"Spam, spam, spam, spam, . . . lovely spam, Democrat spam!"
2004-05-25
Got this poem in my inbox this morning. It’s a stirring manifesto. A call to . . . well, something.

To the Democratic Underground,

Gather strenghth dear Pamphleteers!
the pamphleteers/have hairy ears/their heads are up their tushes/they’d ride an ass/through broken glass/to vote against George Bushes
We the leaders of our new velvet undergound.
Lou Reed is a member of Democrat Underground? Whoda thunk it?
We whose current leaders take us for subverters.
For we do not tranfer sovereignty with ignorance.
Nor sully ouer text with spell chekers
O Pamphleteers.
lend me your ears
O must they sell a government at gunpoint.
And to what end dear Pamphleteers.
To attack from what forward position.
Where, oh were, are my question marks.
O and to take our eyes of the balls.
Eyeballs?
And if we do justice to follow the money.
Let’s all sing The Money Song: "I’ve got ninety thousand pounds in my bank account./I’ve got forty thousand French francs in my fridge./I’ve got lots and lots of lira, Now the deutschmark’s getting dearer,/And my dollar bill could buy the Brooklyn Bridge./There is nothing quite so wonderful as money! . . ."
We have a judicial system a military problem not optimistic.
Take heart dear undergrounders. Here we stand with or without war.
With or without brains.

Dear stupid,

As you did not install the anti-spam software on your PC, we are sending as many copies of this Email as we can to clog up your mailbox as possible. If, you are lapsed in your anti-virus software, we will install a worm that fills up your hard drive. Resistance is futile. We are the Borg. Lower your firewall and surrender your processors. We will add your RAM's and ROM's distinctiveness to our own.

#5  Petrecca sent me DU spam

His words an incoherent jam,
His poetry was dreck.

#4  'pamphleteer' is a term that has been out of general use for over a hundred years. Fits my thesis that the Left is stuck in a time-warp and can't grasp the world is changing, and more generally have no idea how things work or why things happen.

#2  Lately, while at Rantburg, I have been warned by my Norton Anti-Virus during submitting a "query" that there was an attempted intrusion. I now believe it was our poet (??) friend. This would be typical of those chicken shit, pencil necks at Democratic Underground.

#1  I got that, too. It went into the trash as the apparent murmurings of a madman.
