Waiting for Fitzgerald

That's fine with me, Penske, but I'm just reading your posts as they're written, and seeking your ideological soulmate. I think you're writing off your devoted flock much too quickly.

Think about a stanza from this poem, for example.

• We've voted in a government
  that's rotting at the core,
  Appointing Godless Judges
  who throw reason out the door.
  
  Too soft to place a killer
  in a well-deserved tomb,
  But brave enough to kill a baby
  before he leaves the womb.
  
  You think that God's not angry,
  that our land's a moral slum?
  How much longer will He wait
  before His judgment comes?

Look, you throw in a babyjesuschristsuperstar or a Byrd reference in there, and I'd have sworn that you'd have written it in lambasting your "Dims."

Of course, in actuality Roy Moore wrote it, and he's talking about Bush. But I'm sure that the two of you can sort that stuff out over a nice glass of tea at upcoming national GOP fundraisers.

Were you part of the "break off the blue states and go with Canada" movement? did you attack those that did? Wasn't that writing off the South?

Ah, ah, ah. You're practicing moral relativism. And you're doing it in the name of a state's right to interfere with the natural rights of parents to raise their children.

I'm going home now. You can admit that I have you in checkmate, or we can pick up again tomorrow. In case you're having trouble keeping score:

1. You have yet to offer any support for the notion that your God is absolutely superior than any other God. Absolute faith is nothing more than moral relativism in the absence of proof that God exists and that God is the only true God.

2. You lost on the notion that to kill is an absolute wrong. Merely claiming that it is for God to judge is a concession you've been blocked.

3. You have taken the position that it is okay for the state to run roughshod over the family bond. And you couldn't even offer a token defense for your position.

Sleep well, friend.

And, apparently, Wonk has red hair and a huge rack.

I don't think so, no.

I'm not sure I'm getting your point. Mine is to direct Penske to his partner in rhetoric, Roy Moore. From all appearances, he's to become the George Wallace of the social conservatives, so this is an opportunity for Penske to get in on the ground floor, as it were.

Either way, stick with the mocking of religion and people who have faith. That is a winning theme for the Demos eventually, I am sure.

Since when did objecting to the imposition of another's faith upon oneself become "mocking"?

It is precisely the claim that babyjesus is and should be everywhere that makes the argument so distasteful.

BTW, perhaps South Boston would be more your speed.

Nice, keep beating it. Your posts are like a chimp in the zoo who spends 23 hours a day jerking off. Maybe you should go to the South if you are so obsessed with it, or maybe you are exhibiting that self-loathing thing Sidd posts about. I am fairly certain based on my daily interactions with Southerners irl, they don't want me and I don't want them. Although given a choice between the south and France.........I would choose France. The South of France. So now we can note I don't always say bad things about France or southern places.

As for the poem, its an artistic piece that captures a real angst a sizable portion of the population has with the wayward moral compass in our nation. I like a range art. This is a nice bookend to my Dung Madonna Screensaver. Interesting also, that the leftists think that a crucifix in a jar of urine is equivalent to a modern day Guernica (hi Hank!) but would mock this poem as it exposes their moral failings.

Further, if you think the sentiment in the poem is limited to the south then you are showing your ignorance of America or maybe you are just too arrogant to respect a more well defined morality than you have. I can drive 15 minutes outside of the most socialist city in America and find towns with a majority of people who would agree with that. Drive north or west from NYC or West from Chicago and you would find the same.

Finally, my urination reference was not meant in an offensive way. It is my understanding that in order for one's presence in a state to count for the Quest for 50, you either have to go to the bathroom, engaging in a commercial transaction, or having a meal in the State (but airports never count). Driving over the border and peeing quickly seems to be the most efficient score, although, for example I got Iowa by driving 5 miles over the border to Spirit Lake, buying a spark plug from a Trak Auto and a coke from 7-11.

I see that the Senate told Bush to fuck off last night.

Interesting.

I have yet to meet a more close minded intolerant group of people that the American leftists in our present age. Of course their talibanistic creed of PC is a glowing beacon of their intolerance and hatred of the spectrum of cultural and philosphical belief. I wonder why they don't move to Canada? Or FRance?

A person with a wayward moral compass and inability to distinguish right from wrong would say that. Nic gif. though.

Doesn't your dick get sore from all the beating off?

Hank's point was that maybe the out of touch left wing would be happier in Canada since they don't seem comfortable with the cultural or moral foundation of Bush's America.

Its mocking when its an attempt to silence, exclude and illegimitaze a substantial portion of the electorate. Unfortunately for the left, the babyjesi are winning.

Gravity is everywhere too Burger and the left is not protesting or mocking that. Why?

Cite please.

And fwiw, I told the Senate to fuck off in my prayers before bedtime.

That's bs! When Spanky wanted a BK pleading form, I googled it and gave him the cite. I even googled his star trek question last night, but I couldn't understand the trekkerite websites it led me to. no offence.

Giuliani is somewhat of a special case, but I don't think he could beat hitlery in NY. Sadly.

'Gainst Rudy, Hill'd go down the chute
Faster than a New York minute.
And you should know it's not just me -
Lots of local Dems agree.
(That said, if she ran 'gainst McCain,
I'd probably vote Dem again.)

On a related note,
I will share this annecdote:
This morning on the subway
A young rapper made my day.
He said he wanted to be president,
And fuck both parties, he was independent!
