'Glee' Sucker Punches Republican Fans

Must be nice being a leftie and NEVER having to worry about some childish television creator taking a gratuitous shot — from completely out of nowhere — at what you believe in. Not so for we righties. When all we want after a hard day of gay bashing, cross burning and kitten punting is to get lost in mindless entertainment, we always have to worry about stuff like this (see video embed at right).

This is why I stopped watching television over a decade ago. Tired of being insulted. Tired of being disappointed. And you can practically feel the people behind the childish political shot laughing at your Charlie Brown as they once again pull the football away.

“Glee” spent all of last season building up buzz and an audience, and as soon as they get one: POW!

Screw you, righties. We don’t like you and we think you’re stupid for liking Palin.

But it’s more than that. This stuff matters.

“Glee” is millions of dollars of sound and fury aimed squarely at your children. And as we can now see, the creators are all about getting between you and your kids with their political and social agendas. They know Palin is a growing  political force and nothing’s off the table when it comes to marginalizing her  – even at the expense of  their own show’s entertainment value  – even at the expense of audience share.

It’s just a joke, it’s just a joke. Lighten up!

Nice try, Alinskyite.

#1: These jokes always seem to fall one way.

#2. These jokes are everywhere in entertainment. In fact, there are so many  Big Hollywood can barely keep up with them.

Advertisers spend billions of dollars to run the same television commercials again and again and again. The goal is to change minds, buying patterns and behavior. They do it because it works and the entertainment industry is doing the exact same thing with their drip-drip-drip proselytizing.  

At the Southern Republican Leadership Conference the boss asked the crowd if they figured out yet that the Left is at war with them.

If you haven’t figured it out yet…
