Satanic Verses

par·o·dy (păr’ə-dē), n., pl. -dies. def: Something so bad as to be equivalent to intentional mockery; a travesty. Hugo Chavez is a self-parody. Every time he opens his mouth, he demonstrates a complete lack of rationality and merely succeeds in mocking himself. A clown. No less, no more.

He belongs to a select group of people with the same affliction, most noteably Cindy Sheehan, Howard Dean, Barbara Streisand, Kim Jung Il, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and last but not least Al Gore. These people listen to the voices in their head and shut off all communication with the outside world.

The problem is not that they won’t listen but that they won’t shut up. They are surrounded by sycophants who serve only to reinforce any and every ridiculous thing they say. This is not healthy - either for them or for us. Their minds have wandered off into another dimension and we can laugh at them only for a brief time before our own brains begin to hurt.

Like the 9/11 conspiracy theorists who continue to hammer us with absurd conjecture, these people like Chavez just keep spouting nonsense day after mind-numbing day. Their main delusion seems to be that they think the rest of us will start believing them - eventually.

How much longer must we continue to laugh at them before they wake up and realize what complete fools they have become? Odds are they will continue no matter how much ridicule is heaped on them. Why? Because, to a clown, laughter is the same thing as applause.

ig·no·ra·nus (ig-n&-’rA-n&s), n., pl. -nus·es also ig·no·ra·ni. def: An individual who is not only stupid as hell but is also a colossal asshole. From the latin: ignorare - “do not kow” and anus - “the terminal point of the rectum”. In other words, unable to find their ass using both hands and a road map.

 
 
Calvin: Do you believe in the devil? You know, a supreme evil being dedicated to the temptation, corruption, and destruction of man?
 
 
Hobbes: I’m not sure that man needs the help.

Chavez: Bush ‘Devil;’ U.S. ‘On The Way Down’
_{UNITED NATIONS (CNN) - 7:40 p.m. EDT, September 20, 2006}

“The devil came here yesterday,” Chavez said, referring to Bush, who addressed the world body during its annual meeting Tuesday. “And it smells of sulfur still today.” Chavez accused Bush of having spoken “as if he owned the world” and said a psychiatrist could be called to analyze the statement.

“As the spokesman of imperialism, he came to share his nostrums to try to preserve the current pattern of domination, exploitation and pillage of the peoples of the world. An Alfred Hitchcock movie could use it as a scenario. I would even propose a title: ‘The Devil’s Recipe.’ “

Chavez also blasted the United Nations, calling the General Assembly “merely a deliberative organ” that meets once a year. “We have no power, no power to make any impact on the terrible situation in the world,” he said.

All countries should dispose of their nuclear bombs, he said, but he would like to tap the technology for energy purposes because Venezuela’s oil reserves are nonrenewable and finite. He ended the news conference by saying, “I have a meeting with the axis of evil somewhere around here, so I have to go.”

John Bolton, U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, dismissed the speech, saying, “I think that [Chavez’s] rhetoric today shows exactly what kind of man he is. We’re not going to address that sort of comic-strip approach to international affairs. The real issue here is he knows he can exercise freedom of speech on that podium and, as I say, he could exercise it in Central Park, too. He’s not giving the same freedom to the people of Venezuela.”

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
