So, I was perusing some reality-challenged sites last night, trying to figure out why in the hell Jemma from "Sons of Anarchy" was bad-mouthing the Pope on Jake Tapper, when I ran across something really special.
It seems that right-wing wonderboy James O'Keefe doesn't want to be a fake pimp, pretend phone man OR a real sex-toy kidnap rape-boat captain after all:
What James really wants to be is.... a cowboy! No, really, he does. This shit don't write itself....let's go:
">So, it appears that the current title-holder in the category: 'Most Opposite Name Compared To What It Really Represents Group' , 'Project Veritas', has put up a new highly-edited video about 'fraud' - which, I gotta give 'em credit, they ARE highly familiar with - in Obama's 'Netscape Navigator' program. (What? Oh. Whatever, close enough. At least one of the words is right, am I right?)
---When I tried to go to the 'Project Veritas' website, my anti-virus software had a FIT, so I've decided to put a degree of separation between us and offer you the chance to watch it through Glenn Beck's equally crazy but less computer-virusey site.---
For those who can't watch due to 'fuck me if I ever click a link to Glenn Beck' syndrome, or for any other reason, here's the re-cap:
James O'Keefe, in an office of sorts with a cow skull on the wall, begins to tell us about the massive fraud he's uncovered interspersed with highly-edited snips of Obama's 'minions' informing people to LIE,,,yes,,, LIE, LIE LIE! on their Socialism-Care applications.
At about the 1:15 mark, we see a pair of boots, and some music starts...it's familiar, but you can't quite put your finger on it. Camera pans up to reveal that the boot-wearer is none other than a cowboy-hatted James, trying to look 'sxxy' (I think that's what he was going for.)
A bright blue light dances around the screen (it looked like it came from his crotch, but not sure) and splooge-like transforms into a soap bubble with the Project Veritas logo.
He bursts into an old-time saloon, and walks through two lines of cowboy-hatted line dancers.
He steps up to the bar and says "Cranberry juice."
The bartender giggles "He, he, he...", but James stares him down and his smile turns to a look of fear.
James grabs the remote to the TV box and says "Mind if I put somethin' on, barkeep?"
As he hits the remote and the video zooms in to the rest of his 'report', the music comes up:
"Riding on the range, I've got my hat - on..."
It's truly a thing of beauty, trust me. If you need a morning laugh, check it out. I'm not gonna editorialize on it....it speaks for itself.
(This is NOT snark...that shit really happened.)
It's cool with me if James O'Keefe wants to be a cowboy - actually, the video ends with him back at the saloon sayin' "There's a new sheriff in town." - cowboy/sheriff, live your life, James. Find your 'inner cowboy'.
What I wonder is if Mr. Free Market himself paid the licensing fees to the band 'Boys Don't Cry'?
And who said Republicans don't do irony?
6:54 AM PT: This is NOT snark!
