Liberals like to describe themselves as the most compassionate ones, the ones that believe like Hubert Humphrey did that the moral test of a society is how it treats its vulnerable citizens in the dawn and the twilight of life. That's not the party line at the Daily Kos.
Jon Stafford bluntly wrote on Wednesday night that "I often describe myself as 'Not Pro-Choice, Pro-Abortion. There are too many goddam people already.' And while this is meant to be facetious, nevertheless there is a seed of truth in it, because I believe that the world is wildly overpopulated and that we must take steps as a society to reduce it. This will undoubtedly be met with accusations of callousness, but we could really use is a global superplague. The Black Death may have been horrible, but without it there would never have been a Renaissance."
Stafford also unsurprisingly declared himself a radical atheist, linking back to his recent comments on Rick Perry and Michele Bachmann:
Rick Perry scares me. Michele Bachmann too. Not because they are crazy (although they are), but because they are charismatic and crazy. Because they tap into a strain of crazy that runs deep and strong in this country, a Christian fanaticism that is every bit as ugly as its Islamic counterpart. And every bit as destructive.
So wait, this Kosmonaut welcomes a "global superplague," a new Black Death, and he thinks it's the Christians who have fanatically destructive wishes?

In a superplague, the effete Liberals would be the first to perish. Urban areas and defenseless college towns will be easy picking for the roving gangs trying to survive.
Seriously, for a true ‘super plague’ to work it would need a very, very long incubation time maybe six month’s or so, with no obvious symptoms yet be communicable for most of that incubation period.
That way the majority of the targeted populace would be infected before discovery by the ‘authorities’.
Anything less could be held at bay by total isolation until the plague burned itself out. A lot of Science Fiction and medical thriller writers have thought long and hard about it.
But as someone else said a psychological plague as evidenced by advocating a type of anything goes/no consequence lifestyle would work. It just takes a lot longer, possibly over several generations. Which is what we are seeing now.
The question now is, ‘Is this curable?’ and if so are we willing to apply the treatment to cure it?
Ah, Jo Stafford, AKA “GI Jo”, known by that name by the soldiers of WW2, was indisputably one of the GREAT popular vocalists throughout the 40s and 50s.
“Always womanly , but never coquettish”, as the jazz critic
Gary Giddins PERFECTLY put it.

I might pay attention to these barking moonbats when a Christian, claiming that God told him to do it, kills as many people as died at the hands of Islamic terrorists on 9/11, or any of the other attacks by Islamic terrorists in the last 20 years.
It is not the stated aim of Christianity to FORCE everyone to submit to its God, or to treat those who are not Christians as second class citizens, and tax them more heavily than Christians. BOTH of those are tenets of Islam.
“res ipsa loquitor”? - reserve a piece of licorice? My french isn’t what it should be.
