Dumb All Over: Pat Boone – Still an idiot after all these years

aaaboone1.jpgWhy is this guy still around? Only reason I can think is the religious right needs a person not ashamed to make a complete ass out of himself that’s not James Dobson or Tony Perkins. And someone who can still connect with all the clueless fundies who remember the 60′s, I guess. In a ‘must read to be believed’ post, Ed Brayton takes apart a recent WorldNut Daily article by Boone, in which he has an imaginary conversation with Thomas Jefferson, and yep, you guessed, it , Jefferson is appalled by how the Christofascists haven’t been able to take over yet. Aside from Boone’s requisite Godidiocy, like most of his ilk, he shows an astounding historical ignorance, as well. Nothing surprising, because they tend to make up their own history, anyways. There’s too much good stuff to quote, just go over and read it yourself.

In other, equally appalling and shocking news, Boone’s just released an album of R&B classics!

We Are Family – R & B Classics: Hot! New off the press! Get your soul-groove on with and R&B’s greatest artists. A full CD of duets with Pat Boone performing with Smokey Robinson, Earth, Wind and Fire, James Brown and more, singing their all time hits…

That’s even more enraging than any of Boone’s Godidiocy drivel, in my book, considering he’s the whitest guy on the planet. Get your soul-groove on? Should hang the guy up by his tiny balls for that one.
