Cons on the eve of self-destruction

I've come to the conclusion peak wingnut really doesn't exist. There's no depth to which they will not sink. But there's hope for the future. They've reached the point where they're willing to destroy themselves on the off chance it might piss off us dirty libruls:

The voodoo storefront has evoked outrage in the beachfront community of Spring Lake, N.J. But Bill Skuby, 66, owner of the local men's store, Skuby & Co. Lifestyle Clothing, insists that the display is not political. ... "It's personal."

The store's window display depicts an image of Obama's head superimposed in the body of a witch doctor that rests atop the word "Obamacare." The witch doctor image is placed under a tombstone epithet that reads, "I Told You I Was Sick," accompanied by a photo of the president in a doctor's coat and stethoscope.

On the tombstone stands an Obama bobble-head doll sporting a long-sleeved tee that reads, "Hoax," and underneath that is a zombie mannequin rising from the dead wearing a hat that says "F.Y.B.O.," an acronym apparently for an expletive phrase denouncing the president.

"If you want to call me a racist then go ahead. I can assure you I am not a racist; I just really want to see Obama go." Skuby said. "This is a good example of where race relations are under this guy's administration. ... This has absolutely nothing to do with race."

Of course equating our POTUS with a African witch doctor straight out his viral emails has nothing to do with race. He's just taking a stand. Exercising his First Amendment rights. And he doesn't give a damn if his petty assholery ruins his livelihood.

Seeing a lot of this sort of thing lately. It's getting harder for them to sustain the hard right mythology. In the darkest reaches of their tiny closed minds, they know they're losing. Rabid cons are self-destructing all over the place. Thinking eventually they'll just die out completely, like the Shakers.

On a related note, here's another litte "not racist" GOP joke. Republican candidate Tommy Thompson’s son tells the true Murkins at a campaign rally, “We have the opportunity to send Obama back to Chicago -- or Kenya." Of course he's so very sorry if any humor impaired liberals are offended. (Video at the link.)
