Our unhinged rant of the day: a new article by feminist nutbar Naomi Wolf (last seen at LGF praising the religion of Islam for keeping women submissive) at the ever-loony Huffington Post: Naomi Wolf: The Battle Plan II: Sarah ‘Evita’ Palin, the Muse of the Coming Police State.

Please understand what you are looking at when you look at Sarah “Evita” Palin. You are looking at the designated muse of the coming American police state.

You have to understand how things work in a closing society in order to understand “Palin Power.” A gang or cabal seizes power, usually with an affable, weak figurehead at the fore. Then they will hold elections — but they will make sure that the election will be corrupted and that the next affable, weak figurehead is entirely in their control. Remember, Russia has Presidents; Russia holds elections. Dictators and gangs of thugs all over the world hold elections. It means nothing. When a cabal has seized power you can have elections and even presidents, but you have freedom. [sic]

Do people like Wolf really believe this kind of stuff, or are they just working the left wing rubes who eat it up with sporks? A typical comment:

One trillion dollars to bail out the financial institutions? I don’t think so. I think they will use this money to set up their fascist police state, suspend the constitution and declare martial law.

Good grief. Hundreds of comments like that one.
