#YallQaeda Waging #Yeehawd Makes Twitter more Fun Than Reality.

++The twitter feeds on the Oregon armed takeover of the bird refuge have been the most fun this year. Apparently,the occupiers are asking people for snacks and socks to be sent by the US Mail while they seek to overthrow the Gub'mint. One response was to send them a copy of the Audacity of Hope. Another was urging Native Americans seize their homes while they are away. Another their homes should be used for refugees. Still others commented that they will hold out until their next government check. In fact one sympathizer said if his disability check were larger he could afford the trip to Oregon.

++The militia's videos are sad. One has a man speaking directly to his daughter saying he couldn't be home for New Year's because he was protecting the Constitution and all he had was his camera. Another told his family that if he never came back,he died protecting the constitution. 

++Ammon Bundy said that if the people in the County wanted them to leave they would. The FBI sid that there would be no Ruby Ridge or Waco. They had learned their lesson and had infinite patience. 

++Rightwingers today tried to bring up the government's seizure of land in the West. I reminded them of the Sagebrush Rebellion that sparked extreme right violence in the West during the 1990s. The Sage brush rebellion was organized at a meeting in Las Vegas paid by your familiar billionaires. The idea was that the federal government owning public land was against the constitution. The flip side of this was WillyNelson and Neil Young's efforts for the farmers who were being disposed by the banks at the time. It cuts both ways.

++One of the militia complained that they weren't given the same respect as Black Lives Matter. A comment back was that whites wanting land that is not their given to them is white privilege to the max.

++Rude Pundit surfaced to say that all these greedy people don't focus on the right stuff. The Hammonds had been prosecuted as terrorists, even though what they did is commit arson to hide the deer killing that had done--hardly terrorism. But now CNN finally called these people terrorists and invoked posse comitatus.
