I don't exactly find it shocking that the gop-er party is responsible for the death of a beloved, venerable old lion (what bad thing occurs inside or outside the U.S. that gop-ers are not responsible for?). However, I do think that the Hill.com and other media outlets are not following through on this angle nearly far enough and, in the process, are largely giving the gop-ers a free pass on Cecil. To wit:
- Mitt Romney, in and of himself, is only gonna provide so much traction for the cause, since he's not running for president this time around. We need some further linkage, some additional guilt by vague association, using Romney as our very convenient connector...
- For example, gop-er frontrunner Donald Trump has previously had sit-down meetings with Romney. That's very clear linkage to the Murdering Dentist, Walter James Palmer (Palmer to Romney to Trump, like an old classic MLB double play combination or something). Why is no one yet calling Trump a lion killer?
- gop-er fat man Chris Christie is basically from the same state as Romney (do most stupid Americans even differentiate between New Jersey and Massachusetts?). So why is that fat fuck not getting any blame for Cecil?
- gop-er's token black man candidate, Ben Carson, once sneezed on a Fox News program, in the process making a sound that I could've sworn sounded like he was saying, "Romney." How come that Uncle Tom ain't being taken behind the woodshed over Cecil?
- "Jeb" Bush has frequently been compared to Romney by the gop-ers' right-winger base, which views the Jebber as being little different from the mealy-mouthed, stand-for-nothing, establishment fat-cat Romney. So yet again, we have a gop-er candidate directly connected to Cecil's killing.
- Additional gop-er candidate Scott Walker has been excoriated for his war on unions in his native Wisconsin, while Romney once entered into a marital union with an elitist, white, horse-riding equestrian bitch named Ann. That's right: Scott Walker, lion killer.
Need I go any farther? We have this wonderful Kevin Bacon-like Romney connector to a high-profile killing, but a media lacking the imagination to take this story as far as it needs to go for the cause. They sure as shit ain't populatin' them journalism schools like they used to!
