Thoughts Of The Day

The Left appears to have serious difficulty with certain very basic concepts, such as Reality.  What The Left is doing looks a lot like the Puritan or Prohibitionist mode of behavior transferred to other areas of public policy.  We should remember that continued support for Prohibition had seriously hurt the Republicans in the 1932 election.  Even Ayn Rand had voted for FDR that year.  The Republicans could really go to town and make significant gains by opposing the Democrat's idiotic technopuritan policies, but that would mean having to give up their own idiotic practice of doing politics as usual.

The difference between being evil and being stupid is basically a matter of style.

We don't need to make the effort to mentally dehumanize our enemies when they have already chosen to dehumanize themselves. 

To govern is to restrain, those who can't or won't restrain themselves have no place in a social institution whose function is to restrain others. 

The pen and sword have always been together through the course of Western Civilization and can't be practically separated.  Anyone who believes that they can do no wrong, WILL do wrong.  Count on it.
