THE TEARS OF A CLOWN

W

WKomm

The 12 minutes I listened to Doris Monson on KIRO yesterday was among the most entertaining bits of radio I've heard all year. It was truly fun to hear Mr. Mom-chismo, he of the Seahawks Manly Men, stammer and strain as the truth finally sets in:

Obama will most likely be elected today and that will most likely cost Doris some not-so-hard-earned cash.

Last night I'm sure he surveyed his traded out home, surrounded by a traded out Invisible Fence, glanced loving at the traded out JagWire in the driveway and thought: Obama wants me to give all this up.

Yes, Doris - it's sad. Although you, as a Faux Libertarian, would sincerely like to believe that all men are islands, it just ain't true. Seven years of a badly conceived war (led by Dubya, yer hee-row), seven years of Wall Street greed unbridled by those pesky gubmint regulations and seven years of a savant in the White House whose prime directive has been guided by "They tried to kill mah dad!" has led to this shining moment:

You may actually be forced to go to Disneyland with the fam in 09 instead of back to Italy. You may actually have to buy a few things in 09. You may actually be asked to pay for infrastructure costs, health care for the lower classes and unemployed. You may actually have to face up to a tax rate that other industrialized nations (you know, the ones that are killing us in the global market) face every working day.

The quivering voice and stretched tendons were a welcome sound when compared to the usual Wizard of Odds bombast Doris tosses out.

After that display of sniveling, I have only three words for Obama:

Bring. It. On.

A good example of that would be Monson's bloviating last Friday about how the anti-Rossi PA Yacht Club spot was "specially edited" for his show, taking out the mention of the GOP candidate's alleged ties to special interest groups.

Uh-huh. That was the 15 minutes I happened to catch - 15 minutes of my life I'll never get back.

And don't be surprised, WKomm. I've always agreed with your assessments of Monson - and it's good to see you taking a different approach in this post!
 
Who cares? Much a do about no one. Lame subject. It's not even radio.
 
SRP - I don't support Rossi but I had to wonder who thought it would be a good idea to have a press conference at a "yacht club", no matter how tiny and down-home it is. And, as you mentioned, it's high-larry-us when Doris goes off on one of her "only on my show" rants. It's like air escaping through a prick-hole; lots of noise with little substance.

Sam - The topic is obviously not lame enough to move you to read & comment.

Placebo1969 - And still you clicked! I've done it myself, often. My fingers twitched, my hand shook as I tried not to .. not to ...

CLICK!

Hard to resist sometimes. As are the sideswipes at a blow hole like Doris.
 
So the guy is a jerk. No one likes him. But who cares. The only one that can take him down is his boss. Your voice is like a cry in the wilderness. Unheard by anyone that can help.
 
I saw the subject. I saw the poster. I knew the topic before I even clicked. That is why I clicked. Funny how that works. Best Doris rant yet!
 
sam - you are so correct. I AM crying. Every time I dare turn on Doris - maybe twice a week for 10 minutes - it DOES feel like I'm connected to a wilderness ... the wilderness of her frickin' mind. Like Michael Medved and his unending rant against all things unChristian, Doris has a one track mindset that the SLUT would envy. The world is out to take his money. We stay up late, thinking of shocking ways to attack American culture and we're enthralled when he rants apoplectic.

Let me say this -

I literally smiled last night every time I think of Doris, knowing he had to be watching the incredible and complete ass-kicking his conservative homeys were getting. It is just incredibly moving to see the people of the world dancing in the streets, waving American flags instead of burning them. They carry Obama photos rather than spitting on photos of Bush. I feel truly blessed to be part of such a momentous moment in history, to see the national game change in one night.

Doris? Open up your wallet. Big Bad Obama is coming to you, asking you to help. BTW - do you file a 1099 for all that swag that you ...

Oh, never mind.

Shoot! There I go again - smiling ear to ear, coffee dribbling onto the keyboard -
