&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If it&amp;#39;s anything to you, such might serve as an ideal corrolary to the distortions and misinformation (a/k/a &amp;quot;prolefeed&amp;quot;) peddled by conservative media outlets (&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;cf.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt; the following item per Think Progress):&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;In an interview with Newsbusters, former Bush adviser Karl Rove claimed that the conservative blogosphere &amp;quot;has much better quality and quantity&amp;quot; than the progressive blogosphere. Calling left-leaning blogs &amp;quot;unpersuasive,&amp;quot; Rove said &amp;quot;they are, most of them are &lt;a href="http://newsbusters.org/blogs/matthew-sheffield/2008/03/21/newsbusters-interview-karl-rove-slams-lefty-blogosphere-talks-med"&gt;hate-filled, obscenity-clogged rants of anger and hatred&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;quot; Rove has made similar netroots bashing comments before, claiming in a speech last year that bloggers are &lt;a href="http://thinkprogress.org/2007/11/09/rove-bloggers/"&gt;&amp;quot;nutty,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;vitriolic,&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;kooks.&amp;quot;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Isn&amp;#39;t Machiavelli on steroids and amphetamines (as it were) really speaking of conservative-leaning blogs, especially so the ilk specialist in racism, jingoism, anti-Semitism and xenophobia with these remarks?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;And now for something completely different....&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Two Monty Python classics in one video, as may or may not be insightful to the situation America has been reduced to under His Fraudulency:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;The &amp;quot;New Cooker Sketch&amp;quot; (as in a working-class housewife getting a new gas stove delivered, but unable to get installation completed because of all manner of paperwork).&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&amp;quot;The Army is Dangerous&amp;quot;/&amp;quot;Army Protection Racket&amp;quot; (the vid speaks for itself, especially the latter segment about two &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Cosa Nostra&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt; types offering to protect the army base starting&amp;nbsp;@ 15/- [75p], later coming down to 12/6 [63p], then 8/6 [43p] and a final offer of 5/- [25p]/week).&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Judge for yourself, readers, the insightfulness, if any, of the same to the current American situation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Or so you, dear viewer, will likely think after seeing this classic Monty Python number.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(And especially so as a way of cutting short particularly obnoxious propaganda messages before they get too attractive to the mentally-disordered.)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
