it was a couple year old Quattroporte, but it was obviously someone not afraid to drive, there was a little ding in one rim and curb crease in one of the rockers. It was an old man color- I think they call it ‘Alfa grey’ and the front rims were mostly brake dust. To me, all the signs of someone who appreciates the car and uses it hard.
So why was he letting me pass him? I was on the outside and it was a big sweeping curve, he had me by speed, agility, and ponies.
And then I saw them. A black Ford 500 with gummmint tags, about a half mile ahead, and another, about a half mile behind. I looked to my left, he looked at me, and he was clearly not pleased. he was being herded, and didn’t seem to be happy about the herding. Poor bugger. I hope he wasn’t in too much trouble. But if he was, could I have the car?
was on the Don & Roma show this morning. Bruce and Dan filling in for Don and Roma, they asked him a few more stupid questions than Don or Roma would (Or at least Bruce Wolf did, Dan Proft has a bit more maturity) but their questions about foreign policy obviously rang his bell (Since Luap’s foreign policy has long involved sticking his fingers in his ears and saying “LALALALALALALALA”)and when Proft suggested (and correctly so) that there was and is a growing issue about islamofascists Luap’s response was “Maybe a couple hundred thousand of them”
??????
The boy really IS from mars. And he doesn’t know bruce and Dan from Adam, either; so when he snapped back with “What YOU want is a HOLY WAR!!!”
Really, luap? Really? You never, ever spoke with these two men before ninety seconds ago, and they bring up the real and credible threat of global islamicization, and you immediately know they’re bucking for a holy war? Really? then he actually said
“How about all those Christians that do bad things!!”
Look: In case you’ve been under a rock, torturing, murdering, or subduing people is not Christian behavior, and at no point in the core of Christianity is this acceptable. if you profess to be a Christian, and you do those sorts of things, you’re a bad Christian. The argument can easily be made that by doing those things you demonstrate that in fact you are NOT a Christian; a Christian doesn’t engage in that behavior (This is one of the reasons I still like the Catholic Church; unlike most Christian sects, if you fuck up, they throw you out. hell, they don’t even have to do so intentionally; certain behavior automatically separates you from the church, as every good catechist knows.)
On the other hand, if you spend your time torturing, murdering, or subduing people, it makes you a GOOD muslim, because those things exist at the core of islam and in fact define it. You can disagree with this, and you’ll be wrong. QED.
it was hard to take Luap seriously before, I mean, look at the campaign posters.

but now that his deliberately obtuse stance on these issues puts him in the same camp as those who put the ‘Coexist” stickers on their bumpers.
Morons.
