You’ve heard of the “isolationist” right but I want to tell you about the “desolationist” left.
The desolationists rose up recently, decrying Obama’s “gaffe” of calling California Attorney General Kamala Harris “by far the best-looking attorney general in the country.” (“Gaffe” means someone in power absentmindedly telling the truth, like Chuck Hagel saying that a United States Senator’s first job is to represent America, not Israel. OK, maybe this was more of a misunderstanding on Hagel’s part than a true gaffe but he did say it.)
The desolationists wrote many columns analyzing Obama’s Kamala Harris comment in the same week that they failed to notice the two Afghan children he killed and seven adult civilians he wounded the preceding Saturday, the four Afghan policemen and two civilians he killed on Thursday and the eleven Afghan children and one woman that he killed the following Saturday — over six times as many people as were killed at the Boston Marathon. It was a banner week for the pedocider-in-chief. Years ago, Iran’s Ahmadinejad was mis-translated as saying that Israel should be “wiped off the map” but Barack Obama actually does wipe completely innocent people off the map — every week — and he doesn’t shed a tear about them. But desolationists will imagine that Ahmadinejad does more damage to the world than Barack Obama….
