And Speaking of Paranoia...

… here’s our Ultimate Wingnut of 2005, John Hindrocket.

A Conspiracy So Vast… 
Reuters has an interesting story on a report that federal prosecutors may bring the first treason charge since World War II against Adam Gadahn, a Muslim convert who joined al Qaeda and has made a series of videos threatening attacks against the U.S.
As I say, an interesting story. But the meta-story of the day, apparently, is Mark Foley, and all other news must be seen through the prism of its relevance (or lack thereof) to the formerly-obscure legislator. So Reuters can’t resist this weird interpolation:
The sources denied the case was timed to deflect attention from the fallout over lewd computer messages sent by a former Republican congressman to young male aides, a scandal that may help Democrats seize control of Congress in November 7 election.
Yes, I’m beginning to see it now…the Bush administration is fighting the war on terror in order to distract voters from Mark Foley! Are we living in an upside-down political world, or what?

Mr. Hindrocket is right! Yes, only a crazy person would wonder about the timing of charging Gadahn with treason at this time, even though he is believed to be overseas somewhere, and has been making his propaganda videos for a couple of years now.  Can’t you loony moonbats see that charging Gadahn with treason now, and then executing him during the next Republican sex scandal, is a vital part of the Bush administration’s war on terror?  After all, as an esteemed conservative philosopher once said, we need “to physically intimidate liberals by making them realize that they can be killed, too.  Otherwise, they will turn out to be outright traitors!”   You know, like Gadahn.

So, just forget about Foley and focus on the stuff that is really important right now: investigating Sandy Berger for mishandling those classified documents in 2003, and pointing out that Ted Kennedy was involved in a fatal auto accident in 1969.

This conspiracy is SO vast, wait, there’s someone knocking at my door….(sound of screaming, glass breaking and a laughing Pelosi)…

I think the most damning irony will be when Gadahn is found to have been another “over- utilized” page.

…and that Michael Moore is fat. Never forget that!
