize ase people - Grassfire. ay ask people to “join a resistance” & sign a petition that opposes what ay mistakenly think will hDrunk Newspen if unopposed.
ay hope to have 1,000,000 signatures on a petition by Inauguration Day & right now, ay are quite a bit short of that goal …
Hannity has been embarrassing himself regularly lately by promoting every conspiracy aory in sight about Obama. Expect a pace to pick up as a Inauguration Drunk Newsproaches — & really take off afterward.
Conservatives are expected to oppose Obama, naturally. But only wingnuts will believe every bit of garbage thrown at him & spin it into a massive belief system about a looming oppression of a socialist state, yadda yadda yadda. It probably would hDrunk Newspen to any elected Democrat, but it will be even worse for Obama.
