At long last some news that we can use! I see where the Swiss—famously known for banks, chocolate and cuckoo clocks—are ready to send crazy people into oblivion.

A ruling by Switzerland’s highest court released Friday has opened up the possibility that people with serious mental illnesses could be helped by doctors to take their own lives.

So the next time the world’s ruling and chattering classes meet at Davos we can euthanize the lot of them—John Kerry first.

This has been a banner year for perversion, what with films celebrating bestiality and the rape of pre-pubescents. But now I hear that the Seattle degenerates are coming after my cup of Joe.

Welcome to “sexpresso” – the latest coffee fad to hit America, in which the country’s seemingly boundless fascination for Italian-style Java is combined with its equally boundless fascination for half-naked women.

Brokeback mountains. Brokeback horses. Brokeback girls. Now it is ‘brokeback coffee.’ It really is ‘all sex, all the time’ for these people. And of course we need not ask to which political party these concupiscents belong.

John Edwards made his fortune as a ‘personal injury lawyer’—what normal folk call ‘ambulance chasers.’ Now that he is running for president he promises to take more of our money.

Democratic U.S. presidential candidate John Edwards on Sunday said that he would raise taxes, chiefly on the wealthy, to pay for expanded healthcare coverage under a plan costing $90 billion to $120 billion a year to be unveiled on Monday.

Perhaps Edwards can offer the teeming masses some of his legal expertise. His 2003 financial forms

showed a total net worth between $12.8 and $60 million. Edwards was criticized for paying himself mostly through subchapter S corporate dividends, rather than a salary, to take advantage of a tax-law loophole that allowed him to avoid paying $591,000 in Medicare taxes; Edwards claimed that he chose the subchapter S structure to protect his assets from liability.

In plain speaking, the clever Edwards will protect himself from the tax laws he and his senate colleagues helped write and that they force upon the rest of us—what Edwards calls ‘the other America.’ Some animals are more equal than others.

Remember all of the wailing and gnashing of teeth that America should be worried about what ‘the Arab Street’ thinks? That somehow we need to take its views into account before we do anything at all in the Middle East? Well now, here are some facts about those unwashed, spittle-flecked, misogynistic and Jew hating rag-bags who inhabit those dreary cities of the Arab world.

High-quality, mind-opening education is virtually non-existent. Half of Arab women cannot read or write. The entire Arab world translates about 330 books annually, one fifth the number that Greece translates…in the thousand years since the reign of Caliph al Ma’mun, the Arabs have translated as many books as Spain does in just one year.

They do not read. They know nothing of soap or modern plumbing. They send their children off into the oblivion of the suicide bomb. Their one skill seems to be the spreading of mayhem and mass murder in their own nations. Why the H*** should we listen to these illiterate brutes about anything under the sun? They are unworthy of any attention save that from our military.

Looking at their scorched and sun baked lands almost makes me wish that global warming were true.

Can we stop the silly lament that ‘teachers need to be paid more’? Teachers work not for pay but for the joy of being in front of a bunch of squealing adolescents every day of the week.

Besides, we teachers make plenty of dough, thank you very much.

According to the BLS, the average public school teacher in the United States earned $34.06 per hour in 2005…

Compared with public school teachers, editors and reporters earn 24% less; architects, 11% less; psychologists, 9% less; chemists, 5% less; mechanical engineers, 6% less; and economists, 1% less.

And we only labor nine months a year to boot. Nice work if you can get it—and I got it!

Oh…my salary is paid by tax dollars—which means it comes from your pockets. I have a new gun, a new Jeep, high end audio equipment, a superb computer and lots of great food and clothes. My bank and retirement accounts are quite comfortable. I travel three times a year in both the US and Latin America. I spend my ample free time reading, writing, cooking and listening to classical music.

Thanks, guys!

Fighting off flu—or whatever malady has struck me down—has certain advantages. I get lots of sympathy at work, for one thing. Another is that while the mind is a bit too distracted to write great prose at length, it can certainly handle yet another inspiring chapter of Short Takes. So bring ’em on!

I read that Ted Kennedy is one of the Democrats who plans on ‘micro-managing’ the war. Now, I cannot be the only one who finds Kennedy’s desire to manage anything outside of a toga party a bit beyond his capacity. One look at Ted’s life—the rivers of alcohol, the gross behavior toward women, his gluttony, his adulteries, his treason, his mendacities and (of course) Mary Jo Kopechne—shows a creature solely devoted to an entire legion of carnal pursuits. This fellow cannot govern himself. How can this shabby man, this grotesque mound of ill-disciplined flesh, govern anything?

The only thing this rancid beast can do to render any service whatsoever to his nation is to leave it. Let us call this choice ‘The Hemmingway Option.’ Or even better: He can drive an Oldsmobile into a river.

What is it with Hussein and my Guatemalan travels? One of my many journeys to  that nation was during early 1991. And guess what? Saddam invaded Kuwait. And while I was in the northern jungles in 2003 American forces flushed Saddam out of his hole and threw him in the slammer. And when I was just there two weeks ago Saddam was sent to share a room with Arafat. No complaints, just an observation.

We all recall fondly Hurricane Katrina. The media did its usual shtick—blame Bush and the Republicans—and invented horror stories about man’s inhumanity to man. All false but no matter. The tale of Katrina has become woven into a national folk tale: “Ooo! Bush bad! Bush hates blacks! The Republican controlled federal government failed! And it hates blacks too! Hiss!”

Never mind that Louisiana was and is controlled by the Democrat Party. So read Clayton Cramer about how Americans responded to another disaster of equal proportions. File it under ‘the way we were—and many still are.’ Some highlights:

George Bush did not come. FEMA did nothing. No one howled for the government. No one blamed the government. No one even uttered an expletive on TV. Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton did not visit. Our Mayor did not blame Bush or anyone else. Our Governor did not blame Bush or anyone else, either.

CNN, ABC, CBS, FOX or NBC did not visit – or report on this category 5 snowstorm. Nobody demanded $2,000 debit cards. No one asked for a FEMA Trailer House. No one looted. Nobody – I mean Nobody demanded the government do something. Nobody expected the government to do anything, either.

No Larry King, No Bill O’Reilly, No Oprah, No Chris Mathews and No Geraldo
Rivera. No Sean Penn, No Barbara Striesand, No Hollywood types to be found.

Nope, we just melted the snow for water. Sent out caravans of SUV’s to pluck people out of snow engulfed cars. The truck drivers pulled people out of snow banks and didn’t ask for a penny.

One of ‘Austin’s Indisputable Facts of the Universe’ is that the Democrat Party is the party of slavery. It was the party of the Confederacy, of the southern plantation system, of Jim Crow, of the Ku Klux Klan. It caused the deaths of 640,000 Americans in its struggle to keep its slaves.

It survives today by addicting its foolish adherents to government handouts—that is, taking tax money from the productive class and giving it to the non-productive class, all in exchange for votes. (“Forty acres and a mule!”) Welfare, Social Security, the minimum wage, health care—all Ponzi schemes that promise something for nothing. Katrina showed what this addiction does to human dignity. All those victims of wind and wave were really victims of the Democrat Party—slaves one and all, pitiful chattel that had surrendered any ability to care for themselves once disaster struck.

And of course these well-adjusted slaves re-elected one of their handlers, Democrat Ray Nagin. They deserve to get him good and hard. He was the very one who herded them into that dreadful stadium in the Katrina aftermath. There his charges waited like the cattle they had become for the government to come and save them.

You say, “Austin, you damn Republican brute! Where is your sympathy?” I answer that it is for those who have not willingly voted themselves into servitude under the Democrats. If you change masters then look to him for solace. If you willingly enter the slave pen then that is where your sustenance will come.

And to all of those who believe that government should supply its citizens with food, housing, health care, retirement and education, my response is to remind them that every prison and plantation has supplied these since Cain and Abel.

The answer to such slavery is the same as it has always been. It is the answer of Spartacus. It is embedded in the 2nd Amendment.

And guess which political party seeks to destroy the 2nd Amendment? If you said ‘the Democrats’ then move to the head of the class. No slaver wishes to see either its slaves or its potential slaves able to defend themselves against the encroachment of government sponsored servitude.

Oh…Ted Kennedy is a 2nd Amendment hater. As is Pelosi, Reid, Kerry, Hillary, Gore and most of the other slavers of the Democrat Party.

Mitt Romney is having a bit of a problem. He wants to be the Republican Party candidate for president. He claims the Reagan mantle of conservatism so as to place himself to the right of libertine Giuliani and media flake John McCain. Ah…but there are some small details from his past. He has been a supporter of special privileges for sodomites. Yes, I know he wanted to gain political power in Massachusetts, a state known for its slavish devotion to the latest liberal fads.

But to now claim that he really, really holds Godly principles might be too much for those voters who actually do hold them. Such voters are called ‘Evangelicals’ or ‘conservative Christians’ or something similar. I am a card-carrying member of same. We want our candidates to be rock-solid and immutable, as constant as the Northern Star. That is why we loved Reagan. To read his writings from the 1960s and then to watch him act while president was to witness just that sort a man.

Let this be a lesson to Republicans. We are supposed to have unchanging principles. It is expected of us. That is one of the reasons why the media and academia hates us so. We of course revel in their hatred. They are pagans, after all. We would be very concerned if these barbarians supported us.

Romney traded principles for power. Now he wants his principles back in order to have yet more power.

There is one real conservative in the race, though. He is Sam Brownback. He is described as ‘a fiscally conservative, pro-life, anti-gay marriage, evangelical Christian turned Roman Catholic.’ Beat that, Romney.

At least Brownback will not have to worry that the current president—I think his name is Bush, though I have not heard from him in a while—might support any wishy-washy opponent such as another Arlen Specter over Pat Toomey. No one wants Bush to support him. Old George has become the lamest of ducks. The reasons lie not in the stars but in George himself.

No such problem over principles exists for William Jefferson, who just won re-election in Louisiana. He was caught with $90,000 of cold cash—literally, as the ill-gotten gain was stashed in his freezer. He abused his privileges during Katrina to save some of his own property while his constituents suffered through flood and thievery. In an earlier time this fine specimen of a public servant would have been sent to the big house. Now he is simply going to the House.

So to all you Louisiana voters who wanted this fellow as your guy in Washington, you deserve to get him good and hard.

The well-fed Frank Rich over at the New York Times is all giddy. This brave soul finally musters the courage to say, “The actual reality is that we have lost in Iraq.” Hey Frank, who is this ‘we?’ You are no more representative of America than is John Kerry. You and your ‘newspaper of record’ have consistently lied and obfuscated and invented. Your positions have placed American servicemen in deadly peril and have betrayed this nation. Come on, fess up: You are delighted that America might actually lose.

The Jew-hating, anti-American, permanently corrupt and dictator infested UN has begun a crab-walk, backing down on its rabid support of the global warming junk science. This theory was always goof-ball, a part and parcel of the entire environmental religion of anti-Western, anti-Christian, anti-rational earth worshipping pantheism. Liars concocted it, fools supported it and children were scared by it.

At last the UN found a problem it could not blame on Israel.

(Update: I revised part of the above as I made a claim about Joe Lieberman based on my 53 year old memory. Alas, I could not find verification for it.)

Abu Ayyub al-Masri heads the Iraqi branch of al-Qaida. He has something against the White House. He would like to blow it to smithereens.

The al-Qaida army has 12,000 fighters in Iraq, and they have vowed to die for God’s sake. … We will not rest from our Jihad until … we have blown up the filthiest house – which is called the White House.

Then let’s make a deal: the White House for Mecca. And I’ll throw in Congress too.

And so what if these spittle-flecked Islamic killers actually did blow up the White House? How would we respond?

Elton John has taken a break from fisting, rimming and composing pop doggerel to attack religion—meaning Christianity. Showing his sublime expertise in Theology the chubby sodomite held forth.

I think religion has always tried to turn hatred towards gay people. Religion promotes the hatred and spite against gays.

But there are so many people I know who are gay and love their religion. From my point of view I would ban religion completely.

Organised religion doesn’t seem to work. It turns people into really hateful lemmings and it’s not really compassionate.

Such philosophical twaddle would embarrass any schoolgirl.

The Democrats plan their pullout from Iraq.

Democrats, who won control of the U.S. Congress, said on Sunday they will push for a phased withdrawal of American troops from Iraq to begin in four to six months, but the White House cautioned against fixing timetables.

Who will win this upcoming power struggle between Congress and the White House? My money is on Bush.

And now for some good news:

The government believes Fidel Castro’s health is deteriorating and that the Cuban dictator is unlikely to live through 2007.

I will believe it when I see the worms.

And now for an ‘X’ factor for the next Congress:

Sen. Joe Lieberman on Sunday repeated his pledge to caucus with Senate Democrats when the 110th Congress convenes in January, but refused to slam the door on possibly moving to the Republican side of the aisle.

That would make the senate 50-50, giving Cheney the tie vote and Republicans effective control of that august body.

Memo to Joe: Just Do It.

Update: Captain Ed ruminates over a Jumpin’ Joe:

If he switches parties, he delivers control of the Senate to the GOP for the next two years, and makes Dick Cheney a very busy man. It forces the Democrats to carefully consider Lieberman when determining policy, especially on the war. It might force the Democrats to escalate efforts to get a Republican to cross the aisle, which would neutralize Lieberman.

All the media foreplay about that senator from Illinois Barack Obama sure does entertain. It is a real dog-and-pony show, all smoke and mirrors. Obama hints at running for president in 2008, but what he is really after is the vice-presidential nomination on Hillary’s ticket. But when rumors begin to leak out that Obama’s father might be a Moslem, look out.

Obama is a lightweight, a pretty face and nothing more. He is inexperienced, speaks in the usual Democrat boilerplate and says nothing new about anything. It embarrasses to read his thoughts on foreign policy.

Obama is getting all the media play right now so that the Dems can shore up the black vote. It is pure carpetbaggery, like Hillary moving to New York and becoming a Yankees fan.

The Republican ticket is still up for grabs. My favorite is Romney-Condi. It has a nice ring to it.

Do Americans want a ‘Round Two’ of the Clinton circus? Do they desire another series of scandals and perversions and treasons? Short answer: No.

Betsy Newmark asks

But have either Obama or Hillary Clinton accomplished anything in their lives that would be a basis for calling them potentially excellent executives?

Another short answer: No. Any body politic where such creatures as Clinton and Obama are considered top candidates for high office is a very sick one.

Why the shock and awe about CNN filming the sniper death of an American? That media outlet is only continuing its assault upon America that it began years ago. I am sure that AP and Reuters and all the rest of that flotsam are envious they did not think of it first. Watch for more such pornography as one and all jockey for more and higher outrage in attempts to one-up everyone else.

The solution to such a media-terrorist alliance is a simple one. Have the Iraqi government issue arrest warrants for all members of CNN in country and send these ‘journalists’ to an Iraqi prison for the duration. As for Reuters, just shoot those guys on sight.

If the media wish to act as enemy combatants they should be treated as enemy combatants.

The fact that the Bush administration has done nothing about the obvious treason from our media just encourages them. This is not rocket science. The effect of seeing Pinch dangling from a gibbet would be salutary.

So Ford lost almost 6 billion—yes, billion—dollars last year. The reason will not show on any flow chart from Harvard Business School. Ford advertised extensively to homosexuals of both genders. I have seen the commercials and they disgust. Now, Ford has ridden for some time on its reputation as redneck transport for the ‘good ol’ boys’ in the South. So let me ask you: How do Southerners and Okies and Texans and rednecks feel about driving a truck whose marketing appeals to sexual perverts and San Francisco bath house habitués?

Ford is finished. Its constituent parts will be sold off to GM and others.

Memo to those imbeciles at Ford: God will not be mocked. Neither will Texans.

Odd headline:

1,500 cruise ship passengers without toilets for ‘three days’

Just curious about where all those people went to use the facilities. Actually, I don’t want to know.

That ship must have exhibited quite a stench! But since she was off the coast of Morocco no one would have noticed. I have been to Morocco, and the bathroom facilities there are best left undescribed. I never found soap in one of those places either.

It has been 1400 years since Mohammed marched out of the desert, and Moslems still have not mastered the basics of plumbing.

What is so difficult about plumbing anyway? Come on all you Moslem guys, all you need to know is that water flows downhill, payday is Friday and please don’t put your fingers in your mouth.

Come to think of it, just what have Moslems mastered in 1400 years of Islamic ‘civilization’? Throat slitting of bound women, yes. Sending their children off to the oblivion of the suicide bomb, yes. Destroying things they could never build, yes. Spreading poverty and hatred wherever Mohammed hangs his turban, yes.

Islam is a huge suicide bomb that hopes for nothing but to take as many civilized folk with it as it detonates.

In nearly every war on the planet one or both parties is Islamic.

The rotting carcass of Islam stinks up the entire globe. One hopes Western civilization can muster enough bleach to clean up the mess.

Yeah, more ‘Short Takes.’ I must get to the 8 AM Mass. I can hardly stand the music at the late Mass. So here goes…

Forget jail. Forget psychologists. Forget all that mumbo-jumbo of the therapeutic culture and touchy-feely liberal mish-mash of what passes for penology today. Here is how Texans deal with purveyors of porn:

About a dozen residents of a Dallas neighborhood beat a man after reports that he had been showing pornographic pictures to children on a playground, police said.
Brandon Scott Burke, 20, showed up Wednesday at an Oak Cliff apartment complex and was alleged to have shown a magazine with pictures of naked women to some of the children playing there, police said.

When one of the mothers saw him and asked Burke what he was doing, he tried to run and the woman started screaming, said Elizabeth Williams, the mother of another child. According to a police report, Burke said about 15 men “jumped him and hit him repeatedly on the face with their fists.” He suffered minor injuries, police said.

Minor injuries? Damn it!

How do we get to ‘peace on earth, goodwill toward men’ in America’s cities? One town in Idaho has it figured out:

Proposed Ordinance asks Each Household to Have a Firearm

Of course, about everyone there already has a gun that works. But still.

Chavez is paranoid. Or running scared. Or maybe he is just simply an idiot. Choose one or all. He thinks Bush will kill him.

President Hugo Chavez accused his American counterpart George W. Bush overnight of ordering his assassination for calling the US leader the devil during his speech at the United Nations this week.

Yes, yes. I know that assassination is a bit much. But still.

Let’s call it ‘life among the ruins.’ Nasrallah (remember him?) held a victory rally in some dismal little field in Beirut.

The rally was being held at a barren 37-acre lot about a mile from the guerrilla group’s flattened headquarters.

I love the adjective ‘flattened.’ Perfect. Picture a spittle-flecked pajama clad caveman jumping up and down among rubble and you will get the idea. Oh, this fellow claims to have 20,000 missiles.

Hizbollah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said on Friday his Lebanese guerrillas still had more than 20,000 rockets after their month-long war with Israel and no army in the world could disarm them.

No army in the world? Really?

File this one under ‘don’t know much about history.’ Headlines:

Germany ready for a gay leader? Many say yes

He is silver-haired, handsome and hugely popular. And Klaus Wowereit may well be on his way to becoming the world’s first gay leader.

Wowi, as his supporters know him, has been voted in for a second term as the left-wing Mayor of Berlin. He is also being groomed by his Social Democratic Party as its nomination for the chancellorship at the next general election in less than four years.

Excuse me, but he is called ‘Wowi’? And his party is ‘grooming him’? No one could make this stuff up. (And I was told that Germans had no sense of humor!)

And besides, Germany has already had homosexual leaders. Hitler was a leather-boy during his time in Vienna. His best friend was Ernst Röhm, another leather-wearing type who spent some quality time with the future fuehrer. Röhm became the leader of Germany’s storm troopers, the Sturmabteilung. But he and Adolf were not alone in their love of the love that dared not show its face.

Ernst Röhm was one of the most prominent of a number of early Nazi party members who was a suspected homosexual, and his homosexuality was ultimately the pretext used for his removal during the purge of the SA. Having been outed in 1925, however, Röhm made little attempt to hide his sexuality. Despite Hitler’s pretense of shock upon discovering his deputy’s sexual orientation, he had in fact long known that Röhm was homosexual.

And since you brought it up:

To all those artsy-type libertine liberals who believe this world would be a better place if only artists, vegetarians, animal lovers, writers, drug experimenters, poets, the sexually adventurous and philosophers ruled, we do have an example of such a kingdom. It was called the Third Reich.

1. Adolph Hitler was an painter, designer and writer. He was also vegetarian and did not drink. His life in Austria before WW I was one of…well, the kinds of activities that make historians blush.

2. Joseph Goebbels was a poet and philosopher.

3. Albert Speer was an architect and writer.

4. Heinrich Himmler was a philosophical mystic.

5. Herman Goering was an art lover and drug addict.

6. Ernst Röhm was a sexual pervert and an aficionado of S&M.

7. Julius Streicher was a teacher and journalist.

8. Alfred Rosenberg was an architect and newspaper editor

So let’s see: journalists, sodomites, editors, drug users, vegetarians—sounds like the makeup of the Democrat Party.

But aren’t these the guys who are always calling Bush Hitler?

Tempus fugit. That is the popular thing to say. But does time really fly? No. Truth is, time is a construct, a malleable system in which stuff happens. Time only exists in the sensible world. It has no basis at all in Heaven. Or in Hell. Like tears and pain and suffering, time will vanish once one gets to Heaven. We get an idea of this when we are under some extraordinary calamity or inexpressible joy. Then time moves sideways, backwards, up and down—if we are aware of it at all. We all know old people who have that look upon their faces of angelic youth, as if they are seeing things beyond time, seeing something just over the horizon of which the rest of us are blind. Time does not exist for them. One day it will not exist for us. All must face this fact, either in this world or the next. So prepare now.

The Federal Government has forced all public schools—yes, force is the right verb. All governments use force. You knew this, yes?—to dedicate September 17 to something called ‘Constitution Day.’ All teachers must on that day talk about the US Constitution. OK, no problem. I teach, therefore I am—and I taught the Constitution in every class. For good measure I threw in the Declaration of Independence as well. One thing became clear—it has always been clear—how ‘God-soaked’ these documents are. He is everywhere in them. They are shot through and through with the God of the Bible. Those who would toss God out of the classroom must first start with the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution.

In the past 100 years the United States of America has freed the following nations: France—twice—Belgium—twice—Italy, Japan, England, Germany, Holland, Korea, the Philippines, Afghanistan, Iraq, Kuwait, Russia, Poland, Hungary and many others. The fact that some of these nations abused what Americans poured out their blood for is irrelevant. What other nation in the world is in the business of freedom? How many nations has Russia freed? France? Germany? Japan? None, none, none and none. Truly Americans are the greatest people in history. You disagree? Well then, there are upwards of 200 countries out there in the world. Pick one more suited to your mentality and leave. No hard feelings. Goodbye and good luck.

Iran is in the business of slavery. It has been since the first kings of Persia 2500 years ago. Right now its grubby leader Ahmadinejad is at the UN spewing forth his views. He hates the US, but he hates the Jews even more. He and his nation offer nothing to the world but promises of blood, terror and holocaust. In reality, these are the main Iranian exports. Ahmadinejad says that nothing can stop Iran from gaining nuclear weapons. George Bush says that Iran will not be allowed to get them. One of these men will be proved right. Which one?

A common excuse from every student who ever lived is “I did not have time for my homework.” My answer is: “So you have less than 24 hours in a day?” One Indisputable Fact of the Universe is that we must all answer for the time we spend on whatever we do. It is about choosing. That student says he did not have enough time. What he really means is that he chose to do something else with his time. That is his problem, not mine. Like that student, I have enough time every day to do what God commands. I choose not to. But that is my problem, not God’s. And like that student who will earn an ‘F’ I will also earn something.

Alas! Time might fly but I can do little more than crawl. A regular prayer of mine is that God grant me more hours in the day. Some short offerings of wisdom or foolishness as I contemplate This, That and the Other:

Colin Powell is finally going public and coming clean about his loathing of ex-boss George Bush. Witness the obvious smarminess, pettiness and meanness of the Armitage affair. So what is the consummate bureaucrat Powell up to? Answer: He is angling to be McCain’s choice for vice-president. You read it here first.

Democrats really, really hate Bush. They hate him more than they love their country. But truth be told they do not love their country much either. What Democrats really love is power. Because they do not have enough of it—by their own lights—they are still going through withdrawal after eight glorious years of Clinton. Like a coke addict denied his powder they rail and rant, threaten and scream, and subsume themselves in spittle-flecked loathing. Boy how they miss that loveable thong-snapping, fellatio-addicted adolescent president of theirs!

And God be praised that no other Clinton will inhabit the Oval Office. Please forget any fantasy that it will be Hillary in 2008. She is a screechy nag, a real harridan. Only metrosexual, feminized and sexually confused males will vote for Hillary, real men will not—no matter what they tell their wives afterward. If you do not understand this you do not understand men.

And another thing is that women despise Hillary too. One secret of women is that they cannot stand a woman who dominates her husband. If you do not understand this you do not understand women.

And forget Rudy. When the campaign for president begins in earnest McCain will trot out that photo of Giuliani dressed in drag and that will be that. Here is the photo, one that will certainly terrorize the terrorists—they will laugh themselves to death.

Besides, except for the war Rudy is in all essentials a libertine Democrat—pardon the redundancy—a slim, trim and more vicious version of Ted Kennedy.

I would not want Rudy for an enemy. But I would not want him for a friend either.

And forget McCain. He is a media darling who despises Christians and conservatives. Democrats will vote for their own ticket, not for McCain. So please tell me how McCain can win in 2008? He will not even win the nomination.

Possible Republican dream-ticket: Romney-Condi. If Romney is nominated look for the media to begin an assault upon Mormonsim. 

What you say? That the media will not begin an attack upon Mormonism? After all, they did not attack Judaism when Lieberman was Gore’s vice-president nominee. True, but irrelevant. The media would never attack any Democrat. And Lieberman is as much an observant Jew as Howard Dean is an observant Christian.

Romney is the real thing, a true believer in his faith. And the media will hate him for that.  But then they hate everything outside of sodomy, infanticide and treason.

Democrats are real tough guys. True, they cower and pee on themselves when faced with a war against turbaned men who slice the throats of bound women. But they are muscular indeed when facing the awesome power of a baby in its mother’s womb.

And these bravos also make war against Wal-Mart. They will once again be defeated, probably in the ladies’ clothing section.

If there comes another civil war to this great Republic, the liberals will have sodomites, feminists, San Francisco bartenders, vegetarians, tree-huggers and the Kennedy clan on their side. The conservatives will have gun owners, the military, Texas and Oklahoma on theirs. Do the math.

I see that the well-fed Michael Moore has a new movie out called Sicko. Is it his autobiography?

Headline:

Pope’s speech stirs Muslim anger

But Muslims are always angry. So how is this news? Besides, popes have been making Muslims mad since the 7th century. It is part of their job.

Headline:

Men are more intelligent than women, claims new study

OK guys, I have no idea if it this true, but if you ever, ever mention that study to any woman whosoever you will resign yourselves to sleeping alone for the rest of your miserable lives. Your only company will be cheap prostitutes and the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue. You have been warned. So shut up.

Speaking of which, why cannot those two Democrat ex-presidents shut up? Carter and Clinton traipse around the globe slandering their nation in every foreign land. They have no class at all. How many times have Republican ex-presidents done such?

But then those two creeps—one a pinch-faced and toothy pretend Calvinist, the other a sensual weakling at the beck and call of the nearest pair of panties—slandered their nation while in office. Why should we expect something different now that they are out?

Apropos that attack in Syria against the US Embassy: Come on folks, this is not rocket science. It was staged, a phony baloney act cooked up between Tehran and Damascus.

What about all that media-generated hullabaloo how the Democrats will retake Congress this November? No they won’t. All that hint-hinting by Americans toward the Dems was just teasing. When Americans want the real thing they go with Republicans.
