An ant being dismembered

The first analogy that came to mind when I saw this image was that the victim ant was Barack Obama, and the red ants were political factions, Congressional opponents, media critics, corporate officers, disappointed Progressives...

  1. Funny, my first thought had nothing to do with creating a post to share my unrelated political views.

  2. Funny, my first thought was that this is his blog and he gets to decide what to post--whether you like it or not.
    I'm not questioning your right to disagree with the 'political view' of this or any other post. But making snarky comments about what someone chooses to post on THEIR blog is just silly.

  3. That was your first thought? It sounds pretty defensive, but hey, it's not mine. *snark snark*
    Oh, by all means let the blogger post what he wants! If he wants to venture into political territory, so be it. Comments usually follow suit, but they tend to be too "Team Edward vs. Team Jacob" for my taste.
    Judging by the post, I figure the blogger is engrossed in the script and drama of politics, so what else should I want but some entertainment value? And I get it by poking fun at the underlying motivation. Cheers!

  4. This blogger is terrific, and he certainly has a right to say what he likes, but it does not surprise me that this would jar. This writer shows such an awareness of what's going on, and for him to be so naive about Obama, just beggars belief. 'Disappointed progressives?' picking on poor Obama, who has continued and extended every policy of the Cheney/Bush regime. If this brillian blogger is still hoodwinked, there's no hope!

  5. If you don't agree with me, you are wrong.

  6. I thought it was Obama's red friends tearing apart the fabric of the United States
