The book…the proof!!

Note:  This is an opinion piece.  Anything expressed, however justified, is just my opinion, which is based solely on the blog cited below.

There are a lot of morons in cyberspace; thanks to a few weeks of experimentation listening to conservative news radio, I’ve discovered a number of them.  But now, I’ve found what may be the queen moron.  Someone who is so inescapably full of shit that reality bends for her. 

Her name is Anne Leary, and she is a blogger from Chicago.  Nothing unusual there; she is your garden variety “if it’s a part of the Republican Doctrine, it must be the God’s honest truth, regardless of how far fetched it may be…”, Rush Limbaugh sermon listening right wing twit.  No problem there, but her latest blog is just a thing of beauty…

Bill Ayers No Dream

The gist of her tall tale is that she happened to run into Ayers at an Reagan National Airport in Washington.  She snapped a photo.   So far so good, right?  Here’s where she goes all Area 51.  Apparently, after informing Mr. Ayers that she was a Conservative Blogger, he chose to inform her that he had actually written Barack Obama’s book, Dreams From My Father.  He even encouraged her to go forth, find proof, and, I’m sure, blog about it (gathering many views in the process).  Ironically, others in the party have been making a bit of a stink on the same subject, trying to convince others that Mr. Ayers wrote his book.

How very nice of Mr. Ayers to offer up his testimony to you, Ms. Conservative Blogger, at so opportune a time for both you and your party.  I am reminded of stories from people claiming alien abduction; fact is irrelevant, substantiation inconsequential.  The main difference between their obnoxious tales and Ann Leary?  Not a one, from this angle.  Kudos, Ms. Leary, on a wonderful piece of fantasy.  May you enjoy your 15 minutes…
