sad truths

"I had never before been a special fan of that great comedian Phyllis Diller, 
but she utterly won my heart this week by sending me an envelope that, 
when opened, contained a torn-off square of brown-bag paper 
of the kind suitable for latrine duty in an ill-run correctional facility. 
Duly unfurled, it carried a handwritten salutation reading as follows: 

 Money's scarce 
Times are hard 
 Here's your f***ing
 Christmas card 



I could not possibly improve on the sentiment, but I don't think it ought to depend on the current austerities. Isn't Christmas a moral and aesthetic nightmare whether or not the days are prosperous?” 
~ Christopher Hitchens


Phyllis Diller 7.17.1917 ~ 8. 20. 2012

he was right about one thing...

"monsters walk among us..." 

  ~  he is one.

there are others:


Fighting the NRA leadership means knowing who is in it http://www.dailykos.com/story/2012/12/21/1172692/-Fighting-the-NRA-leadership-means-knowing-who-is-in-it

enough said?

do you really hunt with those? 


 I'd be more impressed if you went out armed with the same equipment as the deer - make things a little more fair, Ted.


 You'd probably be more evenly matched with your fridge.

why, indeed?

we miss you

"Sensible people don’t mind 

        sensible limitations of their freedoms.

Especially when their freedoms 

                            have the power to kill 20 kids."

 

"I wouldn't change a word of it. I only wish the NRA and its jellyfishy, well-paid supporters in legislatures both State and Federal would be careful to recite the whole of it.....And then tell us how a heavily-armed man, woman, or child, recruited by no official, led by no official, given no goals by any official, motivated or restrained only by his or her personality and perceptions of what is going on, can be considered a member of a well-regulated militia." 
~ Kurt Vonnegut on the Second Amendment

only in my dreams...

good Sunday

Here is a Georgia State Trooper in riot gear at a KKK protest in a north Georgia city back in the 80s. The Trooper is black. Standing in front of him and touching his shield is a curious little boy dressed in a Klan hood and robe. I have stared at this picture and wondered what must have been going through that Trooper’s mind. Before the Trooper is an innocent child who is being taught to hate him because of the color of his skin. The child doesn’t understand what he is being taught, and at this point he doesn’t seem to care. Like any other child his curiosity takes hold and he wants to explore this new thing that this man is holding probably because he can see his reflection in it and that’s a neat thing and he wants to check it out. In this picture I see innocence mixed with hate, the irony of a black man protecting the right of white people to assemble in protest against him, temperance in the face of ignorance, and hope that racism can be broken because this young boy may remember that a black man smiled at him once and he didn’t seem so bad after all.

Jesus is cool and all...

and I'd still like to see the birth certificate.
