Dan Mitchell Asks Of American Senator Kent Conrad 'Is He a Clown, Hack, or Demagogue?'

Mitchell, A Subtly, Insightful And Balanced Writer Saves Readers Considerable Time By Answering His Own, Apparently Not Rhetorical Question In The First Line Of His 500 Word Article:

"Actually, the answer is all of the above."

This Evil Clown thanks Mitchell for saving me from having to actually read his article, learn anything meaningful or wade through his one sided rhetoric.

Litotes The Clown does not know anything about this so called 'Senator Kent Conrad' but will take Dan Mitchell at his word. Dan always tells me the truth, he told me so.

After all, Dan Mitchell calls himself 'a top expert on tax reform and supply-side tax policy'; how could he not tell the truth about himself or the 30 year old cutting edge tax policy thinking of 1980?

Prior to joining the Cato Institute (a libertarian fish tank not to be confused with the Kato Kaelin Institute), Mitchell was a senior fellow with The Heritage Foundation (the Heritage's stated mission is to "formulate and promote conservative public policies"; what could be more transparent than that?) (also not to be confused with the Heritage Front).

He also served on the 1988 Bush/Quayle (remember Quayle?) transition team and was Director of Tax and Budget Policy for Citizens for a Sound Economy; this organization was so popular that they signed up members without their knowledge or consent before disbanding due to lack of interest in 2004.

There is a word for people like Dan Mitchell and evil clowns know it.

That word is 'Hero'.

Not because of his long and blithe relationship with reality, ethics, morality and the truth, but because of his boldness in argumentum ad hominem in the title of his article, "Clown, Hack, or Demagogue".

That and he used the word "clown" as if it were a bad thing.

    Clown Zeroes In On Theories Of Emotional Twistedness

    My Bad ?!? The Worst Day Of My Life

    My head is overloaded
    Cats claw at my skin
    I'm dehydrated
    All the flags are waving, sirens fill the din
    And I've got the shakes again

    Through a boozy fog I see
    It's emotions that are killing me
    A forgotten whisper on my lips
    Make it stop
    Let me out

    I'm standing on the corner with a balloon dog in my hand
    Hands shake the feeling from my finger tips
    Being and nothingness spiral crazily
    The gun's still warm and the fear comes on
    What is life but a reprieve from death?

    Why I Am An Evil Clown And You Could Be Too, 171- 180

    Bad Apples Theory Exposed As So Much Compost

    Remove your mask and/or makeup and change into Walmart clothes A.S.A.P. subsequent to a manifestation, so that you can't be easily identified with any 'action' that may be with any incident that may be contrary to your ongoing operational status.

    Make an effort to act like a normal person, but don't over do the gentleman/lady routine too much, you'll stick out like a missionary in a bad neighbourhood

    171. Soulful self mutilation

    172. Dare not offend mighty Zeus

    173. In the ant farm flipping the bird outward

    174. Despite all my rage I am still just ready to cave

    175. 2w0 0bscur3 4 u

    176. Smells like desperation

    177. Intolerance is my anti-drug

    178. Gosh Darn Epigenetics! http://www1.qiagen.com/Applications/Epigenetics/Default.aspx?gaw=epig

    179. Odious Tasks create strange past-times

    180. The things I'll do for money, you'll never understand

    The very definition of a great punchline:

    ...the evaluation of the quality of jokes is a realistic goal for the linguistic analysis of humor, albeit a distant one that will require extensive research (Attardo 1994: 215).

    Evil Clown Dissected By Academia To Highlight Personality Deficiencies To Her Friends

    Science Firmly Proves Academic Isn’t Getting The Point

    Recent studies on clown psychology have introduced innovative models of identity configuration progression and open new insights into how clowns contract their identity(ies).

    Early modal bonding is the foundation of (and on) emotional and cognitive intersubjectivity (see: http://attachment.edu.ar/intersubjectivity.html). Stiff individuation and subsequent sublimation of the self, first in clown-academic confrontation and then in post identity formation are the basis of theoretical social+-ego integration.

    It is rightly acknowledged that clown–academic bonding lubricates mutual realization of the subjectivity of the other. However, it is presumptuous to presume that the ideation of the process would be greater relatedness and/or identity penetration because of the relationship.

    Indeed, it is healthy and natural that turgid individuation must itself rupture the close and intense clown–academic liaison.

    Variance of motion in the instance (and the subtext) of clown–academic conflict is the realization and hyperextension of a deep-seated contempt which must burst the rigid confines and firm boundaries of the relationship or shatter the self.

    These theories aid in conceptualizing the discrepancies noted by progressive theorists which have traditionally been seen as parities.

    Less sophisticated models of attachment have dumped these aspects of the academic’s experience like so much cheap used tissue.

    Because of the nature of the participants and some clowns’ reputation for mirth, merrymaking and affable nature, it is necessary to dispel bigoted notions about academics’ inability to express humour, appreciate humour or deliver a punchline.

    It has been correctly noted:

    …that [academics] who …share their humor, generally do not use the [clown] forms of humor …because they simply are not the best tool to facilitate their communication goals... [T]he "one-two punch line" form of most traditional [clowning intercourse] simply doesn't appeal to most [academics]…

    - Women Rarely Prefer the Quickie. L. Naranjo-Huebl. Paraphrased from FPS:WHMBCR. Accessed 2005-11-26. http://www.fnsa.org/v1n4/huebl1.html

    Which reminds me of a joke I heard recently:

    Two mathematicians are studying a convergent series.

    The first one says: "Do you realize that the series converges even when all the terms are made positive?"

    The second one asks: "Are you sure?"

    "Absolutely!"

    quod erat demonstrandum

    T. Dolby, 1988. Aliens Ate My Buick: Airhead. Access 2005-11-27. http://www.thomasdolby.com/reference/lyrics_aliens.html

    Close and careful scrutiny of previous studies reveal grave mechanical deficiencies in clowns’ masculinist and androcentric values. Frequently a clown’s inadequacy is sheathed as humour, namely: pranks, insults, put downs, practical jokes, riffs, rants and brief tongue lashings.

    Yet, upon reflection, it becomes quickly all too obvious that their nature, despite claims to the contrary, is neither supportive nor caring.

    Clowns obviously have a deep-rooted fear based aggression that attenuates the organ of identity, manifesting as the need to humiliate, debase and subjugate others both psychologically and physically. This is often done under the guise of public charm or in extremis during intimate and private communication.

    On top of which, specious anecdotal evidence is often used to ‘prove’ that clowns are funnier than academics, as where we have shown that clowns are not funny, they just think they are.

    But what I really want to know is why the evil clown doesn’t call?

    Contemporary Audience Appauled At Clownish Figure

    The Appearance Of Perception: Echoes In A Cube Farm

    Evil Clown Drawing Medium: Office issue green pen on standard printer paper

    In this original graphic art the artist has skillfully adapted their unnatural surroundings and appropriated material from the corporate culture. This petty subversion may be interpreted as inversion of the formulaic hierarchy of capitalist taxonomy.

    This contemporary 'at hand' exploration of graphic media and visual relationships cleverly under-renders the tonal values and spacial grounding of the subject to great effect. One can feel the numbed horror of these sparse sketchy lines.

    The overall emotional impact is as restrained as the muted logic of accident victims in shock. Through the tunnel of the thousand yard stare we see ourselves: Not seething with rage. Not the slave owners of destiny. We are hillbillies at the mall - He's got a real pretty mouth on him, don't he?

    Insurgent Rebel Clown Army (CIRCA) - Perfectly paradoxical; grotesquely beautiful

    Clownbatants Engage Royal Marines With ‘Divide And Fool’ Tactics

    Evil Clowns Mock Armed Forces Recruiting


    Clumsily cribbed and butchered from:
    Sorry. The army isn't recruiting today. Its closed.
    A very large and extremely un-amused commando from the Royal Marines tried to throw us out of the [recruiting] centre with the help of a growing number of police officers. But it's hard to move a rebel clown, they don't resist in a conventional sense, but tend to slip out of the clutches of authority like wobbly jelly and distract them from their duties with loud gaffaws and stinging mockery.

    The more our pleas to join the army fell on deaf ears:
    "Please teach us how to liberate people!"
    "Where are the application forms? "
    "Why can't we have really really big guns like yours?"

    The more chaotic the scene in the recruitment office became. Very long sausage ballons started screaming across the space sounding like ammunition about to explode, sherbert filled toy aeroplanes did manic loop the loops over the RAF desks, one clown crawled around the floor polishing soldiers boots with his feather duster while another read out loud the latest communique from CIRCA … which detailed the absurdity of the so called "hand-over" of power in Iraq and announced the occupation of Leeds by CIRCA and the establishment of the Clown Provisional Authority.

    Spot the clown

    At one point a very long tape measure appeared and the clowns set up a competition to find the tallest policeman and the smallest protester, an exercise that ended with the clowns getting completely tangled in the tape and falling over.

    Whenever the very slick mountain bike cops passed by, clowns would idolize their "cool" lycra shorts, sunglasses and shiny new bikes, causing the police on foot to smile and thus teasing out some of the internal tensions of the force - "divide and fool" being one of CIRCA's key strategies to rebel against the forces of coercive power!

    CIRCA's combatants don't pretend to be clowns, they are clowns, real clowns.

    Clowns navigate the trackless ether like void engineers under the scrutiny of the unblinking eye:

    The first lie of insurgency is that it is everywhere and nowhere
    They give resistance a funny face
    Improvisation is insurgency
    They do not want to change 'the' world, but 'their' world
    Evil Clowns will always desert and disobey those who abuse and accumulate power
    Because nothing undermines authority like holding it up to ridicule
    Because fools are both fearsome and innocent
    Because a clown can survive everything and get away with anything.

    Run away from the circus: Join the forces of the clandestine insurgent rebel clown army!

    Evil Clowns are No Accidnets

    How did we get here? Some propose evolution, creationism, intelligent design and aliens. Evil Evil Clowns have their own ideas:

    Evilution (n):

    A general name for the history of the steps by which Evil has acquired the morphological, social, and metaphysical characters which distinguish it; a gradual unfolding of successive phases of growth or development.

    That theory of generation which supposes the germ to pre["e]xist in the parent, and its parts to be developed, but not actually formed, by the procreative act; Evil doesn’t love you, but it will fuck with you.

    That series of changes under natural law which involves continuous progress from the homogeneous to the heterogeneous in structure, from the single and simple to the diverse and manifold in quality or function, i.e.: from good to Evil; a process of development in which Evil becomes more and more complex by the differentiation of its parts, a continuous and progressive change according to certain laws and by means of resident forces; a process in which something passes by degrees to a more advanced or mature stage; [syn: development]; The sequence of events involved in the evolutionary development of Evil.

    Having or exhibiting qualities tending to greater and greater injury and mischief; having a nature or properties which tend to badness; being morally corrupt/bad or wrong; wickedness; mischievous; not good; worthless or deleterious; multinational corporatism; International Monetary Fund/policy; General Agreement on Trade and Tariffs; political apathy; incivility; intolerance, racism; wrong; vicious; as, evil conduct, thoughts, heart, words; producing or threatening sorrow, distress, injury, or calamity; unpropitious; calamitous; an evil force, power, or personification; something that is a cause or source of suffering, injury, or destruction: the social evils of poverty and injustice; anything which impairs the happiness of a being or deprives a being of any good; anything which causes suffering of any kind to sentient beings; injury; mischief; harm; -- opposed to good; as, Evil Clowns, evil tidings; evil arrows; evil days; an evil tyrant; causing ruin, injury, or pain; harmful; anger or spite; malicious and the like [See: Seven Delicious Sins]. Syn: Mischievous; pernicious; injurious; hurtful; destructive; wicked; sinful; bad; corrupt; perverse; wrong; vicious; calamitous.

    The process is by some mistakenly limited to organic beings; by others it is applied to the inorganic, the psychical and the metaphysical. It is also applied to explain the existence and growth of institutions, manners, language, civilization, and every product of human activity [see politics]. The agencies and laws of the process are variously explained by different philosophers.

    The ultimate and logical conclusion of universal processes and entropy: A good tree can not bring forth evil fruit. --Matt. vii. 18; the inevitable victory of dark forces over the light; The evil one, the Devil; Satan the Day of Reckoning.

    The tendency for humans to contribute to the evolution of Evil:

    Ah, what a sign it is of evil life, When death's approach is seen so terrible.
    - Shak.

    Evils which our own misdeeds have wrought.
    - Milton.

    The evil that men do lives after them.
    -Shak.

    …But I am in
    So far in blood that sin will pluck on sin:
    Tear-falling pity dwells not in this eye.
    - Shakespeare, Richard III, act IV, SCENE II.

    The heart of the sons of men is full of evil.
    -Eccl. ix. 3.

    He [Edward the Confessor] was the first that touched for the evil.
    -Addison.

    "For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murder, thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lewdness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness. All these evil things come from within and defile a man."
    -Mark 7:21

    “I believe that all government is evil, in that all government must necessarily make war upon liberty...”
    -Mencken's Creed

    There is an evil tendency underlying all our technology - the tendency to do what is reasonable even when it isn't any good.
    -Robert Pirsig, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance

    Evil will always triumph over good, because good is DUMB.
    -Dark Helmet, Space Balls (movie)

    It is a sin to believe evil of others, but seldom a mistake.
