    Applying Glenn Beck-ish paranoia elsewhere

    This is a simulation; What if the anti-war movement adopted Glenn Beck-esque paranoia -- the kind which makes ACORN into a super villain?
    What might that look like?
    My guess:

    "Hmmm, it all comes to me now. When the Bush administration began humming their 'let's further invade the Middle East' tune, maybe they were following the Obama/Acorn example!
    Obviously, more veterans can equal more programs like these:
    '...The committee, led by the gentleman from Missouri (Mr. Talent),
    designed the bill to coordinate assistance to veterans who
    were seeking to start their own businesses and reach for their piece of
    the American dream. We passed that act unanimously, and the centerpiece
    of that legislation was the National Veterans Business Development
    Corporation, which was set up to coordinate private and public sector
    activities on behalf of veterans and begin the establishment of a
    nationwide network of veterans assistance centers, which would assist
    veterans with the help they need to start their own businesses and take
    hold of their American dream.
    This amendment does not take money from any other program, it is
    there in the bill, and it is intended for this corporation.'

    Any other examples?

    Yeah, but you're forgetting what our presidents have in common with every communist dictator that ever lived, and also Hitler: their love of war.

    And what do we get when we put the word "war" on the chalkboard?
    Wimpy
    and
    Anal
    Retentive

    Now folks, I'm not saying every war ever fought was created by wimpy and anal retentive leaders. But I mean, look at history and do the math.
