A Tea Party soldier? Yeah, right

Jared Loughner is a basement boy, a live-at-home loser.
This is whatâs killed the limousine liberalsâ desperate attempts to paint this guy as anything other than what he is, which is a nobody. Itâs impossible to build a proper conspiracy theory around Beavis and Butt-head.
Everybody knows some loser kid whoâs never left home. Of course, theyâre not homicidal, but theyâre also not involved in any conspiracies either, except maybe to get high. Thereâs a Jared Loughner on every block in America.
Consider this layaboutâs pre-shooting life: 22 years old, lived with his parents, didnât have a job, didnât have a girlfriend, couldnât even pass the drug test to get into the Army. Worshipped a skull in his dadâs backyard. Heâd even been thrown out of community college â something that has never before happened to anyone, ever.
Talk radio? He didnât listen to AM radio, he didnât listen to FM radio, he listened to his iPod, dude.
The Tea Party? Try Hempfest.
Glenn Beck? Try Beckâs beer. Or maybe just Beck, and how does his most famous song go: âIâm a loser, baby.â
Yes, you are, Jared. He didnât even have a car. He took a cab to the congresswomanâs meet-and-greet. And then stiffed the cabbie.
This is the guy the rumpswabs and bowtied bumkissers are trying to make into the Timothy McVeigh of the 21st century.
The limousine liberals are trying to resurrect 1995 and the days of the Michigan militia and Oklahoma City. Those were the days, my friend â the Internet barely existed and Fox News didnât. How long ago was it? People actually read the Sunday Globe back then.
But times have changed. The Big Lie just isnât what it used to be. Just ask Dan Rather and â60 Minutes.â What was the famous New York Times [NYT] headline about the Texas Air National Guard memos â âFake but Accurateâ?
Most people now instinctively understand that you can always tell when the network anchors are lying â their lips are moving.
But the real reason people know this isnât a giant right-wing conspiracy is because they know local losers like Jared Loughner. They may live with their parents, but I guarantee you, none of them will be shoveling out the driveway today.
Yet all these Obama-worshipping liberals want you to believe Loughner was a storm trooper of âvitriol,â their new favorite word. But it would take a battalion of Jayson Blairs to make this guy anyone more than he was â a nut.
Rush Limbaugh? The only Rush Jared knew was the band, and just barely.
Someone cue Jared Loughnerâs theme song, by Beck . . . âIâm a loser baby . . .â
