Oh, I think we all know the answer. Even River, though no admission will be forthcoming.

"I thoroughly disapprove of duels. If a man should challenge me, I would take him kindly and forgivingly by the hand and lead him to a quiet place and kill him."




For that matter, can anyone show me all the heavily-armed anti-government LEFT-WING militias that must have been so active during the Bush Regime, and that took their guns to his every speech and appearance?

Are there no right-wing punks? Really? I used to know a guy who was big into the punk scene, sported the mohawk and piercings, and was an active member of the John Birch Society.

well, i think its only fair to point out that the left claims a special privilege of morality, albeit one not based on religion. rather, it is based on atheism and self-loathing. ;).

everyone must believe that have a superior moral ground over their foes--its just part of our political culture, and our failing as a nation. for example, PN, Rappy, and RL aren't just wrong, and I don't just disagree with them--they are crazy and dumb and immoral and evil.

ah come now chap, you're splitting the hair a little thin, aren't you? i imagine that somewhere out there, there must be a seriously confused fellow who expresses his love/hate relationship with authority with tattoos and membership in the birchers. but by and large, if you see punker with a mohawk, i believe that it is more likely than not that he is liberal. the converse of this, is that when you see a fellow with hair like newt gingrich, a pot belly, and a t-party shirt, that it is more likely than not he faps to sarah palin. to suggest otherwise is to be silly, and quarrelsome. ;)

They call the wind Mariah, but I'm officially changing that to mincingbeast. Hey, the worst thing I've ever been called here came from our friend Kwicko last year, when multiple times he called me a "death-loving cunt." After I cried and cried for days, I came to a point where I sort of admired him for that, because he clearly put his feelings on his sleeve and lashed out with 100% pure un-adulterated venomous poison. You've got some work to do MB before you can attain that level of hatred and profanity, but I have a feeling you can get there too if you set your mind to it. I'll be here, and a few others too, for you to use as fodder for sharpening your skills in that area. Mazel tov!

How uniquely marvelous for you that you can both ask and answer your own questions! Sounds like you should be in politics.

Ah, but aren't you now participating in the kind of gross generalization the right accuses the left of when we point out that the tea-baggers are in general a racist bunch?

i disagree with you. hence, you are dumb and evil and mentally ill! you represent everything that is wrong with everything!

crap, i'm just no good at this. but i will get better.

your breath stinks!

thats no good, either.

do you like chocolate? i hate chocolate! you are stupid and smelly and so forth for liking chocolate.

but if i may be serious, the only thing that i hate more than conservatives, and freedom, must be piety of any sort--conservative or otherwise. you're not pious, are you?

fair enough kwicko. if i see a dude with a beard, i suppose it is a gross generalization to assume that it is in fact a dude. it could, in fact, be a lady with a beard, for example. not reasonable at all to jump to hasty conclusions based on physical signifiers that people deliberately choose. ;)

i disagree with you so much now that i am gonna become a conservative!

How does that square with the "latte-drinking liberal" image? Or the "leather elbow-patch elitist liberal"? Or the "wafer-thin female vegan liberal"? Seems like you see a LOT of people and think "liberal"!

FWIW, when I see a punker with a mowhawk, I assume he's a nihilist.

You need to get a bigger politcal vocabulary.
