Julia Louis-Dreyfus We The People Tattoo Reveals A Lot

By Douglas V. Gibbs

Julia Louis-Dreyfus is on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine, with a big you-know-what eating grin, and a bigger tattoo on her back.  The temporary ink holds a political message, because despite what the media says, the TEA Party lives rent-free inside every liberal's head.  The artwork on Julia's back is an image of the United States Constitution, with the "We the People" revealed at the top in plain sight, and then at the bottom the large, iconic signature of John Hancock.  The problem is Hancock signed the Declaration of Independence, not the Constitution.

The finger pointing regarding whose fault it is looks like a laser security system in a spy movie, with the blue lines of blame shooting in all directions.  The blame-game is not serious, for it's not really a big deal to these folks.  It's just the Constitution, after all.  No big deal.  It has become a big joke. . . the John Hancock mistake, I mean.

The National Constitution Center in Philadelphia mocked the flub by tweeting a photo of the cover alongside such Founding Fathers as George Washington and Benjamin Franklin in Signers' Hall with the words, "Thanks for the shoutout but no Hancock here."

Rolling Stone spokeswoman Melissa Bruno said the Declaration of Independence is on the other side of Louis-Dreyfus' body, but they couldn't fit in the signatures.

When you open the magazine, more Founding Father merriment graces the pages of the rock-and-roll periodical, one with a man in a colonial wig tattooing Hancock's signature above the bare bottom of the Seinfeld actress, "I'm a perfectionist in my work," Louis-Dreyfus notes in the magazine's cover story. "I think I might drive people nuts. I don't ask them, because I don't need that (expletive) on top of how I'm feeling."

A perfectionist who can't even get the bugs worked out on who signed what historical document.

The error, and the nonchalant attitude regarding the misplacement of John Hancock's famous signature, goes way beyond "the veepee did it" excuse.  This whole ordeal explains a lot.  The liberal left tells you exactly where they stand, what they think, and how they expect you to think about them in every move they make.  Sometimes, the truth is not so glaringly clear as it is in this case, but the truth is always exposed, if you know how to look at it.

On the surface, the whole point of the photo shoot and article in Rolling Stone was to help Julia promote her new HBO show "VEEP," while toying with the show's connection to politics by calling her the "First Lady of Comedy."  She plays the Vice President of the United States on the new program.  Quite a boost from the role of being the side-kick of a guy we laugh at, like on the Seinfeld show.

Oh, wait. . . 

Julia is not shy about letting people know she's a "100%" Obama supporter.  She's an environmentalist that opposed the Keystone Pipeline.  She is, in a word, typically "Hollywood."

Which brings us back to the signature mistake on her lower back.

The reason the old saying dictates that we shouldn't talk about Religion and Politics is because people get into heated debates, and the liberal left has been trying to teach us that confrontation, of any kind, is bad.

Peace, Love, Dope, man!

Screw their politically correct nonsense.

The entertainment industry, like the schools, used to be a completely different animal.  The education system used to be about teaching our children how to think.  Now, the public school system is geared towards teaching our children "what" to think.  The entertainment industry used to be about entertaining us, but now it is about . . . wait for it. . . teaching us "what" to think -- even if they know nothing about the topic.

The reason for the mistake on Julia's tattoo could very well be because the leftists don't understand, or care about understanding or knowing, anything about the founding of this nation.  It's like when then Senator Joe Biden asked Clarence Thomas during his Supreme Court Justice confirmation hearing about the basis that Thomas would use regarding his rulings, and Thomas said, "Natural law."  Biden called it ridiculous, and something that nobody has ever heard of.  After Thomas explained to Biden what natural law is, he refrained from telling the Senator that natural law is laid out in the very first paragraph of the Declaration of Independence, for fear of embarrassing the veteran politician.

I don't think that John Hancock's signature was under the Constitution on Julia's back because there was no room under the Declaration, or that it was just a silly little error.  I think these leftists are so out of touch with the reality of the founding of this nation, knowing what they know based on deconstructionist talking points, and convinced they "do" know and therefore didn't even bother to research the truth, that they really don't know the true details of American History.  These people, when they made the fake tattoo on Julia's back, truly believed that Hancock was a signer of the Constitution, and that the iconic signature came from that document.  What does it matter? - to draw from Hillary Clinton's remark regarding the death of four Americans at Benghazi.  That is their attitude.  What does it matter?  Declaration, Constitution. . . it's all the same.  Just a bunch of old writings by a bunch of old white racists.

But, though they know very little about the founding of America, and they really don't care to learn anything more about it, they have realized they must do what they do when they act.  Pretend.  They must pretend the Constitution is important to them.  They must pretend they are patriotic.  They must pretend they care about this nation as founded.  Even if they don't understand it, or care to understand it, they must pretend to be otherwise.

Despite all of the leftist claims that the TEA Party is dead, and that conservatives are the minority, believe me when I tell you a large number of the influential people in the leftist political camp understands they are the minority, and the TEA Party is as strong as ever.  So, like good free market capitalists that claim they hate free market capitalism, they must capitalize on it.  They must do what they can to infiltrate, influence, and make a few bucks, by pretending they give a flying crap about the American Cause.  After all, their biggest Achilles Heal is what they think people think of them. Popularity is everything.  They want you to like them, as they drive the knife deep into the back of American Exceptionalism.

The Hancock mistake is likely because they don't know, and to cover their ignorance, they make light of it, throw a little profanity around, and then do as leftists always do, start pointing fingers.

Fine, whatever.  It is comedy, to be honest, watching these people try to fool us into believing their garbage, when in reality they are telegraphing to us exactly who they really are, and what they are really about.

Then again, Rolling Stone may have screwed the Hancock signature thing up on purpose, knowing that people in the know would make a fuss, and get everyone talking about their magazine.  Helluva marketing ploy, if that was the truth.
