re: #5 HappyWarrior

If Hoft and friends quit being drama queens, I think he’d have to find a new line of work. The guy’s always a hysterical little child. I don’t know what he did before political analysis but he should go back to that.

A wingnut friend sent me a link to a Hoft article. It was claiming Obama was signing letters to the families of soldiers killed in action with an electric pen, because his signatures looked similar. The pics accompanying the article were all very small, but I copied and blew them up and you could see that each signature was unique in some way - the shape of the loop on the ‘O’, where it crossed the staff of the ‘b’, etc. I sent the pics back to my friend, marveling sarcastically at how advanced the electric pen was, to make each signature just a little different.

His response? Crickets.

A few months later, he sent me ANOTHER link to a Hoft article. He was still milking the condolence letters. This time it was that they were form letters.

No shit. I asked him if he thought Bush had penned individual letters extolling the specific virtues of each of the 4000 Americans killed in Iraq?

His response? More crickets.

The sad thing is, he was trained as a Scientist, but he is probably one of the most gullible chumps I’ve ever known who wasn’t just an out-aidn-out moron.
