I think you have to look for something deeper than politics to explain the growing support for Islamism. As a Bay Area resident, and therefore a Communist, I naturally turn to economics -- the individual's relation to the means of production. Whereas, Burger (for example), or another conservative of similar stripes, might take more of a law and economics approach, and look to the individual's relation to the means of production. Many people have written interesting stuff about the relationship between fundamentalism and modernity. Hmmm.

Bluegrass music is as modern as jazz. Hmmm.

Both impulses resided in early man's mind. They just found expression disparately.

An Open Letter to Europe

In honor of President Bush's historic visit to Europe this week, I have penned a letter to all the Pierres and Dieters over there.

Dear Europe:

Listen up you socialist a-hole pussies, I have a story for you.

"Once upon time there was a diseased rotten continent filled with self-absorbed effete elitist fucks who were a century past their sell-by date. Despite a shared universal ignorance of the common ideals of capitalist economic principles, freedom, liberty and any sense of morality, these little girlie-men couldn’t get along with each other and play nice in their burgeoning cesspool and a savior known as Uncle Sam had to come in and reset the geo-political order to save the cesspool from its turdish inhabitants twice in a 30 year period.

Then, on the one occasion when good old Uncle Sam could use a little support and cooperation, these imbittered shitpuffs turned their generally useless backs on him. But in the end he was fine. He was wealthy and packing some big heat and had God on his side, so he could go it alone. Keeping the spoils of victory for himself. Meanwhile, the little pissants on the rotten continent, while united, remained in a steady downward spiral, much as poo poo circles the drain before disappearing forever. Like yesterday’s news. And Uncle Sam laughed while he waived bye bye.

The end."

Yours truly,

America

If Rumsfeldt ever posted while drunk, this is what it would sound like.

And it would be good.

No, you don't understand. I haven't had a real man in so long, since I broke up with that slimeball Muslim guy. If only I hadn't let that bitch Daryn Kagan worm her way into Rush's pants, I'd be sittin' pretty. Damn liberal media ho that she is!

I had dinner with Tucker Carlson the other night, but he doesn't count. Kept whining about being canceled and asking me if I thought bowties were "cute". Right - like I give a shit about cute. He's undoubtedly a scumsucking dirtbag liberal too. Understand, it didn't stop me from capping off the evening by unhinging my lower jaw and swallowing him whole, but afterward I still felt so empty inside.
