From Mike Flugennock, naturally:
This one’s a salute to all you surviving Kool-Aid-drinking Obamabots getting ready to soldier on into this year’s Presidential Freak Circus — all you Lefties and Progressives who were willingly, knowingly, happily bamboozled by all the hope’n'change talk four years ago.

I like the little pony with the riot head gear and the pepper spray. That's a nice touch.

"Hey, where's my pony?
I heard we were all gonna get ponies!
C'mon, I didn't vote for this!
Jeez, what a gyp!
I'm so disappointed!"

Wha...?
Sorry, I had to search Google for "bronies" and get caught up on the Bronies meme. It's been five whole minutes now that I've been aware of the "Bronies" meme; actually, this piece was inspired partially by the My Little Pony '80s revivalist meme, and by all the jokes which have been going around for the past three years about the Pwog Obama cultists and how they all thought that when Obama was elected, he was going to give them all ponies.

I know you guys are opposed to voting, but can you make an exception, just once, for Vermin Supreme?
Free ponies!
For everyone!

Doubtless like many here, I am inundated daily with political emails. They beseech me, as a matter of the gravest urgency, to drop a mite into the poor-boxes of sundry Democrats. I am cajoled as well as by organizations, as many-headed as the hydra, coming on as lefty activists but only to unmask themselves as donkaholic shills.
Sometimes I am tempted to reply to them: "It may interest you to know that I had voted for Nader in 2000." I would reveal myself the very serpent, the devil himself, who had despoiled their electoral Eden. I would then expect an ecclesiastical anathema — proceed forever hence upon thy belly, loathsome creature! — followed by expulsion from their mails and a removal from memberships (which I had apparently contracted by signing online petitions).
Would this work, do you think? Probably not. I unsubscribe when I can, but it doesn't always end there. Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in. Though I had strayed unto the barbarous land of Nader, they would welcome me once again, the prodigal voter.

I'm not sure if that'd work or not. I suspect some would expunge you from their lists and run screaming; then again, I'd expect some of them to become apoplectic and lecture you on how you were responsible for Bush becoming President and how you helped Nader "steal" votes from Algore and guilt-tripping you by asking if you'd prefer President Romney or President Gingrich and admonishing you to repent, or some shit.

Bronies! Truly the world is a rich and wonderful place. I want to live to be 1000, just to see how it turns out.

Dear Friends
Whilst under other circumstances these might well be regarded as "bronies", in this context they appear to be a consortium of "cronies" and "dronies".

To the donk-huggers, Ralph Nader's ideas, methods have become unsound... Unsound. They can't directly state what they want you to do. They employ euphemism instead. But I think we know what they want.
