New communicable disease...

 

 

 

 

DUMBYAONIC PLAGUE

 

A pandemic affliction which carries an arrogant, self-righteous,

condescending dictatorship into the fevered delusion that they are

called upon to dupe a mindless, naive citizenry into believing that

preemptive wars, outrageous economic inequities, environmental

pollution, irrational paranoia, religious zealotry, sexual insecurity,

homophobia, media suppression, Social Darwinism, corporate welfare, and

abdication of civil liberties are necessary components of a democracy.

 

Common symptoms include equating debate with sedition and opposition

with treason; substituting absurd neo-conservative ideology for

pragmatism; confusing FOX " News " drivel with reality; and praising the

intellectual genius of the illegitimate progeny of Joe McCarthy (e.g.,

Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, Tom Delay).

 

Persons suffering from this malady can often be heard uttering phrases

such as " It's all Clinton's fault " , " Whacko liberal traitors " , " my God

is better than your God " , " Bring 'em on " , " deficits don't matter " and

" more tax cuts " .

 

Ineffective treatments have included wrapping oneself in a large flag

and constantly singing " God Bless America " .
