It's always good to start the day with a joke, and what fun it was to see the onion muncher being heavily trolled …
Anyone wanting the full effect can twitter away here ... leading to the key question for the day … is the onion muncher or Barners the biggest political joke of the day, or is it Malware because he actually has the capacity to muck things up, as with the naked attack on industry funds (yes, industry, not union), as opposed to under-performing rip-off funds?
Never mind, as always, Wednesday is Dame Slap day, and the pond will follow her through thick and thin … even if the reptiles struck a sour note with some of their promotional activities for her …
Sheesh, she was given the Lobbecke of the day and they lead with a mug shot of a ratbag mug? Here's how they did it earlier ...
That's more like it, fierce controversy and the Lobbecke at the top of the tweet, and the clever lad has framed it 16:9 so that we can get an evocative iPhone 4:3 look, with bonus blur, and blind justice wreaking havoc …
Well the pond has delayed enough, it's time to get on with it, and get another serve of the graphic master ...
Actually the pond immediately headed off to the Graudian here and to The Independent here …astonished as it was to discover that there was a right wing fundamentalist ratbag of the bigoted kind that was too extreme for Dame Slap, though not for Don Jr. or Roseanne, as noted in Time here.
Greg Hunters have probably already checked the ratbag here, and there was more on the matter at Leeds Live here … but now it's back to the Dame, recovering from her naughty behaviour to slip in a kind word for ratbag bigots going about their daily business ...
Phew, what a relief, for a moment there the pond was worried, but the Dame came through, with a reminder that the road to totalitarianism is rarely driven along by right wing extremists of the racist kind … damn you leftists, damn you to hell for your refusal to acknowledge that the right to abuse minorities on the basis of sex, race, religion, sexuality, whatever, is god-given … when everyone knows uppity women, pesky, difficult blacks, useless poofters and wayward Islamics are the ruination of everything …
Luckily, it's time to feel some sympathy for Cross of St George wearers … and for denizens of the Intellectual Dark Web … one of the sillier ideas celebrated in the NY Times here ...
Actually, nowhere in the Dame's middle lies the truth.
Stephen Yaxley-Lennon is just another attention-seeking ratbag, of no intellectual distinction, but with a mindless capacity to generate trouble, and in this particular case, to set up a situation whereby astute defence lawyers might have been able to use his behaviour to cost the justice system and the taxpayer hundreds of thousands of pounds, while incidentally threatening the court's ability to reach a decision on the crimes before it …
That sort of destructive, mindless stupidity can't be hidden behind the mindless, meaningless rhetoric Dame Slap offered up in her final par …
As for the rest, it was left to the immortal Pope to address the pigs whispering in the ears of Malware's mob, with more papal insights here ...
After the Onion Muncher's recent efforts it's hard to see how anybody could ever displace him in your top of page menagerie, DP. You may have to create a special permanent spot for him so that you can still have the option of highlighting others caught from time to time in acts of outstanding idiocy.
ReplyDeleteHowever I have to say that for once - and, I sincerely hope, only once - I'm not entirely and altogether unsympathetic to Barners and Campion. In general the Murdoch press, inter alia, have been abominable, and somebody needed to make the media pay something for their sins, even if $150 grand is mere chicken feed, really.
