re: #56 freetoken

That latest essay by VDH is quite an exercise is stroking the remnant conscience of any on the hate-right who might still have a bit of a twinge about how putrid some of the rhetoric has become.

In essence, VDH is telling them: “You’re right, it’s all Obama’s fault.”

Check out VDH’s rant about ‘elites’ also— anti-intellectual anti-academic shite— bonus hilarity excerpt:

Why can’t any of our actors talk like a Humphrey Bogart, Glenn Ford, Lee Marvin, Henry Fonda, James Stewart, Bill Holden, or Gregory Peck? I’m not asking for Jack Palance or Fess Parker, just a normal male mainstream voice. I know there are Al Pacinos and Robert De Niros, but they too seem to fade before the new wave of DiCaprios. Elites talk (and probably sound) like the freedmen in Petronius’s Satyricon.

Yeah, nothing at all ‘elitist’ about that reference, huh?

then he follows up with this:


Today’s male’s voice is often far more feminine than that of 50 years ago. Sort of whiney, sort of nasally, sort of fussy.

Comedy GOLD, jerry!
