My sincere apologies to Lewis Carroll for what follows.
Once upon a time, in a land uncomfortably close to home, a place called Newsbeckistan, there lived a xenophobic, homophobic, reactionary zealot named Malice (substitute Sharonn, Michele, Sarah). One day, while out hunting for bunny rabbits with her Tek-9 a FOX crossed her path. Rather than shoot it she opted to follow it to its lair, whereupon she fell into the FOXhole, a black, nearly bottomless abyss. After she recovered from her initial shock she met many of the inhabitants of this vile place who gathered around to welcome her. She discovered, not unsurprisingly, that there were no atheists there. All professed to be devout, gun loving, bible thumping Christians. One by one they introduced themselves. There was Glenn, the mad-hater; Smiley O’Reilly, the Cheshire scat; Sean the evil spawn; Ayn, the Red State Queen and Rupert Morlock, the old FOX himself. BTW unrelated to Jeremy Morlock from Wasilla, AK, you know who’s home town. He is one of five Army alleged murderers of Afghan civilians.
"Come", said the Red State Queen, "let’s have a tea party". And so off they went to the Red State Queen’s castle. When they were all seated at the table under a Big Tent which excluded Muslims, Mexican Americans, African Americans and other undesirables, Malice asked if she might add some of her very special flaky white stuff to the tea so they could all get bagged. "Wonderful" cried the assembled crowd, "let’s all get wasted. Then we can’t be blamed for being complete morons when we go to town hall meetings." Smiley O’Reilly merely smiled as the rest of him faded away, leaving only a dung pile spewed from his mouth. The mad-hater, ever at Morlock’s Beck and call, groveled and groused and mewled his Hannity inanities, while tears of insincerity flowed.
The story will continue as events unfold.
