First off, not trying to be provocative, simply asking a question. July fourth is the date we celebrate the signing of the Declaration of Independence. However I could sign I’m the King of America, it’s not that significant, especially if we had lost the war. Where I’m going with is why we don’t celebrate other […]

I wrote this on my blog… Today I went to the Texas State Commission on Judicial Conduct’s website and put in a complaint for Judge Eric Moyé. Here’s  the text of my complaint. I would urge others to do the same, please be respectful and accurate on the points. I am writing to complain about […]

So a few years ago I was fortunate to see Bill while he visited here in Phoenix. During the Q/A session I asked him this question, and I would toss this out to everyone here their thoughts as well.

At one point in societal history it was considered normal to drill holes into someone’s head to “release the spirits”, to drink water from a decanter that had radioactive pellets to “give vitality, to treat certain illnesses with leaches and on and on. However there was that societal shift where en masse people stopped doing that. Instead, today it’s normal to wash hands, take a pill for what ails ya, even have a full-body scan if you so choose.

Now the question I posed to Bill, and now out to everyone here, what would you think is that “introduction to Penicillin” moment when the country, if not the world, realizes en masse how bad Socialism is and consider it as quaint as those people hundreds of years ago that tried to beat demons out of people that today we would call schizophrenic?

I often find it interesting how those on the left say “the Republicans need to do X in order for voters to accept them”. Hmmm… So this actually begs the question: Do you know what a political party is?

This of course seems like a no-brainer, sure that guy is a Democrat because he says this and that guy is a Republican because he’s against the Democrat. So let’s get into what a party is, not defining where each stands, but the general concept.

A political party is short-hand.

It really is that simple. When you have a “Legalize Marijuana” party you fairly understand what they’re looking to do. How often though does anyone go to them and tell them they should lay off the munchies? “You need to get those voters, dude, so how about backing away from the Doritoes…..”

So how do you like your Crème Brule? With extra wheat grass and roof tar? What are you talking about, that’s what a Crème Brule is right?

A label of something has a specific definition, a political party is no different. When you say you believe in X Y Z you then can compare and contrast with the current labels to see where you just about match. There’s never going to be an exact fit, never can be, otherwise there would be a “you” party of one. So when you say your values, opinions and beliefs are such-a-such you’re going with a standard that’s been set. You don’t change the standard to suit you though, it’s like saying I can’t run the mile so I’ll change the measurement to 30 grunyos. (Made that up.) It’s still a mile. (A Pluto is still a planet pinheads!) The labels are immutable, it’s how you try to fit to those standards is what you need to figure out.

Now how come the Democrats can’t be more like Republicans? Often Democrats often allude that something said is “racist” for example, yet when Democrats actually do things that are racist it’s ignored. What if I were to say then that Democrats should be less racist like the Republicans? That entire paragraph is total bullshit by the way.

Then why is it any less when Democrats say Republicans should be more like them? Because that’s not the objective. What’s really being said is “you don’t agree with me so no one vote for this guy!” Often it’s meant only to go to people’s emotions and not to their intelligence, which in-of-itself is an insult.

“He’s a racist!!!” Doesn’t even have to have any evidence, just the charge, and you get a knee-jerk reaction to stay away from “that guy”.

So when the Democrats keep saying someone needs to do this it’s never in the best interest of that person, it’s a means to silence the opposition. It’s actually an offensive tactic that should leave everyone saying “you first”.

I once saw a bumper sticker that said “Visualize Peace”. At that point I had a “moment of clarity”. I understand what the Left is trying to do and say. I had the natural rejoinder: “Of course we can have peace, it’s real easy and we can do it now. Everyone must agree with me.”

That essentially is what Democrats, whether in power, the media, the activists, whatever, they’re all saying that everyone must agree with them. We have to give up what we want and what we need and what we desire so that we can go along with that vision of THEIRS, of world peace.

We can have world peace today but you need to agree with ME. No? hmmm…. How can I get you to agree with me…. Well I can talk with you, explain the wonders of agreeing with me, anecdotes, facts, statistics, maybe have it in iambic pentameter just to be silly. Still no?

I know, bribery, I’ll pay you to agree with me, but I don’t have a lot of money, do I look like George Soros? I know the Federal Treasury has plenty I can just tax everyone and then give it to you so you can agree with me. Still no?

Maybe I’m telling it in a way that’s off-putting to you, after all it’s a pretty sweet deal in my eye, so maybe I’ll say it in a different way. What do you mean I’m lying, of course not, I don’t need deceit and trickery, although that isn’t a bad idea after all we are trying to get to world peace.

So I’ve tried everything I can think of to get you to agree with me, it must be that you’re at fault then. Couldn’t possibly be my ideas are bad, you’re just a hater. Hey, no one listen to this hater!!! Hater says what? Hater says what? Neener neener hay…ter…

Oh now people are listening to him instead of my wonderful ideas? I already told them that he’s a hater, so they must be haters too. And haters, well, they get what they deserve, after all hate kills. Since we can’t have hate ruin our world peace it’s appropriate to use whatever means we can to get them to go away and be quiet. Look, a black man in a wheel chair…… people peacefully protesting……didn’t you know you never bring a knife to a gun-fight? After all world peace is at stake and you’re in the way.

Yes, funny how that always happens, doesn’t it. Nice car by the way, fits your sticker well.
