That supports my rule #1 about the left: They are determined to suck every bit of joy out of life.
In support of my theory, I ask you which group wants to remove Christmas trees from the public square, hates spending money on sports at school, spends every Father’s Day extolling single moms, works at destroying the Boy Scouts, pushes arugula rather than steak, and wants all of us to drive little roller skates and wear clothes made of hemp?
It’s always the same crowd, and it’s not conservatives.
You're right, that is something very true of them. There is a strong Puritanical streak in the "progressive" movement. I think it's one of the reasons the left gets along so well with Islam, which has no art, no music, and frowns on the most innocent everyday pleasures. Both the left and Islam want to control every aspect of people's lives, and they know it's hard to control fun, so they don't like it one little bit.
Isn't that the truth. Frankly, I don't want to be as unhappy as they are.
