In Iraq, right now, there are thousands upon thousands of men and women fighting, putting themselves in harms way because they feel it is the right thing to do. They have real moral values, real strengths, and real experience. They understand the difference between right and wrong, and they know that the Iraq issue could not be dealt with by being ignored.

They hear the rhetoric of the left, and it disheartens them.
They are doing the best job they can.
They will be coming back.

They vote.

Dean? might just as well go slit your wrists right now.
Supreme court? You may think you’re above the law. That won’t help you in hell. Spend time living somewhere hot, you need to become accustomed to the climate.
All those who won’t bother to understand that Islam is toxic to human life, and must be prevented from spreading across the planet like a plague? take some time to talk to a soldier when he or she comes home. If you don’t get it then, welcome to dhimmitude.

My dear friend, sometime commenter, and involuntary beast of burden Jenny comments in the piece below (about atlas shrugged)

“Just once I’d like to see mankind reach up instead of pull down.”

That’s a perfect goddamned statement for today.

I especially want to reach up and put my hands around the necks of certian black robed morons who answer to no one. What can be done about this? Mr Porretto suggests one method, which works well at the final moment of the conflict, bascially, but the long drawn out process of tax forfeiture which will be forced upon you (first, they don;t tell you how much the taxes are. Then,they won’t let you pay them. Then, you can’t make any contact with anyone, then your property is sold to the highest bidder, in a closed auction to which you have no access.) This is how Dickey Daley has been appropriating property for years. SCOTUS basically just gave him, and others like him, complete free reign.

Maybe we need to reach up to washington. The Nation of Riflemen march. If a couple million of us showed up in the Ellipse, armed, and all locked&loaded at exactly the same time, do you think the Supreme court would hear it?

Yeah, Jenny, I know that’s not exactly what you meant, and I do understand what you meant, but this has got to STOP.

I have FINALLY trudged my way through this book, despite the unwavering willingness to slit my wrists to make it stop, dear god, just please make it stop.

I NEVER take more than two or three days to read a big book, and anything under four hundred pages is gone in a day.

For the uninitiated, here’s the cliffs notes of the cliffs notes of Atlas Shrugged:

Liberalisim at it’s core is a desire to drag everyone down to the level of the lowest of the low, to take away from those who work hard for their success and give to layabouts. About racheting down the freedom of the individual until the gummint must decide everything for everyone. It’s true on a corporate level and on an individual level. The end result of all this robin hooded stupidity is that everyone’s lives turn to shit, fairly quickly.

Well, duh.

Okay, okay, I get that it’s written in a different time, a time when people couldn’t believe this sort of thing could happen, but shit, if you don’t understand the truth if this, you really never will. And no 57 page speeches by a fictional character are gonna make you believe it.

Under “over the top” in the dictionary, they should show this book.

man, I have had to read Count of Monte Cristo twice to clear my head. And therin lies my feelings about the matter; nemo me impune lacessit. Edmond Dantes was my perfect hero. Mess with his family? he’ll ruin yours. Annoy him? he’ll duel with you and kill you. A renaissance man with the education and the cash to do his will and enforce it on others at will. Give me Edmond Dantes over John Galt anyday. Who the fuck IS john galt.
