MEET RUPRECHT    

If anyone has had the pleasure of seeing the hilarious SteveMartin/Michael Caine movie "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels," there is a segment of the movie where Michael Caine, as the penultimate "faux royal rico suave," is attempting to swindle millions of dollars from a naive American heiress through marriage.

At one point during the engagement the heiress is surreptitiously introduced to her new brother-in-law, Ruprecht. Out of necessity Ruprecht, played by Steve Martin, is kept locked in the basement where he yells and screams, bangs pots like a crazed chimp, and is threatened by Michael Caine, his "brother," with the genital cuffs, a severe, but necessary punishment for psychotic behavior toward his future sister-in-law. The ploy works, and stunned, the heiress politely declines matrimony and Caine gets her engagement cash and favors. Well in this blog, for reasons known only to the Author, I am relegated to the role of Ruprecht, the crazed brother banging pots and yelling and screaming in the "Asylum," constantly being chastised and threatened with the dreaded genital cuffs. So be it. I have been given a forum, and being crazy in a "sane" Liberal world, I feel as if my Asylum is really the only sane place left for me and my legion of fans who have to stomach the constant stream of Liberal excrement that vomits forth from the pro-liberal media 24/7. It may be that the "Asylum" is in reality, the sane place, and everything else - especially the Democratic party, Liberals, the Media, Academia, Hollywood - has gone insane. You decide.
