“One of the most often repeated liberal laments about American foreign policy under President George W. Bush is that America is more hated around the world than ever. As if a country being loved is evidence of its moral virtue.”

Well, maybe not, but it’s not exactly clear how “being hated” is evidence of whatever he thinks “moral virtue” is, and it surely makes it harder to do what we’d like.

“When a man’s ways please the LORD, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him.” – Proverbs, 16:7

So what does it say when a man’s ways makes even his allies to shun him?

Hell yeah, LS, rock on, m’man. We gave too much too soon, and we got nothing but a laugh and a cry. Too many regrets, and not enough I’d really change. Now? Maybe we can help them understand, a little.

Maybe not….

L.S./M.F.T., I like your blog, even though I don’t get the acronym (hey, my excuse is (a) I’m Australian, and (b) I’m a cat). Damn fine writing there, that man. Carry on.

I get such a kick outta gasbags like Prager. The same wingnuts he’s preaching to a choir full of, see mealey-mouthed over-wordy blobs like him, right there with the DFH’s in their pecking order. They’d just as soon skin him as look at him.

I wonder if Dennis knows that and that’s why his message is so narrow? “We’re your friends… We won’t harm you after the ~~revolution~~ election. I’m not one of the BAD people who towed away your trailer. Those people look, talk and dress like me but aren’t me. People like me are important to your future!”

Is it possible? He’s propagandizing the unwashed masses with the Jedi Mind Trick as a form of both self-protection and a defensive strategy for limp-wrists that’ve never done a lick of work in their lives except for either pushing pencils on a desk or writing a whole host of, ‘Let’s you and him fight’ articles for over 30 years while the majority of the wingnut brigades are blue-collar and hate office types by the bushel.

Can’t hear you. Too much cowbell. And shame.

Righteous Bubba: I was referring to the second half of the first line of the song. It didn’t work.

Oh, I get it. HTML; left carat; etc.

“A little false-equivalency cleanup.” There. Sheesh.

Just for the record, I really did look at the preview that last time and it somehow posted wrong. Ahem. “>A

That would be a big fat guy to the West of the mountain.

And, of course, we all want more cowbell. Which is one of the bands I still play quite a bit.

Hang on a minute—let’s do little false-equivalency cleanup here. Journey had their moments (“Anytime,” mainly), and Boston had a few more than that, but neither was fit to carry ELO’s shiny metallic space-fabric jock.

I don’t know what you mean.

This is one of those jokes that is not a joke really because it makes no sense, but everyone who loves the song starts imagining the intro cowbell and thinks “fuck yeah!” and ignores the fact that I’m really saying nothing.

Hey, a while ago I made myself a CD for self-deafening purposes and I am loving Pentagram. The first time I heard Forever My Queen I was just baffled at how heavy and stupid it was. Hilarious and completely satisfying rock.

I’d be dating myself if we started talking about the dinosaurs of rock.

But that’s okay, since I’m a pretty cheap date.
