Sometimes You Feel Like A Nut
It takes some moxie to accuse Glenn Beck of suppressing the FEMA camp ‘story,’ but RenewAmerica, like a pizzeria specializing in crazy pies, delivers:
Why are internment camps being built?
By Chuck Baldwin
The Internet is abuzz with news about the construction of internment camps all across America.
The Internet is also ‘abuzz’ with LOLcats and Kenyan birth certificates, but who’s counting?
Of course, ‘mainstream’ media outlets refuse to touch the subject; or if they do, they pooh-pooh the story; they do what Glenn Beck recently did: try to debunk the story as fallacious and impugn people who speak of it as ‘conspiracy nuts.’ The fact that the Becks, Hannitys, Limbaughs, and O’Reillys of the media circus refuse to deal with the construction of large numbers of internment camps does not make them disappear, however.
Yes, if only it were that easy to make Beck, Hannity, Limbaugh and O’Reilly disappear … alas.
For starters, all anyone need do to begin a serious investigation of the subject of internment camps is Google the phrase ‘FEMA Camps.’ There is more than enough evidence in that search engine alone to keep one busy with some in-depth private investigation of the subject for quite a while.
Also, try ‘WTC 7’ and ‘contrails.’ Speaking of the latter …
Just a few weeks ago, I was aboard a cross-country flight when the passenger I was sitting next to (a total stranger) asked me to take a look out the window. He asked, ‘Do those look like internment camps to you?’ I was astonished that the man (1) would even know to notice such a potentiality, and (2) would be so bold as to ask such a question of a total stranger. I must say, I was extremely happy to make his acquaintance.
Especially since it happened outside of group.
We were flying over Colorado, over extreme wilderness terrain, and, yes, right in the middle of nowhere, the buildings and surrounding features that I saw sure looked like internment camps to me. Of course, flying at over 30,000 feet in the sky makes it difficult for any kind of detailed analysis to take place; that is for sure.
Also, it was like they were building the internment camps for ant-sized people, which could mean the government has developed a shrinking ray to further oppress us.
Then, a friend recently brought this URL to my attention:
http://www.nationalguard.com/careers/mos/description.php?mos_code=31E
This is an advertisement by the National Guard promoting the Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) of “Internment/Resettlement Specialist.” Question: why does the National Guard need to recruit Internment/Resettlement Specialists? What do they know that we should know?
Other than that we are currently engaged in two hot wars, probably nothing.
Some suggest that these facilities are being prepared for large numbers of illegal immigrants.
Starting to feel relieved … breath coming easier … anger subsiding …
This seems extremely doubtful, however …
Doh!
To think that the federal government intends to place thousands of illegal aliens in internment camps borders on lunacy.
Because if they did, who would mow their lawns and irony their shirts?
Then, of course, there are those who continue to deny that these internment camps exist at all. But then, were there not thousands of Germans who denied the existence of concentration camps during World War II? These types of people would refuse to believe the sun came up in the east if the government spinmeisters told them it didn’t.
Damn you, Galileo, damn you to hell!
That our federal government is building large numbers of ‘holding areas’ or internment camps seems to be an established fact. The only questions that remain are ‘Why?’ and ‘For whom?’
At this point, the imagination can take us anywhere …
Oh, and it will, Chuck Baldwin … it will.
… but it is not a little disconcerting when the same federal government that is building these internment camps begins categorizing Christians, conservatives, people who support the Second Amendment, people who oppose abortion and homosexual marriage, people who oppose the North American Union and the New World Order, people who oppose the United Nations and illegal immigration, and people who voted for Ron Paul or Chuck Baldwin as ‘extremists,’ or ‘potential dangerous militia members.’
First they came for the Constitution Party voters, but I was not a rounding error, etc.
Yeah, when people who voted for Ron Paul stop being allowed to carry guns to “Town Hall” meetings, I’ll breathe a lot easier.
And BTW also – “irony their shirts”?
Ohlord.
Do the words “Guantanamo Bay closing” mean nothing to these idjits? That sure would explain the National Guard ad. After all, if these folks (to quote Bush) are going to be held in civilian prisons, posse comitatus would be invoked and the Army could not provide troops.
This “stranger” that Chuckie coincidentally sat next to on a plane who pointed out “internment camps”…assuming he’s real…did he have antennae or a tin-foil wardrobe?
POOH-POOH!
And BTW also – “irony their shirts”?
YOU (of all people!) have never seen that before???
I can’t imagine it’s original with DA
Oops. Wrong linky dink
He doesn’t mention that the stranger next told him that there was a man…on…the wingoftheplane.
So it’s kind of like “Irony my shirts, libs!”?
“Because if they did, who would mow their lawns and irony their shirts?”
“Irony.” I see what you did there.
Google the phrase ‘FEMA Camps.’ There is more than enough evidence in that search engine alone to keep one busy with some in-depth private investigation of the subject for quite a while.
Admittedly it’s all links to wingnuts and Alex Jones, but as long as idiots like Chuckles can be kept off the street chasing their own tails I’m perfectly happy.
I understand how Baldwin feels about interment camps: incredulity that such a thing could be built in the U.S., fear for our country if it continues, horror at the conditions inside, anger about how it represents the breakdown of constitutional law.
It’s how I feel about Texas.
He doesn’t mention that the stranger next told him that there was a man…on…the wingoftheplane.
Probably some illegal trying to irony his shirts.
Teh giant empty prisons built by DHS are purportedly for illegal messicans.
engage in security theater at the drop of a hat? No, they would never do anything like that.
People voted for Chuck Baldwin? I have learned something new today.
Also, in addition as well – constantly amazed by the number of right-wingers who hear the word extremist or the phrase potential[ly] dangerous militia members and immediately think that must mean me.

I picked up on that as well, and began to wonder if maybe repealing the Second Amendment might not be a bad idea after all.

I like how something that “Looks like” an “Internment camp” from 30,000 feet becomes, by the end of the article, an established fact.
But Somerby says we shouldn’t call them wingnuts, because it makes them angrier. So when one of them shoots somebody again, it will, of course, be YOUR FAULT!!!
That our federal government is building large numbers of ‘holding areas’ or internment camps seems to be an established fact.
Established facts don’t “seem,” silly!
And: using historical content to justify a crazy theory ain’t how it works. Using that logic, I could say that a remake of Casablanca starring Lindsay Lohan and Carrot Top would be a hit because, look at how successful the first one was!
wait, one of the Baldwin Brothers DIDN’T go into acting?
Whew.
“who would mow their lawns and irony their shirts?”
Of course, irony is lost on wingtards. Therefore, when you see people walking around in un-ironed shirts, you can reasonably assume that such a person is a wingtard.
D.A., as usual, is a magnificent bastard.
I could swear I remember the dreaded FEMA camps got started because Bush and Cheney requested them…
If no left-wing protesters are gathered outside the gates of a bricks’n’mortar SOA-type thingy, because no one knows precisely where the FEMA camps are, it seems to be an established fact that these places are only visible to those who have consumed vast amounts of hallucinogens and/or meth. Which seems to cast some doubt on the whole “established fact” thing.

Why do I suspect that if he went back there, to rural Colorado, and looked at them at ground level, they’d pretty much look like a ranch?
Of course, the cows and horses they keep there are only to lull you into a false sense of security. After that, they hit you with the black helicopters and the Merovingian kings and the birth certificates.
These FEMA camps are a lot like Bigfoot – all these people are sure they exist, but no one can show an example of one. Perhaps they’re where your plane flies over and to the north, east, and west somewhat.
but not to the south, Jennifer?
The FEMA camps are actually rest-stops along the NAFTA Superhighway from Mexico to Canada.
We were flying over Colorado
So they flew over Florence.
These FEMA camps are a lot like Bigfoot – all these people are sure they exist, but no one can show an example of one.
I dare you to take the Chuck Baldwin Google search challenge. Type in “Bigfoot” and do an image search. How many examples do you see?
but not to the south, Jennifer?
In the South, they’re called “trailer parks”.
Also, googling “chuck baldwin idiot” returns over 336,000 hits, proving conclusively that he is, indeed, an idiot.
“Chuck Baldwin goat blower” returns 5,200 hits. Mickey Kaus better watch out! This is an up-and-coming superstar in the ranks of Professional Goat Blowers!

He shoots! He SCORES!
On topic, sort of. I remember seeing lots of man-made enclosures from 37,000 feet while hopping from elitist coast to elitist coast. A lot of the stuff out in the middle of nowhere is military, most notably ammunition storage facilities. Spose they could look like Camp Whackaloon from up in the jet stream. After your fifth vodka/rocks, perhaps.
He asked, ‘Do those look like internment camps to you?’ […] I must say, I was extremely happy to make his acquaintance.
So I was having this imagined conversation in my head, and the other guy said exactly what I would hope he might say! What are the chances? It was such a good feeling that I started believing that he was real and that I actually met him.
After your fifth vodka/rocks, perhaps.
Well, thank you NotLooch. Don’t mind if I do.
humm, why is it I think Chuckie would be all in favor of those “camps” if they were meant for, uh, to pick a few groups at random, illegal immigrants, legal immigrants, gays, union-organizers, Kucinich voters, blacks, etc, etc…

We call them “houses” or sometimes “homes” and occasionally “hotels”.

Pardon me. I had not deduced your attitude towards your tenants.
If the camps were already under construction/completed, wouldn’t that mean that Bush was building them? Or do only sneaky conspiracies have the ability to build facilities ahead of schedule?
[..] I must say, I was extremely happy to make his acquaintance.[/i]
I am Jack’s single-serving rhetorical convenience. This fellow, he was a soap salesman, perhaps?
I’ve been working on a 24 unit apartment building/ abbatoir since about the time Obama took the oath. It’s not even under construction yet, let alone ready for occupancy.
But the Gov is so incapable of doing ANYTHING better than the private sector, they have built facilities for thousands faster. oooooohhhhh-kay.
Or do only sneaky conspiracies have the ability to build facilities ahead of schedule?
Why not? 48 years ago, a Kenyan whore travelled to Hawaii to secretly plant a birth notice in two papers….

Wheel of Morality, tell us what the lesson today is:
Zombies move more slowly than the federal bureaucracy.
Why are internment camps being built?
Duh. Like where else ya gonna keep the grandfolks awaiting death panel review and subsequent processing into new nutritious food products for the Islamo/Mexican reconquistas? Amateur.
Zombies move more slowly than the federal bureaucracy.
keep telling yourself that.
NOM NOM NOM.
We were flying over Colorado, over extreme wilderness terrain, and, yes, right in the middle of nowhere, the buildings and surrounding features that I saw sure looked like internment camps to me.
Or perhaps like Boy Scout camps?
Doh! [/Homer]
Well, thank you NotLooch. Don’t mind if I do.
My pleasure. A bit of lemon peel?
We call them “houses” or sometimes “homes” and occasionally “hotels”.
Yes, yes we do.
I was thinking more of the huge, sprawling open sites with roads leading to the occasional structure. Being somewhat of a map nerd, I would bring atlases on the plane to try and identify landmarks. Maps would show military installations. (Grabs road atlas). Utah has some, Nevada a whole bunch. Firing ranges, that kind of stuff. Easily converted into internment camps, if you follow my drift. Enclosed spaces, lots of sub-par humans. Zombie heaven, I would imagine.
I like how he establishes himself on the ethics of internment camps.
“It’d be one thing if it were for those filthy disgusting illegal immigrants! Then we’d be in full support of the idea, and indeed, we would volunteer at the chance to become the camp guards! But I suspect, as a paranoid may, that this is actually to imprison me!”
Besides which, y’know if we actually set up a camp, the lot of them would war with one another over who gets to be the sonderkommandos.
IIRC, the sign over one of the Nazi death camps said (in German, obviously) “The work shall set you free.”
What should the gate at these new internment camps display?
“Free ice cream on Fridays?”
“Stupid is as stupid does?”
“Tell it to the lamppost?”
“Wet clean-up in aisle nine?”
“All your base are belong to us?”
Or perhaps like Boy Scout camps?
The razor wire is to help them learn how to shave.
One time I got a C on a paper I wrote about the Crusades. Apparently my liberal teacher thought I should have used more than one source. But this source had so many volumes about the Crusades, and all of the books gave such beautiful, vivid details about the wonderful spices and the trouncing of the caliphate and what have you. With that wealth of information, why should I bother to shop around?
But by the time I got to eighth grade, I realized my mistake. And this was before teh googlez!
Why do I suspect that if he went back there, to rural Colorado, and looked at them at ground level, they’d pretty much look like a ranch?
No kidding, who sees those big green circles and squares, dotted with silos and barns, and first thinks “detention camps” instead of “farms”?
Oh, and also, I would totally have a sarcasm if someone would irony my shirts for me.
IIRC, the sign over one of the Nazi death camps said (in German, obviously) “The work shall set you free.”

Albeit mit Fries.
We can tell them it means “work shall set you free”, because how would they know?
Sorry. It’s good wingnut paranoia, but it’s not GREAT wingnut paranoia.
Not until the essential phrase “Isn’t it interesting….” appears.
Keep trying, Chuck.
First they came for “Obama is a communist” and I said nothing, because they call every democrat a communist.
Then they came for “Obama is not an American” and I said nothing, because he is only partially white, and I know that this confuses people.
Then they came for “Obama will kill your grandmother” and I said, “fuck yeah, and round your white ass up for re-education camp, honky!”
Then they came for “Obama will put us in re-education camps” and there was nothing left to say.
What should the gate at these new internment camps display?
“This is central to my point!”
No kidding, who sees those big green circles and squares, dotted with silos and barns, and first thinks “detention camps” instead of “farms”?
Really?
Damn, and here I thought flyover country was one big Chutes and Ladders gameboard!
What should the gate at these new internment camps display?
“This way to the Egress.”
Too old-school?
“LOL PWNED LOL”
“This way to the Egress.”
Hee.
The camps sprung up during the reign of BushCo thugs and I believe it was built by Halliburton/KBR if I recall correctly that was awarded the construction contracts meaning that internees would be in constant danger of being electrocuted as several dead US military personnnel in Iraq would attest to (that is if they were not dead).
This is especially likely as the courts found that Halliburton/KBR’s shoddy construction practices and lack of oversight of the subcontractors (as well as failure to respond to complaints/warnings of faulty wiring by those who had already been shocked or seen the dangerously exposed wiring) was not a contributing factor in the deaths of said personnel (so I guess it was what? Their negligence for trusting Halliburton’s work? Boy, were *they* dumbasses!)
It’s Dick Cheney’s most fevered wet dream come true – A contractor’s license to kill!
To think that the federal government intends to place thousands of illegal aliens in internment camps borders on lunacy.
But to think that the federal government intends to place thousands of neo-con, born again rightwingers in the same camps is totally sane and logical?
What should the gate at these new internment camps display?
“FREE KIDDIE PORN! TODAY ONLY! HALF OFF IF YOU’RE REPUBLICAN!”
Albeit mit Fries.
I had that for lunch today.
Funny, wingnuts never complained about the prison-industrial complex before. I seem to recall that they always supported that sort of thing when it was poor dopers and inner city no-hopers who were incarcerated disproportionately.
There’s all sort of weird shit you see from 30,00ft up. I always pick a windows seat when I fly, I’m always looking down trying to figure out what weird looking thing X is. I’ve seen stuff that you could twist into “interment camps” if you wanted to, of course 99.9% of the time there is a rational explanation for what you’re looking at. I’ve even google-earthed/mapped something later on trying to find out what it was with a fair degree of success. Of course there is that 0.1% of stuff that does cause one to wonder… I do believe that buried in some file cabinet somewhere are a pretty decent set of plans to erect “camps” of one flavor or another – I’d be kind of pissed if our government did not have contignecy plans for that along with plans for a whole host of wild & crazy stuff, thats part of their job.
Never trust anyone who does not use contractions.
Wait, there’s another crazy Baldwin Brother? Clearly, this is Alec’s fault for not smothering them when he was still the biggest kid.
“Of course, flying at over 30,000 feet in the sky makes it difficult for any kind of detailed analysis to take place; that is for sure.”
No, I know a some things about airplanes. With the naked eye, through a less-then-high-quality window, at a steep angle, you’re not going to see SHIT at 30,000 feet.
How does one distinguish a secret death camp from, say, a trailor park, or an RV dealership, anyways? Or a busy national park / campground?
And how come the government has the dark, far reach tendrils to keep a massive conspiracy covered up, but didn’t bother to think that maybe we should build our death camps in places that are NOT major airliner routes?
I was astonished that the man (1) would even know to notice such a potentiality, and (2) would be so bold as to ask such a question of a total stranger. I must say, I was extremely happy to make his acquaintance.
So I blew him in the bathroom.
Using that logic, I could say that a remake of Casablanca starring Lindsay Lohan and Carrot Top would be a hit because, look at how successful the first one was!
Give Pauly Shore the Bogart role and Carrot Top the Claude Raines one, and I’m so there!
Pryme, we’ll pay double for tickets to the premiere if Lindsay Lohan plays Rick opposite Carrot Top as Ilsa.
And for the top of the gate, one might try “When I Am Empty, Please Dispose of Me Properly.” (Seen it on the missus’s cup at the burger joint yesterday, want it on my tombstone.)
Actually, Chuck Baldwin happened across a pre-broadcast video of last night’s Leverage and didn’t realize that 1) the show was not a documentary and 2) the whole “internment camp” story was part of the con
What scares me most is that this guy can write.
For starters, all anyone need do to begin a serious investigation of the subject of teenage sexuality is Google the phrase ‘Horny Schoolgirls.’ There is more than enough evidence in that search engine alone to keep one busy with some in-depth private investigation of the subject for quite a while.
