Obama, AIDS and the Planet of the Apes
With the release of the new Planet of the Apes film on DVD it is a good time to revisit the connection between our President and the thinly veiled "message" of the movie.:
There is a very strange series of connections regarding the subtext of the blockbuster Rise of the Planet of the Apes. Steve Sailer convincingly argues that the film is actually metaphor for AIDS.
AIDS was originally spread by a "gay" flight attendant whose transcontinental jaunts spread the disease worldwide instead of allowing it to be isolated to areas like Fire Island or the Castro District in San Francisco.
Oddly, the links all have a simian intersection. I dub this the Lancelot Link with reference to the early 1970's Saturday morning children's series that featured live chimpanzees (Lancelot, voiced by Walter Matthau) acting out James Bond/Cold War era spy skits.
Perhaps it is time to bring back "it is no accident" in a providential sense; it is ironic that James Franco gained Hollywood gravitas as a direct consequence of his willingness to portray a homosexual partner of Harvey Milk in Sean Penn's Academy Award winning Milk.
Prior to his role in Milk, Franco had been a sort of poor man's Heath Ledger (who also gained respect for playing a homosexual in Brokeback Mountain) and a low-level comedic actor usually cast as a pot-head in films like Pineapple Express.
The irony is that Franco's biggest payday is in the Rise of the Planet of the Apes, a film that posits the end of human civilization as a consequence of a commercial airline pilot transmitting a disease worldwide via his job. This mirrors the real life story of "Patient Zero" --a homosexual male flight attendant who managed to spread HIV/AIDS all over the globe as a consequence of his wanton lifestyle
Ironic link number #2 is the Lancelot Link, i.e. the monkey connection. Many believe HIV/AIDS came from human sexual contact (bestiality) between chimps and people. As inconceivable as that may be, consider the recent case of an illegal alien from Mexico, Tomas Bautista who reportedly came home drunk and sexually assaulted a Chihuahua in his backyard.
A "gay" man sodomizes a monkey and AIDS spreads around the world. AIDS is transmitted worldwide via Patient Zero. The favored lab animal for experimenting for HIV/AIDS cures? The chimp.
Yes, Lancelot Link #3 is the fact that much of the chimp experimentation came as a consequence of the breakout of AIDS in the 1980s.
Nim Chimpsky, the monkey in the documentary Project Nim was spared being used as such an experiment because of his (relative) fame as the lab animal that would "prove" that language was learned and not innate (contra linguist Noam Chomsky)
Chimpsky is a sort of Caesar without the IQ drugs. He could only go so far without external forces modifying his nature.
What that leaves us is the existential question for the role of President Obama. Is it not his duty to protect US citizens? Rise of Planet of the Apes posits man's downfall due to a highly contagious disease - that disease mirrors HIV/AIDS in its monkey linkage and consequences. Should there be a quarantine of those known to be infected from entering our country?
There was. Obama removed it
Should the group that is overwhelmingly known to be infected by the fatal disease be prevented from living in close quarters in a potentially bloody career path- like the US military?
They were. Obama and Pelosi/Reid removed all protections of our soldiers, sailors and marines from potential HIV/AIDS infected blood.
The Left always appeals to science, and its so-called great and infallible power. Unless, of course, the science doesn't support its radical social agenda. Out with the facts, in with the dogma. They ignore reality to enact their social engineering, and with dire, often deadly, consequences.
Chimp, to "gay" man, to air travel = worldwide plague.
Obama + dereliction of duty =?
Given the Caesar ape scenario, it must be asked: would a continued Obama presidency doom mankind to the Planet of the Apes?


Outstanding column, as always and depressing. We always need to face facts, as hideous as they are.
