THE GREAT PHILLY “FART IN” TO PROTEST HILLARY’S FLATULENCE OF THE MOUTH

I’m so sad I’ll be in Colorado during the Philly Democratic National Convention freak show of FSA army members, Black Thugs Matters activists, feminist freaks, trannies, and assorted other nutjobs. But I’m really upset that I’ll miss the great Hillary Fart In. The Wells Fargo Center doesn’t smell great to begin with and Hillary’s supporters already have the wretched stench of liberalism wafting above them. Now add in thousands of baked bean filled Bernie supporters and you’ve got an explosive situation. Mayor Kenney has proposed a fart tax to take advantage of the situation. Here is a preview of Hillary’s DNC acceptance speech:

Philadelphia: Cheri Honkala, the leader of the Poor People’s Economic Human Rights Campaign, announced that her group was organizing the world’s largest “fart-in” to be held on July 28 at the Wells Fargo Center during Hillary Clinton’s anticipated acceptance speech for the Democratic nomination.

“We will be holding a massive bean supper for Bernie Sanders delegates on American Street in my Kensington neighborhood on the afternoon of July 28,” she said. “We are setting up a Clintonville there, modeled on the Hoovervilles of the 1930s where the poor and unemployed built shanty towns. The Sanders delegates, their bellies full of beans, will be able to return to the Wells Fargo Center and greet the rhetorical flatulence of Hillary Clinton with the real thing.”

Honkala said she would issue an invitation to Sanders to join the bean supper, which she is calling Beans for Hillary. She has asked donors to send cans of beans to 1301-W Porter Street, Philadelphia, Pa., 19148.

“Any remaining beans will be served to the homeless, although we will, of course, be urging Sanders delegates to eat as much as possible,” Honkala said.

Chris Hedges, an author and activist who is an ordained Presbyterian minister, will open the Beans for Hillary meal with a nondenominational prayer.

“I am happy to bless a meal that will be put to such effective political use,” Hedges said.

“The Democratic primary process, as Sanders supporters now realize, was rigged from the start,” said Hedges, a Pulitzer-prize winning former New York Times foreign correspondent. “The Democratic National Committee and the Clinton machine used a variety of mechanisms to game the elections including the appointing of superdelgates, the banning of independent voters from numerous primaries, purging voters from voting lists and using millions in dark money and from Super PACs to fund the Clinton campaign. Caucuses, as we saw in Nevada, were shamelessly manipulated on behalf of Clinton. Sanders never had a chance.”

“We need to build a third party and populist movements, freed from Democratic Party control, to defy corporate power,” Hedges said. “This will take more than one election cycle to accomplish. If Sanders will not join us, we will have to do it without him.”

Honkala, who was the Green Party’s vice-presidential nominee in 2012, said the poor and working men and women could not endure more assaults from the forces of neoliberalism and the two corporate political parties.

“The Clintons have done enough damage,” she said. “They decimated the working class with the North American Free Trade Agreement. They exploded the prison population under the 1994 Omnibus Crime bill and draconian drug laws that mandated life sentences. They destroyed the welfare system, and under the old system 70 percent of the recipients were children. They turned the airwaves over to a half dozen corporations by deregulating the FCC. They ripped down the firewalls between commercial and investment banks that precipitated the global meltdown. There is not a war they don’t support. And their record on civil liberties is appalling. We cannot afford more of the same. We are either going to build third party movements or an American Spring.”

Honkala is planning a march on the opening day of the convention, although the city has denied her a permit. It will begin on the south side of Philadelphia’s City Hall at 3 p.m. on July 25. She said the Beans for Hillary event would cap three days of protests during the convention to highlight the plight of the poor and the working poor.

“We get political mutations like Trump because the system does not work on our behalf,” she said. “Putting the Clintons back in power may remove Trump from the scene, but it guarantees that a political figure even more frightening will rise to take his place. Until we wrest back control from corporate power things will only get worse.”

Our elections are growing more refined, sophisticated and civil.

Or maybe not.

A delightful post! Mixed truth and fiction and much humor with an undertow of doom! What a combination of gas!

This whole year is going to be entertaining – first with the Brexit vote (day after tomorrow) and then the antics of idiots throughout the Summer and Fall leading to riots and head banging at BOTH conventions. Then a “vote” in November for either no one or no body as President of what used to be the greatest country on Earth..

Unless, of course, there are revolts at the conventions and something equally interesting and funny happens..

Muck:

The revolt will be in Cleveland, when the Romneyites and the Ryan team vanquish the winner of the Primaries. Thus making the election a cake walk for Hitlery.

Hedges states we need a third party.
Since the two party system has used the two primary colors of the flag,
I think the third party should use the remaining flag color.

the third party could even create uniforms, using this third color,
of course, the uniforms would not need to be elaborate, they could be made from simple bed sheets available in almost all house holds.

In ancient Greece, if you didn’t like any of the candidates on offer, you ‘abstained from beans’, you didn’t gorge yourself. So much progress in the last 2500 years, my head spins.

I guess the violent Leftists are saving up their real temper tantrums for the GOP convention.

Funny – This is verbatim out of Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals where he describes putting out a rumor that poor Black people would hold a fart in at the opera in protest of something or other. Hillary was a big Alinsky fan in her youth so it’s fitting.

But how will they be able to tell the difference between Hillary’s emissions and their own? And you had better have a “no smoking” sign up, or ….!

Albrecht beat me to the Alinsky reference. I think he also used deviled eggs.
The right wingers will avoid Philly. The lefties will swamp Cleveland.
