Buy war bonds

Atrios:

Can't wait until I can buy some war bonds. Hopefully when you buy them they put your name on a freedom bomb.


Maybe Obama will introduce a new revenue stream in these dire, kick-the-dog-in-the-mouth economic conditions: The Adopt-a-Freedom Bomb Program. For only $300 (or 30,000 cents, for 30,000 new troops), you can put your name, or picture of your family, or a "patriotic message for our fighting men and women" on a Freedom Bomb shot from the Uncle Sam Mobile (or Predator Drone) on those evil "Muslim turrrists."

Speaking of Muslims, I got a braindead chain e-mail today that proclaims elementary schools in Europe are backing off teaching the Holocaust for fear of offending Muslims. First off, this is transparently a dog whistle for political correctness fetishists. But even so, it turns out this chain e-mail is years old, not to mention bogus. Disgustingly-stupid chain e-mails are one thing the bigoted wing of the American Right does best, because its intellect-suspicious, xenophobic deadender following will believe anything to fit their narrative of a persecuted white race.
