I hate your politics

Sorry, you gotta do all three. So if your darlin' little bride already looks like a trophy wife, you have a lock on one.

As far as the coke and sodomy go, you gotta do it. However, since you're one of us, we'll take your word for it. Just sniffle next time you come back from the restroom, for verisimilitude.

What the hell is a blog? You're not one of them EuroWeiners are you?

[Jim Scott]

...a big give-away is his thinking the liberals got screwed in the 2000 election because they play too fair and too nice...

Agreed. The nasty, liberal-mantra slurs against President Reagan ('brain dead') sort of telegraphed his real sympathies too but according to him, only conservatives 'nuke' political opponents. Uh huh.

Noooooo, John Scalzi isn't a liberal, he just writes like one. Nice try John; portray liberals as well-intentioned pushovers (this from the creators of the 'Politics of Personal Destruction') who argue internally while the big, bad, mean, cold-hearted conservatives 'beat them up'.

The 2000 election take was the capper; the Democracts got screwed? Since that will be the liberal orthodoxy for the next century or so regarding the thwarted Democrat theft of the 2000 election, Scalzi's 'moral relativist' nonsense directed at conservatives was hollow. Of course he assumes to trump any argument with his 'you all stink' pose, thus shielding his opinions from complaints from any corner, while still making the liberals look good by comparison with the nasty conservatives and the silly Libertarians. Clever, amusing but insincere.

Thanks!

For a while there, things looked really bleak....

Sodomy or vote Hillary! in 2004

"Well? What's it gonna be?"

Don't rush me! I'm thinkin'! I'm thinkin'!!

Scalzi himself, of course, is a Liberal - the worst kind. This filth does not walk, it crawls. On his web site he defends the disgusting Ted Rall cartoon which mocked the widows of the WTC bombing, and Danny Pearl's widow, in the most vile way. You can read it yourself here http://www.scalzi.com/w020306.htm (major SLIME alert).

[Hell to pay]

The author of this article is just PO'd because I crapped on his pie.

[Rick_Hunter]

Fractious and have no sense of loyalty; will publicly tear out the intestines of those closest to them at the most politically inopportune times.

----------------------------

I'll say! Just look at the Democrats' smear campaign against Ralph Nader. Was that disgusting or what? I don't remember who said it, but I've heard it once said that when leftists start a firing line, they form in a circle.

[Lurker]

Me too.

Just re-define "Sodomy" to suit your own purposes.

[purereason]

"Liberals: ....allowed conservatives to turn their name into a slur against them,,,Defensive and peevish even when they're right...Feel guilty about the freedoms their political positions allow them, which is frankly idiotic...easily distracted from large, useful goals by pointless minutiae

"Conservatives: Self-hating moral relativists...but privately engages in sodomy...nearly every conservative aspires to be so...Conservatives have no volume control on their hate...Pen their "thinkers"...rather than let them interact with people who might oppose their views"

"Libertarians: ...currently punishing the rest of us...Easily offended; Libertarians most likely to respond to this column."

LIBERTARIANS/CONSERVATIVES:...The author will attempt to engage subtle wit but will actually come across as a geeky whiner (Conservatives, more schooled in the art of poisonous replies, may actually achieve wit; liberals will reply that they don't find any of this humorous at all). Libertarians secretly worried that ultimately someone will figure out the whole of their political philosophy boils down to "Get Off My Property"

Let me take a guess. The liberals are right and have useful goals, the conservatives are self-hating moralists that "hate", and the libertarians are only concerned about "their" property.

Full of hate and pretending to be open-minded, got to be a liberal infiltrator.

[jodorowsky]

I'm guessing you thought I was way off on your political philosophy but right on the button about the other two.

Actually, all three of the summaries are shallow and impertinent.

[Tennessee_Bob]

Sorry about the dead link. A blog is a web log - an online journal. Click here.

[weikel]

Actually I doubt it he mentioned the liberals as the ones having no sense of humour.

Sorry forgot to re-review before posting.Lost last sentence.

[Khepera]

Well that explains it.

[NC_Libertarian]

Amazingly balanced (/sarcasm)

[Humidston]

I stopped reading right after the line that said liberals were screwed out of the 2000 election.

[Sci Fi Guy]

This is pretty amusing. WOnder how the author defines himself.

You are joking right??

[ihatemyalarmclock]

What a hoot. Bet this guy doesn't have too many friends..

He might, in fact, be great fun at parties after the third or fourth "freshening" of drinks, which would put his audience on the cusp of DUI, arrests for which would cause conservatives to be embarrassed and hire lawyers to defend them, liberals to blame their hosts and hire lawyers to prosecute them and libertarians to claim that police had no right to stop them in the first place, much less measure their body chemistry, and sue the government on that basis.

This was a great article. It caused me to laugh, grind my teeth, and think about several things. Luckily, after reading it, I'm still as wonderful as I was before.

To those of you who don't believe that, I'm going to get angry, then lose my sense of humor, then go cruising for illegal drugs and cheap, tawdry sex.

Can anyone spot me $20? Just until payday. Umm, make that $50.
