If the shoe fits, Samuel, wear it.

And while you’re trying them on, ask yourself why conservatives — BY THEIR OWN ESTIMATIONS — underperform in the news media and academia.

If you want to demand that creationism is science, get used to walking around in those idiot shoes. If you want to insist –as Dick Cheney STILL does — that Saddam Hussein was in league with Al Qaeda and had WMD ready for an attack on the U.S. — then get used to being dismissed as delusional and/or ignorant.

If you want to argue, against every available statistical observation, that Republicans are more fiscally responsible than Democrats, learn to limp along in those moron sneakers.

But maybe you don’t buy the conservative mainstream media nonsense and don’t have any need to wear those stinky imbecile loafers. If so, good for you! Have a cookie and STOP WHINING!!!!

Puh-lease! A media “invention?” Millions of us know very well that our big-city and university town symbol-manipulating New Class fellow American “progressives” view us as yahoos and dupes and idiots.

Just because we believe that life begins at conception and that the second amendment means we are allowed to own a gun doesn’t mean that we have never read the Nation nor
the Progressive nor Mother Jones nor “What’s Wrong with Kansas?”

Are we really supposed to believe that “progressives” aren’t hostile to free trade and don’t think we are nativists and racists for wanting to enforce the immigration laws that are on the books? And don’t think us confused for not voting Democratic and our supposed “class” interests? And don’t view pietistic and fundementalist and evangelical (white) Christians
with utmost contempt.

The problem with this revisionism is that we can read, and have been reading your progressive crapola for decades.

But I must confess, all this talk about bowling is making me homesick for Los Angeles, where we bowl as well as anyone from Pennsylvania. Probably better:

“Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton warned Tehran on Tuesday that if she were president, the United States could ‘totally obliterate’ Iran in retaliation for a nuclear strike against Israel.”

Great point about the mythification of Pennsylvania. I live next door, drive through often and have a kid in college there, but I haven’t yet spotted the beasts with bowling balla slouching towards Bethlehem.

At some point the whole campaign begins to seem like a media-generated folk tale and that the peaks and troughs and crises are spun into life out of TV pixels. But unfortunately the folk-tale has real consequences.

Yeah, actual age is a predictor, but it’s also how young people are in their minds!

I was 21 when Bill Clinton played sax on Arsenio Hall and I just wasn’t impressed at all. Nor when he was on MTV. It was sort of exciting that the “Twelve year midnight” of Republican rule was ending, but Clinton seemed like a phony to me. I bet the youth and Obama supporters will be even more jacked in the general election. The inaugeration party will be crazy!!!

Your second choice would be Hillary. But for godsake, if you a a self-starter, an entrepreneur, a hard worker, a responsible person who respects the only thing our Constitution promises you, “FREEDOM to pursue happiness”, not guarantee it, do not go anywhere near either of these two.

Nothing is for free, which you will eventual find out as your freedoms to make your own decisions in ‘your’ life are traded off for a huge, expensive, and intrusive money sucking monster.

…CNN aired “America Votes 2008” with Rick Sanchez, …a segment that featured reporter Sanchez visiting Penn State University to talk to some of the students about the upcoming Pennsylvania Democratic Primary.

21-year-old journalism student Chelsea Brown (said), “Not only were the interview questions blatantly skewed to the left, those of us that did not agree with Sanchez’s political views were told that we were wrong and that we supported Communist thought for not questioning our government more (this related specifically to supporting the troops and their mission in Iraq). In a further discussion in which Sanchez was defending himself against “supporting the troops, but not the war,” he told us that “no one really cares what the troops think anyway.”

Miss Brown even told me that several of the crew members sought her out afterward to apologize for Sanchez’ behavior….

What do these people learn in journalism school?

I can hardly wait for their coverage in the general election.
