Guns and Sex

Guns and Sex. Two topics that are guaranteed to raise ratings at the box office. Two things that people find of such interest that human culture seems insanely preoccupied with them.

Isn't it strange then that the left wants to teach responsible use of sex while totally banning guns, except for government use, while the right wants to teach the responsible use of guns while banning sex outside of marriage. This despite the evidence that neither approach seems to work well, while those cultures that have banned both have become irrelevant. At the same time those cultures that have taught both, such as the Victorian,  have flourished. Don't tell me that the Victorians had prohibitions against sex. That was only in the context of marriage. There were plenty of brothels available.

It leaves one wondering about the control issues of both sides, as well as the similarities between marriage and government.

Liberal

Your hardcore liberal is someone who denies that genetics has any part in explaining human capacity, yet insists on owning a purebred dog, because they are superior to mutts.

Birthers

You have to admire the Obama camp on this one. It's been brilliantly played.

Obama isn't eligible to be president. It's a simple fact. His father was a British citizen, that makes him ineligible. His mother got Indonesian citizenship for him. That makes him ineligible. Technicalities, yes, but there nonetheless.

Granted, since they are technicalities, Obama could probably have done some sort of work around, but that would have cost time, money, and votes. So what happens.........

The fundamentalist right wing claims Obama is born in Kenya, Obama obfuscates to ridiculous levels, the "Birthers", taking the bait, pursue to ridiculous levels. So now, no one can point to the actual facts of Obama's ineligibility without the cry of "Birther", which renders everything they say null and void.

You have to ask, is the fundamentalist right actively working for the DNC or are they just that stupid?

United Nations

Why in the name of all that's Holy do liberals support the United Nations. Just look at the name, United Nations. It doesn't support people, or moral principles of government, it supports nations. It doesn't matter whether it's Sweden or North Korea. The nation is what is important. How can anyone who doesn't believe in the divine right of kings want anything to do with them?

Of course, dealing with nations makes it a lot easier for the multinationals to work deals, but I thought all good liberals hated multinationals. I guess they're just that stupid.

Ray Rice

What's the big deal? His fiancee spits on him (assault) and he knocks her out (assault). If the roles had been reversed, everyone would be saying that he deserved it. As it is, I keep hearing about how you should never hit a woman (even if she is committing assault).

If you believe that, you either believe that you can't hit a woman because she's inferior to a man and needs protection, that you can't hit a woman because a man is so lowly that to question her would destroy the social order, or you are incapable of coherent thoughts, in which case your thoughts and words have no value.

Salvage Goods

Why is it that women think they can party with the cool kids until the wrinkles appear, and then find a nice guy who they can settle for. A nice guy who won't only pay for her mistakes but put up with constant comparisons with her past life. It boggles the mind.
