It is beyond imagination that anyone could misconstrue the Soviet agitprop in Jay Carney's kitchen as an indication that White House Press Secretary Jay Carney and his wife somehow share the same ideas as the perpetrators of a brutal regime that starved its own citizens while the political elites lived in luxury, abused power, prosecuted the opposition, and ruled the country by means of executive orders.

Next, they would claim that that a neat stack of Chairman Mao's Little Red Books in Valery Jarrett's bathroom is not there merely to serve as an elegant accent to complement the shower curtains; or that the Black Panther Party insignia on Michelle Obama's pajamas isn't merely a bold decorative pattern; or that the black flag of holy Jihad in Huma Abedin's bedroom is somehow indicative of her sympathies towards the Muslim Brotherhood.

Following such flawed right-wing logic, one might even speculate that Saul Alinsky's books on Hillary Clinton's living room mean anything other than an effort to disguise an obscure dried spot that had mysteriously appeared on the coffee table in the last year of her husband's presidency.

Possibly, if her name is Oleg Atbashian.

The original source appears to be "The People's Cube (http://thepeoplescube.com/peoples-blog/the-real-meaning-of-soviet-agitprop-in-jay-carney-s-kitchen-t13853.html)" and or "Pyjamas Media", neither of which is "some women's magazine". And, really, wow, that site is so, uh, something. Let's put it this way: It makes Pyjamas Media look rational and well-written.

I'll take your word for it. I'm afraid to click such a strange link.

[madam-shapo.livejournal.com]

You better click on "Washingtonian" link.

[moonshaz.livejournal.com]

If you mean the link you posted, yeah, no. The image and text in the op is not on that page.

It is, however, at the site [Bad username or site: theweaselking: @ livejournal.com] posted.

What's not to like about their humor?

[hardblue.livejournal.com]

Wow, that is some hardcore righty stuff alright.

It reminds one why we are so polarized and seem
to live in different universes with our own realities.

Because we do!

[fizzyland.livejournal.com]

Right wing humor seems to be based on how mean-spirited they can be.

[madam-shapo.livejournal.com]

Did you ever heard the left-wing jokes about Palin? I don't like this one myself, but to say that rude and mean jokes are one-sided is ridiculous.

[the-rukh.livejournal.com]

No I haven't, please share!

[madam-shapo.livejournal.com]

Are you serious? Please don't ask me for a proof, because it's too much for me to look for it.
-Letterman joking about A. Rod getting her 14 year old daughter pregnant. Very similar to the cartoon, except Sandra is very much an adult, also she was involved in the issue.
-Bill Moyers HBO, whatever his last name, calling Sara very rude names, I can't even wright.
-Schultz MSNBC, calling very rude names Laura Ingraham.
And those are major national outlets, versus some hardly known to anybody website.

Sandra Fluke testified before Congress that hormonal birth control should be included in health care coverage. For that, she's been called a slut and a whore constantly, from Rush Limbaugh and misogynists on the right.

And yes, there were some shitty and sexist things said about Sarah Palin. The difference is volume. That stuff is a blip on the left whereas it seems to be a feature on the right. Lets not forget the constant and ongoing disrespect leveled towards President Obama.

[madam-shapo.livejournal.com]

Let's be honest - nobody measured the volume. I might agree with you about Obama, though Bush wasn't treated very well either. And there is always an argument - they brought it on themselves.

[the-rukh.livejournal.com]

Ok I won't ask you for evidence. XD

[madam-shapo.livejournal.com]

Thanks for trust.

- Letterman was joking about Palin's actual daughter who actually got pregnant out of actual wedlock, and was mistaken in thinking that daughter was the daughter who was with Palin. Dumb joke, yes, but meant to be about someone who was underage.

- Bill Maher is a libertarian.

- Schultz apologized. Schultz offered to suspend himself without pay, and did so.

[madam-shapo.livejournal.com]

Great, I get it - whatever left does is a mistake, no big deal, piece of art. But if the same thing is done by right, actually those guys aren't even the right - nobody knows them, then it's mean, racist, sexist and plain outrageous.

[mylaptopisevil.livejournal.com]

I can't even wright.

At least something in this post was funny.

[yes-justice.livejournal.com]

Wake me when it becomes the hate industry that is the segment of vitriol dedicated to Hillary Clinton over the last 20 years. There could be sections in the book stores for anti Hillary books since 1992.

[moonshaz.livejournal.com]

It's there. I decided to live dangerously and click on it, lol!

[yes-justice.livejournal.com]

Thanks for doing the legwork on the source. Nice to see someone values credibility.

[madam-shapo.livejournal.com]

You guys take yourselves way too seriously. I am going to consult my layer before saying anything.

[yes-justice.livejournal.com]

So full of shit.

[cinnamontoast.livejournal.com]

No. It's the credibility of the artist and the writer that people take seriously - Even if it's the credibility of the 'hive mind' with a meme, which are usually made obvious by structure or a website link at the bottom. That's what people take seriously. You posted this without a source so it appeared that you wrote the text. You didn't. Then you refused to source it when asked, several times. That's plagiarism and it damages your credibility in the future.

So, no. It's not about "us". It's about your credibility.

No one is going to call the Internet Police to backtrace you, so you won't need your Internet Lawyer.

[madam-shapo.livejournal.com]

If you read the very first comment, you'll see that I plainly said - I didn't write it. Second, I never refused to disclose the source-there was just a little misunderstanding, and that wasn't even person that I was talking too. Thanks for your concern about my future, this isn't a satire - I'm serious this time. I guess my sense of humor is a little bit different, so I have to point it out - not trying to offend you.

[moonshaz.livejournal.com]

I suppose your lawyer might have some advice, but if you consult your "layer," she'll probably just say something like, "Cluck, cluck, cluck."

Sorry, cheap shot, but I couldn't resist after reading the nonsense in this post! :-D
