It is amazing that these plainly fictional tales of crocodile-tear woe have currency with parts of the American left.

No one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public."
-- Henry Mencken

James,

It really is just another demonstration of how callous the right can be that you don't empathise with the heartfelt sorrow of this thoughtful and caring father and his delightful daughter.

No, no, a thousand times no. You miss the point. Clearly, Cheche is a pedophile, crying out for our help. Or at least a bad father -- hey, he's male, what more do you want? So his daughter must be seized rescued from his clutches, and placed with her mother a loving foster home, where the state can provide her with abuse far superior to that she would receive from any loving parent.

This came up on The Devil's Kitchen last week. I put my money on him being a very clever troll, and his subsequent denial all part of the act. Nobody could write tosh like that in seriousness, could they?

Did you know there is a book under one side of Che squared's monitor so he can type with his head compassionately tilted?

CheChe, lovely moniker.
Arouses thoughts in all of us of the long dead scrote and 60's poster boy.
Could even be a pun on Chi Chi the giant panda that so famously refused to procreate , it had no offspring at all!
Me? Well I think this guy is a gay Republican, with a great sense of humour!

Perhaps Verity has gone into deep cover with the Kos crowd:)

I'm beginning to notice a pattern here.

What are you implying W E Wessamore !
That the Democrat party are crybabies???
Sob whine surely not.
They are heroes who will gladly stand behind anyone who is in front of them (especially in cases of civil disturbance).

If I had a daughter and told her the Republicans were giving everyone a $100 check, she'd probably ask me to get her a new bike when my check comes in.

Hmmm...$100 times almost 300 million is $30 billion. The budget is almost $2 trillion. Yeah, that's a really big cut.

That guy should read this essay, "Global Problems Are Too Big for Little Kids", by Stephen Hicks: http://www.stephenhicks.org/global_problems.php

Since we lost her mother there hasn't been a lot of free time around here.

Presumably, the Repulicans got 'er.

Jimmy Carter used to pull the same stunt with his daughter while he was President.

She didn't lose her mother. The mother's simply temporarily misplaced, probably buried under a mountain of hooey.

I recall back in the 1980's when during the Imperial Reign of Ronaldus Maximus, loving and oh so caring left wing nutters would constantly tell their children that the bad old republicans wanted to start a nuclear war with the peace-loving Soviet Socialist empire. I recall how these nut cases even wanted their concern (for the children) to be taught in all public schools, etc, etc,..

...then they wondered why their children were having "nuclear nightmares"......

Funniest. Troll. Ever.

I don't think I've ever seen such a look of misery and dejection on the face of my daughter as I just did a moment ago.

I sat down with her on the sofa and (as calmly as I could) tried to explain to her why the Democrats want to immediately pull the troops from Iraq and leave chaos and violence behind, dooming Iraq to fail and punishing the good Iraqis who want our support. I tried to keep my voice steady, but it became increasingly difficult - the rage and feelings of helplessnes were just too much. I think my daughter could tell something was wrong. I found myself at such a loss for words - nothing made any sense; nothing makes sense anymore. I finally had to admit, "Honey, I just don't know - I don't know what's going on in this country anymore..."

When I finished her lower lip started to tremble and her eyes began to fill with tears, "Daddy" she said, "why do the Democrats hate freedom loving people and those who are willing to fight for them?" Well, that was it for me: I finally fell apart. She just fell into my arms and we both began sobbing for several minutes.

Copy, paste, and save this little troll vignette and use it freely for whatever political point you want to make.

Since we lost her mother there hasn't been a lot of free time around here.

Apparently there's enough time for Dad to sit around reading KrazyKos, getting himself all worked up into foaming at the mouth, and posting on comment boards. If it were just him and his daughter, he wouldn't have time to fart around on the computer.

-------------------

Notice the tone of the story and the followup comment "since Mom's dead/gone." It's typical Democrat: since we're victims, and we have suffered, you have no right to criticize our ideas or engage in debate...you heartless bastard.

Child abuse! Children need to see their world as safe and predictable. Once they have the capacity for abstract thought, in mid adolescence at the earliest, they can start thinking in a way that doesn't threaten their basic sense of personal security.

Call Social Services! This dad's an abusive idiot making a neurotic monster to unleash on the world.

He'd do better to shut his yap and sign her up for soccer.

You guys are a little late on this: as Tim Newman points out, I picked it up a week ago...

DK

Um...that's great. Were you expecting some kind of prize?

Yes, please. A bit bowl of jelly and a coconut would be spot on, cheers.

DK

Done! For making the most pointless comment on the thread, you are awarded...a big bowl of jelly and a coconut!

How d'ya feel???

Cheers, James, I feel good.

Yup, pointless comments are amusing. And, of course, when one writes one's own blog rather than piggy-backing off other people's hard work, one is always looking for links (although, let's face it, I don't do badly).

Y'know, it kinda feels good at this end, you irritating little tit.

DK
