Their political advocacy has been much more vocal (and underhanded) since the the SSM campaign and the advent of the Harper government, through institutions such as <I>Focus on the Family Canada</I>, <I>REAL Women</I> and whatever lobby groups Mullah VcVety is currently heading.<BR/><BR/>This kind of fundagelical advocacy is largely foreign to our federal politics and so it's something that I consider both fascinating and frightening, given what's happened in the US. I suspect a lot of our politicians don't even know how to handle it all that well.<BR/><BR/>She represents more than just herself to a lot of us.Ti-Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06620550471437012866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6708375.post-39855285739752882862008-04-10T18:09:00.000-04:002008-04-10T18:09:00.000-04:00who had something better than coke"better" is a ma...<I>who had something better than coke</I><BR/>"better" is a matter of opinion, but I know what you mean. I heard a similar story about police officers being attacked and repeatedly shooting people who had to be shot dead to stop them. They were on Angel Dust, aka PCP, an animal tranquilizer.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Engaging with SUZANNE is a necessary evil. If you have ever dealt with expert emotional manipulators, their entire strategy revolves around inducing an emotional state in which you are so shocked you simply accept and go along with whatever they want. <BR/><BR/>Recall the first time you saw a picture of an aborted fetus. Looked pretty gruesome, right? While you are in shock at that, your mind is much more receptive to fixing ideas into it, regardless of whether they make sense. These ideas later can only be explained as your "sense of conviction" about something, when in fact it is an idea that was implanted while you were in the shocked state. That is why you will see fetus fetishists convinced that the fetus was just as aware and intelligent as a baby. The shocking pictures are usually accompanied by a narrative to this effect.<BR/><BR/>Dealing with SUZANNE is no different than maintaining one's physical fitness. It helps in staying on top of the latest rhetoric and "arguments", and insulates you from being put into the shocked state that allows people such as her to manipulate.liberal supporterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01129945625510633921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6708375.post-63860554313851605212008-04-10T17:56:00.000-04:002008-04-10T17:56:00.000-04:00Do we delight or frustrate ourselves by aiming end...<I>Do we delight or frustrate ourselves by aiming endless energy at the undead?</I><BR/>BothAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6708375.post-54037341345560124162008-04-10T17:39:00.000-04:002008-04-10T17:39:00.000-04:00This post and the comments attached to it bring to...This post and the comments attached to it bring to mind the story told in the US Army about why they adopted the .45 automatic as the standard officer's sidearm.<BR/><BR/>A hundred years ago, there was this asymmetrical conflict in the Philippine Islands, lately liberated from the Spanish Empire, and when American officers would shoot the hopped-up insurgents with their .38 revolvers, the hopped -up insurgents — who had something better than coke though I don't presently remember what it was— were so hopped-up they didn't even know they were dead. They just kept coming. Inflicting grievous injuries on the pride and bodies of the American officers.<BR/><BR/>See, the .45 automatic would knock them down even if they didn't know they were dead.<BR/><BR/>Some commenters from time to time have complained that I do appear to be capable of following the same thread as everyone else, so I'm going to state explicitly what this comment has to do with the saga of CC's efforts to engage SUZIE ALL-CAPS in what he describes as "a real, content oriented discussion on her favorite topic."<BR/><BR/>CC's frustration with SUZIE ALL-CAPS, it seems to me, is the same frustration that led the US Army to adopt the .45 automatic. CC keeps flogging this horse because this horse is so hopped-up on something — no doubt better than coke — that she doesn't even know she's dead.<BR/><BR/>On reflection, one could say the same think about Our Beloved Patrick.

Damned if you do and damned if you don't Guilt about children is huge in this and every other society I can bring to mind.<BR/><BR/>But wondering about Suzanne personally doesn't change the fact she'd gabbling. But what else can she do? She's been sold on the magical South Park formula that:<BR/><BR/>1. Legally ban all abortion/abortificants.<BR/>2. ???<BR/>3.

How fucking dare you demean my feelings or the feelings of any other human being. Feelings are not right or wrong, they just are. It's what you do with said feelings that matters.<BR/><BR/>Obviously your feelings aren't as strong in support of children you claim them to be either. How about you fly down to Baltimore and visit Deamonte Driver's grave. Maybe do a little protesting for the fucking asshole conservatives that let him die. Or how about you take a visit to Westminster, Maryland wherein the Westboro Baptist Church is preparing to protest the funeral of two teenagers who died when the driver of the mini van they were in fell asleep.<BR/><BR/><B>It is not a matter of convincing yourself.

If a parent doesn't like children, he should grow up and learn to do so."<BR/><BR/>The adult population is littered with the shattered lives of people (perhaps SUZANNE herself) whose parents or caregivers were not able, for whatever reasons, to do what she's asking here. And that's nothing new at all.<BR/><BR/>You don't know that about yourself until you have to be responsible for children and the time to learn that is well before you ever decide to have a child.<BR/><BR/>I learned it at a time and in a place when people still had big families and the entire community looked after children. I don't know what she thinks can happen these days, without re-imagining a vastly different society and economy...something along the lines of Atwood's Gilead, I think.Ti-Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06620550471437012866noreply@blogger.com
