I haven't written anything about my perception of the state of the world lately because I've been trying to keep my mind (as opposed to loosing it) on my own life and priorities and quite frankly, the state of things is going down hill at such a rapid speed I wouldn't know where to start.
Christine O'Donnell, a smart, attractive, articulate, genuinely conservative young woman won the Republican Senate primary for Joe Biden's old seat in Delaware. That's the good news. The bad news is that a large chunk of the so called 'conservative leadership' then stood up and denounced and distanced themselves from her.
Well, good.
Who need old poops like Karl Rove anyway? What did he ever do for us but give us eight years of GWB, who WAS NOT A CONSERVATIVE.
Ms. O'Donnell apparently dabbled in witchcraft while she was in high school.
Having once been a Catholic school girl myself let me just say "WHO HASN'T??" It's a fine line between understanding the Transubstantiation and playing with a ouija board, when you're fifteen.
And as Mark Steyn wrote (I'm paraphrasing, here, not quoting); Any young woman willing to go on MTV in front of a live audience and talk against masterbation is no coward.
But as we've all seen repeatedly over the last two decades, cowardice is a requirement in Republican politics.
I think Ms. O'Donnell should run ads featuring every one of those Old Guard Republicans who have dissed her and then just run the tag line; "Christine O'Donnell; Not Your Father's Republican."
Then there's that idiot in Florida who got his fifteen minutes of fame by threatening to burn a Koran. Biggest instance of misplaced fame since that guy claimed his six year old son had floated away in a balloon. I can't remember either of their names and that's all they deserve.
But here's the thing about the book burner; I kinda wish he had done it. Don't get me wrong, I love books. I revere books. Books hold the cumulative knowledge, experience, wisdom and folly of mankind. Even bad books are a precious resource. I have never been able to throw away a book, not even a really, really crappy book, like one written by Jackie Collins. (she's the worst) But my baser self was quite curious to see just how much worse the Muslims of the world would have behaved if an anonymous Christian in Florida had lit up an inanimate object. It's not like they're behaving like model citizens of the world as is, is it?
Plenty of folks stepped up and suggested we should have instead a 'Read A Koran' Day.
There's a problem with that; According to
Islamic law , it's a crime for an infidel to touch a Koran, so if you buy one and are reading it on the bus, so as to educate yourself about the Religion of Peace and a Muslim sees you with it, he just might cut your head off.
Maybe it was the 'Read a Koran' suggestion that really sparked the riots all over the world.
Here's something I've noticed; Islamic terrorists believe they can go to Heaven by killing Christians. Christians believe they'll go to Heaven by dying for Christ. Isn't that the worst win-win scenario you've ever heard of?
The FBI raided a bunch of homes this week here in town, looking for terrorists connections and supporters.
All the homes they raided were those of "Peace Activists."
Christopher Coates, a long time (decades?) lawyer with the Department of Justice has gone
whistle blower on the Obama administration, outlining a massively corrupt department that thinks the Constitution of the United States of America is no longer a "living" document, but a dead one.
And finally,
Molly Norris has disappeared.
Don't know who Molly Norris is? She's the cartoonist who came up with the brilliant idea of 'Everybody draw Mohammed Day.' Taking the advice of the FBI, she has gone ghost; changed her name, her profession, her address. Basically, she's done everything a woman does when she's being stalked by her violent ex-boyfriend. Except Molly's being stalked by a billion Muslims.
Molly was right about draw Mohammed day. If Millions of people all over the world had drawn those cartoons, were the Muslims really going to attack every single publishing house, newspaper, magazine office etc. etc.
all over the world?
And if they did, wouldn't we at least really know where we all stand with each other?
So now Molly is no more. she's in hiding.
Where would we be today if Rosa Parks had sat down on the bus, then moved out of town and changed her name?
Email me if you're interested in sporting an "I AM MOLLY NORRIS" bumper sticker on your car.
Just as I was thinking all was lost, I watched Denzel Washington's movie The Book of Eli.
I loved it.
I didn't think I would, as it's another take on the post apocalyptic world which had been done to death in the '80s.
But the Book of Eli is different; unlike all those other gore-fest, this story has a point and it's a
really good one.
Now I have to get back to my completely frivolous job of designing needlepoint for rich old women while such folks still exist in Obama's America. Rich folk are dwindling fast and if Obamacare doesn't get repealed, old folks will become a thing of the past, as well.
Have a nice day.
