Political Potporrrui

Arlen Specter has been a Democrat ever since he was elected in 1980. Why does anybody consider it news that he has finally admitted it? Now if we can only get the rest of the Republican party to admit it.

Hi, my name is the Republican party and I’ve been a Democrat for 50 years.

Don’t let the talking heads fool you. When they lament that the Republican party can’t keep their moderates what they really mean is that the Republican party can’t keep their Liberal Democrats who call themselves Republican. The whole fricking Republican party is moderate by any sane standard…. and that is being generous.

Why do I get the sense that the swine flu is a bunch of bull-crap? Why does anyone automatically give credence to anything that the government reports about anything? If the Government isn’t lying to the public it can only fall back on being totally incompetent. Giving the government responsibilities in the health realm is like putting a Witch doctor in charge of the University of Michigan Medical school. Here is some cheap advice. If we ever get to the point where things are really dire and the government says the citizenry should do “x” wise citizens will completely ignore these buffoons and do “y.”

I have a suggestion on the torture issue. We could try water-boarding on our politicians and if a few of them die then we can conclude that it really was torture…. or conversely we might conclude that poetic justice exists and that the ones who died were terrorists. If we are still unsure we could do it again until we find out for sure. Listen people, our political and bureaucratic class is much more dangerous to us then the terrorists out there. Unlike the political / bureaucratic class the terrorists haven’t killed 50 million unborn babies.

Today Congress passed more hate crimes legislation thus proving that crimes that are committed out of hate are to be punished more seriously then crimes that are committed out of love. Juries are now going to be asked not only to find people guilty beyond a reasonable doubt they are going to be asked to be soothsayers who can pretend to know what was on the criminals mind when he was committing the crime.

Take it to the bank … by the time that the Obama administration is finished the race relations in this country will be more tense then they have been since the 1960’s.

It is my hope that people will be challenged to reconsider what are considered the givens of the current culture. Your biggest help to me dear reader will be to often remind me that God is Sovereign and that all that is, is because it pleases him. View all posts by jetbrane
