Alarming News: I like Morgan Freeberg. A lot.
American Digest: And I like this from "The Blog That Nobody Reads", because it is -- mostly -- about me. What can I say? I'm on an ego trip today. It won't last.
Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler: We were following a trackback and thinking "hmmm... this is a bloody excellent post!", and then we realized that it was just part III of, well, three...Damn. I wish I'd written those.
Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler: ...I just remembered that I found a new blog a short while ago, House of Eratosthenes, that I really like. I like his common sense approach and his curiosity when it comes to why people believe what they believe rather than just what they believe.
Brutally Honest: Morgan Freeberg is brilliant.
Dr. Melissa Clouthier: Morgan Freeberg at House of Eratosthenes (pftthats a mouthful) honors big boned women in skimpy clothing. The picture there is priceless--keep scrolling down.
Exile in Portales: Via Gerard: Morgan Freeberg, a guy with a lot to say. And he speaks The Truth...and it's fascinating stuff. Worth a read, or three. Or six.
Just Muttering: Two nice pieces at House of Eratosthenes, one about a perhaps unintended effect of the Enron mess, and one on the Gore-y environ-movie.
Mein Blogovault: Make "the Blog that No One Reads" one of your daily reads.
The Virginian: I know this post will offend some people, but the author makes some good points.
Poetic Justice: Cletus! Ah gots a laiv one fer yew...
Michelle Obama lectured us about love, Bill Clinton spoke to us about honor, Cherokee Liz talk to us about truth or something, I guess, and then President Obama said something about making everything equal for everybody. It’s too bad Ted Kennedy couldn’t give lessons on how to drive a car over a bridge, but glad to see they have designated experts on everything.
And then the jobs report for August came out, it stunk on ice and the democrats made it clear they think this is what success looks like.
Well…that is certainly impressive. Please do tell me more about these wonderful speeches and how engaging they were.
I have a theory: When democrats start to make noise about womens’ “reproductive choices” — when that wasn’t what people were already talking about — it means they are in trouble. I think this is their argument of last resort. I mean you have to admit, if there’s some imminent crisis with women teetering on the brink of gestational slavery, 45 years or whatever is a very long time to be doing this teetering. But for a cheep gimmick to be stored in a closet somewhere and then hauled out in time for elections, it’s just about average.
I have another theory: When democrats start talking this up because one of their own is in trouble, I believe a statistical sampling of history will reveal it is the men who are in trouble when this happens. Re-elect him, because he will keep abortion legal and shower you with free contraceptives and that’s all a girl really wants, right? So abortion-talk is drummed up when male democrat politicians are in trouble. I have two female democrat politicians as my senators, they are both considered rather safe now that they’ve been in for twenty years. But this was not always the case, and I cannot recall them flocking to the safe harbor of “I’ll keep abortion legal” the way the men do.
It really all just comes down to this: Barack Obama has entirely used up His term, and at the very end of it He is still blaming Bush.
How racist would you have been if, exactly four years ago, you ran around saying “I’ll bet if Barack Obama gets to be President, at the end of four years He’ll still be blaming George Bush?” Such a remark would not have been allowed…well…pretty much anywhere, right? And yet, here we are. Quite remarkable.

But…but…SOME folks, that traditionally caaaaall themselves Democrats, feeeeeel that, no MAN has the RIGHT to “oppressive” opinion/vote on “insurance” for “women’s” “access” to “choice”of “private” “life-saving” “health” “lifestyle”. Especially (but certainly not limited to) “childhood (?-26)” “educational” “career” “diversity” “environments”,of “adjustable” “financial”,
“social”, and actually demonstrated “comprehension” consequences.
But, of course, unless one confers with…say…OED before “wiki”, holding such an opinion COULD make me bigoted, MIGHT make me sexist, OBVIOUSLY ageist, POTENTIALLY racist, and ESSENTIALLY a PATRIARCHAL candidate for FELONY “status”.
Would this mean that, as per Title IX, “Alien Spouse”, and the minuta of Obama “Care” laws, I would be FORBIDDEN “access” to Facebook, Twitter, or investing MY “earned” assets in ANYTHING with names even REMOTELY like Johnson and Johnson?
- CaptDMO | 09/08/2012 @ 06:13How racist would you be if right now, you ran around saying “If He gets re-elected, at the end of his second term, He’ll STILL be blaming George Bush”? And yet everybody knows that if He does, He will. The Democrats won’t tell you. I just did.
