This week's entry into the saga of Robert Beierle's Creative Insight proves that even in the Happiest Place On Earth, our man Bob can still find a way to be an ignorant, racist curmudgeon. Bob's essay this week starts with a letter from his wife, Dorothy, explaining how Bob surprised her with a trip to Florida and Disney World for Valentine's day. How sweet! Dorothy's bit is the most competently written and least objectionable thing Our Town has ever printed. Too bad it's only a few sentences long.
No sooner does Dorothy's letter end than Bob gets into his usual "creative insights," for lack of a better term. He starts with "the bad" things about Disney: having to be around people of other cultures and nationalities! Apparently, there was a woman in a burka who offended Bob and Dorothy. She smelled bad, like all Muslims. Bob knows, because Bob has been around a lot of Muslims and knows they all smell bad. But he didn't say anything, because he just knew she would charge him with a hate crime, because that's what all Muslims do in Bob's world. The PC liberal media can attack white Christian men all they want, but don't even think about mentioning that the woman in a burka smells bad, HATE CRIME! After all, where is the outrage, Bob wants to know, when Muslims are killing good innocent Christians and Jews? Why aren't THOSE hate crimes? No, really, he wants to know, because he finds that offensive, and I guess FOX News doesn't report on the people who are outraged over Muslim extremists, probably because if they did it would take up all 24 hours leave no time for them to blame Obama or find more ridiculous accusations about Hilary's email.
Then comes the ugly: apparently there was a child running around on one of the lines while his "mama-San and papa-San" just sat there and watched. Now, I don't know why Bob feels the need to point out that the child is Asian or use those derogatory terms to describe his parents, but I don't think that Bob is truly seeing the ugly in this tale. He thinks the ugly is the woman who farts in the child's face when the child tries to squeeze past her. Isn't that just so funny! Personally, I think the ugly is the racist telling the tale, but what do I know?
Finally there's the good. Bob's little black charcoal heart is touched when everyone waiting in line for the Seven Dwarfs ride starts singing "Heigh Ho" together. Wow. Disney World is truly a magical place. Is it any surprise that Bob holds Walt Disney in such high regard? A man who famously worked against unions, hated Jews and Communists, sympathized with the Nazis, and worked so many racist and sexist tropes into his films? That's Bob's kind of entertainment, the kind that reminds minorities to stay in their place and stop insisting on political correctness and fair treatment. The kind that reminds everyone that America is a Christian nation built by white men, for white men, so you can just take your tolerance and go back to Russia you dirty red commie!
