Another Inconvenient Obama Blogger Down the Memory Hole

Thu, Jun 26, 2008 at 10:07:17 am PDT

The next Obama associate to be tossed aside and washed down the memory drain—Mike Klonsky, a comrade of Weather Underground leader William Ayers: How is it under that bus, Comrade Klonsky?

Yesterday I opened a browser window to Klonsky’s now-vanished blog, but didn’t get around to writing about it; here’s a screenshot:

The link to Klonsky’s blog now produces a familiar message: “Invalid blog/profile URL.”

Previously at LGF:

Instead of a bus, maybe it would be simpler for Obama to just start building the gulags now, for his political enemies.

I know construction wasn't scheduled to start until January '09, but I see there is already a need for them.

Let's not forget also that Klonsky and Obama go back for more than a decade. They were in the same group as Ayers and Doern of "community activists". This is no passing affiliation, but rather a very necessary scrubbing of Obama's background for fear that the truth will out - that Obama consorted with terrorists who had no problem plotting attacks against the US Capitol, murdering NYS troopers, or committing a wide range of terroristic acts against the government in the name of hope and change.

However, I don't end up vacuuming up, tripping over, or otherwise having a hard time with dog toys.

The world isn't going to just sit there and let you vacuum as often as you want, using as much power as you want to...

The world wants you to use their old roller brush sweeper devices.
Or to use brooms made from switches to sweep your dirt floors.

The world doesn't want you to keep pets fat & happy when people are starving.

You think you have constitutional rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of cleanliness?

You would think if Obama really was the legal mind that got a JD degree at an ivy league school that he would have more to say regarding today's Heller decision. And yet he sounds like any other yammering politician. There's something in that.

Mock Obama Now

See, what happened was Jon Stewart made fun of Obama. That being his JOB and all. He's a comedian. (Do you know what that word means, Obama pods? His show is called the Daily Show - it is a send up of the news, obama pods. Do you understand satire, Pod kids? Did you get that lesson in re-education camp?)

Joseph Palmero, professor of Fascist Midwifing Studies at U.C. Bong Hit, wrote this at the intellectual crack house commonly known as the Huffington Post:

Jon Stewart and The Daily Show should be mindful whenever Obama is the target of their satire that they don't end up regurgitating Republican talking points.

Whoa NELLIE! There is a pre-fascist statement (or pre Maoist, if you like) if ever there was one.

I gotta agree with you on that. My mom spent $2,000 - that's $2,000 - on some kind of fancy-schmancy vacuum that used a water filtration system - it took a full 15 minutes to set the thing up before you could even start vacuuming, then it was heavy to move around, and then it was heavy to remove the water and dispose of it . . . I think she used it once.
