I really did mean it when I said that I love Morgan. More than anything, I love her because we can disagree … strongly, to say the least … but both still see an individual – a person – when it’s over. She also laughs at herself and can take a joke. Two very clear, early signs of a sane person in a world gone mad.
Recently, we’ve had a tussle over the election. She responded to someone she thought was me, point by point. I think she mistook me for Sean Hannity. (If only I was that cute and had that kinda money. With my intelligence instead of his stupidity … Just, damn. I’d own the world.) She put words in my mouth and did some fierce battle with strawmen using talking points.
I intended to respond, but like most greedy, racist capitalists, I have money to steal from the mouths of poor, black inner-city children named Barack. It’s hard work and if I don’t do it, who will? So I haven’t found the time to respond to her DNC talking points, pivots and distortions one at a time.
This is my penance. (Wherein I come close.)
I’m not voting but I find the pursuit of power fascinating. So I’m a political junkie. I consider it an enemy watch. Seems like she does too.
Even though I think we’re friends, it seems like she has different enemies than me.
Anyway, I posted a very long comment on her blog and then realized it should be posted here. I didn’t intend it to be a blog post, but it became one and being a filthy, stingy, greedy capitalist, I couldn’t let her get all the profit from it.
If you want context, click the link above and pay Morgan’s pimp Google to see her post and the video. Here’s my comment, copy and paste:
Trojan Moose? No kidding?
Ever heard of ACORN or The New Party? (Google ‘em.)
Can I say Trojan Negro without being called a racist? Not likely.
I have no dog in this fight. I’m not voting and I’m not a McCain supporter in the least. In fact, you should also know that I’ve never voted for W and resent the fact that I keep getting forced to defend him- when I don’t agree with him or his policies – by the irrational, retarded, illogical hatred from the hard-core left.
I loved that video and it made me love Sarah and Todd even more. I hang out with people like that and I seek them out.
I cling bitterly to my guns and religion because George W. Bush failed me. (Apparently. That’s what Barry Hussein, the DNC and their chatterboxes all over the TV tell me.)
Do you people ever get out of the circle-jerk long enough to see sunshine?
I refuse to say the pledge of allegiance, too. Unlike your ridiculous atheist friends I refuse to say it not because because it mentions God but because it declares allegiance to a nation that is “indivisible.”
The correct side lost The War for Independence and Lincoln overthrew America. (It was also never about slavery because Lincoln himself was a horrible racist, promised he would never interfere with the slave trade and never did anything to help slaves. But I digress.)
If the original ratifiers of The Constitution had not believed that they were joining a free Union that they could freely leave at any time, there never would have been a united States of America. (Capitalization, or lack thereof, is intentional.)
Every state has the right to secede any time the people of that state so choose. Apparently, they just don’t have the power. Anymore. Thanks to Lincoln.
This is the difference between you and me. I’m a sovereign individual that respects others as individuals.
You prefer the comfort that comes from large groups that can afford to hire others to commit violence on their behalf. So they can remain comfortable and not have to mess up their nails or, y’know, actually see all that icky bloodshed.
Government IS violence. I won’t vote for McCain because he wants more of it. I most certainly won’t vote for Obama because he loves it even more than John.
They seem to differ only on the specifics of where it should be used- mainly – at home or abroad.
And please rid yourself of any notion that I’m a “conservative.” It’s not true and that thinking only confuses you while attempting to understand me.
(“Could you please get that gun out of my face? No, it’s not a racial thing, Senator Obama. I have no problem at all with the color of your skin. It’s the gun you’re pointing at me with which I’m concerned. If you could figure out how to show me the same respect I’m showing you we can avoid a fight.”)
