Yes, we have no mangoes.

 
 

Does the link from C&M count as sub-mangoes? ‘Cause I went for them and they’re actually pretty tasty.

Eric Erickson (@ewerickson), Editor-in-Chief of RedState didn’t just toss off that gem. He wrote it, then deleted it, then re-wrote and re-sent it adding the proper hashtags (“LMRM” = Let Me Repeat Myself, “TCOT” = Top Conservatives on Twitter, “RS” = RedState). Made sure he got it just right.

It’s attention to detail like that which makes Ewick such a leader on the Right. *gack*

 
 

Juan “Piss My Pants When I See Muslims” Williams is now jumping on the defunding NPR bandwagon.

Let me know how that works out for you, wankers.

No! No! NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

Two percent of our income? What’ll we do? God no, please don’t throw us into that briar patch!

 
 

From the comments section of the article;

Of course, if you only count the Catholics who actually take their faith seriously, we vote more like 90% Republican.

There can be no doubt that the Catholic position on abortion and gay marriage is quite Republican. (Or, should I say, what the Republican position would be if those things were actual policy questions rather than red meat thrown to the base every two years to make sure they show up at the polls).

Now let’s look at the Church’s position on everything else.

Death penalty; liberal.
Welfare state; liberal.
Universal health care; liberal (it’s a “right,” no less).
The war in Iraq; liberal.
Torture; liberal.
Israel/Palestine conflict; liberal.

One could frankly make a much more compelling argument, just going by the numbers, that it’s Republican Catholics who’re taking their religion unseriously. Of course, “seriously” to them means chest thumping about how much everyone else sucks.

 
 

One commenter calls us “childish”. Truly, I am wounded. Touche, nutters. Touche.

Also, we hate women, blacks and Jews. I learn something new every day.

Interestingly, they are also 100% True Scotsmen.

 
 

Also, we hate women, blacks and Jews. I learn something new every day.

Those of “us” who are Jewish, black, or endowed with two X chromosomes (e.g. the significant majority of all three groups) will be thrilled to hear that.

 
 

“All Catholics Are Pedophiles” — The Democrats’ Closing Argument

“I am a liar who makes up quotes because I’m a capriphile, and not those sissy nanny goats but real gruff and tumble billy goats SO HORNY” — Erick Erickson’s life story

 
 

NPR should set up loudspeakers all along the southern border, it would be a more effective deterrent than Boeing’s demi-buttocked effort AND cut down on the need for pledge drives.

 
 

Guys, guys, guys. When he called that justice a goat-fucking child molester, he was joking. It was obviously a joke because there was no basis in reality and it wasn’t funny.

Whereas when libs talk about the Catholic Church protecting child molesters, there’s both evidence AND a lot of the time it’s funny.

Get the difference? yak-fuckers? Ha! See what I did there?

 
 

“All Catholics Are Pedophiles” — The Democrats’ Closing Argument

Or at least aid and abet pedophilia.

Nice walkback there. Still, you could set up a Glenn Beck-style blackboard chart of a shadowy child-molesting organization and see who was contributing money to it…

 
 

When he called that justice a goat-fucking child molester, he was joking.

The first time he did it, or the second?

 
 

I’m more inclined to keep my despise fine-tuned: I only hate black Jewish women … with extra fingers or toes … who are left-handed & wear a monocle … & only on Tuesdays.
Focus is everything!

Shorter EE: Republicans good, Democrats ba-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-ad!

 
 

Yeah, well I only hate those people if they’re also Aries and have a wooden leg hand carved out of humpback whalebone by a clone of Hitler.

This worldwide scandal with thousands of victims going back decades – why are we even talking about it?

 
 

Whew, that’s a relief. I’m a Virgo.

 
 

His premise is nonsense. Only male Catholics are all child molesters. Kind of a hot goat, BTW.

 
 

So Erick what are you doing to stop the molestation of more children?

Beside declaring it’s a more horrible crime to condemn a pedophile than it is to ignore decades of felony assaults?

 
 

I can’t keep my hate specific. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: I don’t trust the damn Dutch. They think sooooooo special, with their tulips and super-cool shoes.

 
 

We make fine tape too.

Way off topic, but allow me to attention-whore and bring up a new game I’ve invented.

in honor of the Shilla from Wasilla’s twin skills of (a) being completely unable to understand the meaning of the word “censorship” and (b) being completely unable to speak/write a coherent sentence in the English language, I’m playing Sarah Palin NPR Mad Libs. As you’ll recall, Sarah, Plain and Stupid Tweeted that the Juan Williams thing was “censorship.” She also said of the backlash, “This is what happens when the Constitution shakes her fist.”

Since that is impossible to understand, I decided I could have some fun with it. Here’s how it works:

“This is what happens when (major historical document or treaty) (engages in douchebaggy and/or violent behavior).”

My first salvo:

“This is what happens when the Declaration of Independence cuts you off in traffic.”

Try it!

Hey, now…

I’ll play…

I’m finding this Photoshop to be quite creepy.

 
 

So, teh Archdiocese of St. Louis has a problem with pedophile priests including at least one that was working at parochial schools after the Church paid a settlement for his child molestation. That’s pretty darned bad news.

Ed Martin didn’t officially start working as a lawyer for the Archdiocese until after that settlement was made. He served as Director of the Human Rights Office, which probably has no say in which priests get assigned to which parishes. He was straight out of law school at the time, but already marked as one of the Church’s golden boys by John Paul II no less.

I would say that on the balance of probabilities, Ed Martin had no clue about what the Archdiocese was doing with its pedophile priests – but considering the way most folks feel about the potential sexual abuse of their children, I’m not surprised that the question was asked.

Is this the same as yelling “all Catholics are pedophiles!”? Absolutely. One of the founding principles of Teh Leftsism is that All Catholics Are Pedophiles, it says so right here in this secrit manual of eleetest leftsism.

 
 

Oh, he is so FACED now.

In the language of 1970s Queens*, SNAAAAG.

*As opposed to 1970s queens, 1970s Queen, and 1970 pound coins.

 
 

“SNAG”? Really? Never heard that one.

 
 

Given Ed Martin’s job, I would have expected it to have been his business to know what the archdiocese was doing with its pedophile priests. He was director of the St. Louis archdiocese’s human rights office from some time in 1998 till some time in late 2002/early 2003.

At the very least, when the issue of Father Valentine surfaced in 2002, he should have done more than stand around with his hands in his pockets.

If the allegations were “unsubstantiated,” why did the archdiocese pay off the family?

 
 

“SNAG”? Really? Never heard that one.

I really think it never made it out of Queens.

 
 

OK, I’m writing this because the past few days I’ve been so tired it’s been like being in a coma. This is helping me stay awake.

So anyway, thinking about names makes me happy. Hubby puts the keibosh on 95% of the names I dig. No “Regan” for me. No “Winifred.” *pout* No “Greer.” No “Arden.” So it’s been relatively easy narrowing this down. Here are the very few names we agree upon:

Charlotte
Aubrey
Gwendolyn
Belle
Vivian

Geez. I think that’s it.

 
 

oh jeez, VS, that’s pretty much a JanusNode bleg.

I was iffy on Gwendolyn to begin with…

It seems like this should be easier.

 
 

Every time Sarah Palin says something stupid, an Angel falls screaming into Hell.

I think it’s more like, every time yadda yadda, a Devil rubs its eyes, says, “I’ve been supporting that?”, and rushes up to St. Peter crying, “I repent!”

 
 

Ya know I wanna say Steve is a parody troll…but what if it’s just a really drunk realSteve?

 
 

I like Charlotte and it has lots of cute nicknames. Aubrey is a boy’s name. Vivian … only if you want to bring up the memory of Fred & Ethel in anybody over the age of 10.

In any case, if my experience is any guide, you’ll both think of the perfect name six months later when it’s too late to change. So go with something not weird.

 
 

Castration is very familiar to those of us who are from the Southern agrarian culture. Castration is used in animal husbandry and for other reasons. Castration, gelding, neutering, orchiectomy or orchidectomy is any action, surgical, chemical or otherwise, by which a biological male loses use of the testes. This causes sterilization, i.e. prevents reproduction; it also greatly reduces the production of certain hormones, such as testosterone. In animal husbandry, such an procedure was used to produce desired qualities in the animal to make it gain more weight, etc.

Castration, historically, has roots early in human history. Castration was frequently used in some cultures, such as in Europe, the Middle East, India or China, for religious or social reasons. After battles, winners castrated their captives or the defeated in order to symbolize victory and demonstrate power. Also, their enemies would not be able to reproduce themselves. Castrated men – eunuchs – were often admitted to special social classes. Eunuchs were also often used to guard harems. Castration also figured in a number of religious cults, also known as castration cults. A primary result is castration abolishes the ability to reproduce. Castrated men lose some of their masculine traits and become more feminine.

There is also the castration of beliefs or writings, which occurs when parts are removed or excised to take away what may be considered objectionable. The act of tearing pages from a book that is considered politically incorrect would be called castration as well. The wholesale rejection of any pro-Southern manuscript for publishing is a form of castration. The Constitutional guarantee of freedom of speech is thus rejected for real Southern people! There is a serious question to be contemplated, “Are some Southern people submitting to politically correct castration or teaching a castrated history of the South?” Reconstruction has tried to castrate the supposedly conquered Southern people, and thus, once and for all, end a Christian culture along with the testimony of its history. There has been much more at stake than a war being lost. This is very evident in the fact that ideologically the Southern history and way of life is meant for extinction. Who hears anything about the villainous and bloody administration of Lincoln? The eradication of the true history of the South – castration – is even at this hour the object of many Southern institutions of learning, many liberal religious institutions and many Southern writers. Hopefully, there is no one like this among the Sons of Confederate Veterans who has joined the band, but don’t hold your breath. Many Southern people do not want to be considered as having a connection with Southern heritage, so they eulogize Lincoln, change their accent, embrace modern abolitionism, accept revisionist history, deny the authenticity of the Holy Bible, apologize in essence for being white, and any number of things that might be thought pleasing to the reprobates who are castrating the South!

Are we to be partisan as Christians and Confederates? Are partisan Christians and Confederate descendents racist for standing up for what is right? Certainly, God teaches us to be partisan. He told us we were to love Him with all our hearts, souls, minds and our neighbor as ourselves. He told us we were to have no gods before Him. He told us that there is only one way into His presence and that is through Jesus Christ, His Son, who is the way, the truth and the life and no man comes unto the Father except through Him. He instructs us to love our wives as Christ loved the church and gave Himself for it. He told us if we provided not for our own we are worse than infidels. He revealed that His Word is the only acceptable guide for faith and practice. Thus, we should love God and love no other. We are to love our wives as we love no other women. We are to love and correct our children in a way we love no others. We are to follow the Bible as we follow no other book. We are to love our forefathers as we love no others. We are to love our race as we love no other. We are to love our local church as we love no other. We are to love our heritage as we love no other, and this depiction could be extended. There are myriad’s of partisan instructions in the sacred Scripture. However, if we listen to the humanists, the politically correct and the neocons then all of this partisan teaching is racism. It appears that the historic Biblical hermeneutic has been replaced by the humanist, egalitarian, French Revolution hermeneutic. It is the hermeneutic of egalitarian love.

Now the abolitionist agenda is being forced on Christian people of the South, declaring that they cannot be Biblical or partisan, but must favor the extermination of their heritage, must submit to the removal of the moral standards of their ancestors and should hate their race or extol another above it. Have you been thus castrated? Or, are you reproducing your Biblical and Southern beliefs? Do you have any concrete convictions that are non-negotiable?

This new wave of political correctness aimed at the castration of the Southern people will lead to the impugning of our holy God, the rejection of the deity of Christ, the compromising of the inspiration of Scripture, the abandonment of the sanctity of marriage, the replacement of the biblical norm of the home, the redefining of the masculinity of men, the removal of the separation of nations, the dishonor of our fathers and mothers, and the eradication of our Confederate heritage.

Did God divide the nations into linguistic groups, racial groups and cultural groups? Was it God’s idea to assert this as a corrective of man’s sinful intentions? Did God in the Book of Genesis give us the table of nations? Was that His idea? Has God rescinded His actions? Obviously, we have as much, if not more reason today, to believe that men are as depraved and disobedient to God as then. Regeneration does not remove these divisions, but it is the divine bestowal of life to dead sinners.

Are we going to submit to castration? Are we going to obey God or men? Are we in favor of honoring our Southern heritage or not? Are you ashamed of being from the South? Have the descendants of Confederates been castrated, or are they undergoing such treatment or are they submitting to such out of imposed false guilt feelings? Remember the admonition of the fifth commandment, “Honour thy father and thy mother,” even if they were Southern or Confederate. This is not optional!

Keep asking here and you’re going to end up with a girl named POOP.

 
 

Aubrey is actually considered gender-neutral these days, as with many boys’ names.

I definitely think “not weird” is a good criterion, but I also place a premium on originality.

 
 

Also, vivian is just a lovely name that never should have gone out of style.

 
 

“Keep asking here and you’re going to end up with a girl named POOP.”

Aubrey. Unless she grows up to have a beard and everybody calls her Beardsley, I think that’s a winner.

 
 

My kid is named “Ian,” which is a pretty neutral, not-trendy name; however, for kicks he has two middle names: James and Sparhawk. Sparhawk is an ancestral name, BTW. So you can go with ‘Jane’ as long as it’s “Jane Khyber Ralston Vacuumslayer” or similar.

I’ve always liked “Ian”. Always.

 
 

I didn’t realize you knew him! Small world.

How about Morticia? That is a pretty name for a girl.

Is this the same as yelling “all Catholics are pedophiles!”? Absolutely. One of the founding principles of Teh Leftsism is that All Catholics Are Pedophiles, it says so right here in this secrit manual of eleetest leftsism.

There’s a secret manual of leftism?

Is there, like, a Masonic ritual I have to go through, or a pagan sacrifice to be performed, or secret union dues I have to pay? Inquiring minds want to know. And when you’re done with that, can you send me a link to this all-encompassing liberal media I keep hearing about? I’ve been looking everywhere for it.

 
 

Just don’t name the kid Sasquatch. Trust me on this.

Oh sure. It’s always wham bam thank you ma’am with your kind. I knew you wouldn’t take responsibility!

 
 

Seriously, though. Aubrey. You’ll thank me later.

I like that one, too. I really do. It’s original without being freakish.

 
 

Plus, it doesn’t shorten to anything. People name their kids something trendy like “Countryside” and right away the “side” gets dropped.

 
 

And then it gets shortened again — never mind.

 
 

Funny you should say that…in the book I bought it listed that name as “un-nickname-able.” Which I love!

Also…*guffawing at shortened “Countryside”*

 
 

oh jeez, VS, that’s pretty much a JanusNode bleg.

Oh, and Chris, the bit that stands out most to me about that douchy comment is the last bit.

Of course, if you only count the Catholics who actually take their faith seriously, we vote more like 90% Republican. Also, Hispanic Catholics tend to skew the numbers.

Implying, of course, that Hispanics aren’t serious Catholics.

 
 

Truculentandunreliable, this might be an Oz thing, but all the Charlottes I know cop ‘Charlotte the harlot’.

 
 

I mean vacuumslayer. fucking comments, how do they work!

 
TruculentandUnreliable
 

Lurker–Good point. I’m not sure if American kids know the word “harlot,” but it’s probably not worth risking.

Aubrey is pretty, but I’m afraid she’d always be called “Audrey.” Minor thing to being called a harlot though, I suppose.

 
 

I personally have always been partial to Gwen, Deidre or Jessica.

 
 

Also, Hispanic Catholics tend to skew the numbers.

Demographic FAIL. Hispanic Catholics are pretty solidly conservative and Until the Repubs decided that demonizing them was demanded by their Southern Strategy (updated), voted pretty heavily Republican.

 
 

One commenter calls us “childish”.

Uh oh, next he’ll be asking us to get into his van.

 
 

This is what happens when “To Serve Mankind” becomes the final punch line to the cosmically brief and brutish jape that is the human species.

 
 

Instead of Aubrey, how about Aurelia?

It was Julius Caesar’s mother’s name. Very sensible woman.

 
 

Doesn’t Aubrey shorten to Bri? Or is it intended to be Bray? Mrs and I are considering Evelyn.

Here’s a unique name: Division. Go with that!

 
 

Vassily-Trenchant Palin?

 
 

Jessica was also on our list. Maybe it still is. It makes me think of hot, hot Ms. Alba though, does that make it weird, or should I get past that?

 
 

Best to avoid any name that might conceivably be shouted by the DJ to announce the next stripper on stage.

Jessica? Iffy.

Evelyn? A safe, solid choice.

Yeah, those damn beaners, distorting the clear electoral will of white Catholics, who are the only ones that count.

 
 

“Hispanic Catholics are pretty solidly conservative and Until the Repubs decided that demonizing them was demanded by their Southern Strategy (updated), voted pretty heavily Republican.”

Actually zombie, they were a roughly even split in ’00 and ’04. It became 2 to 1 in ’06 and ’08 and I suspect will be closer to 75% in two weeks thanks to as you stated, the R’s deport the dirty mezzicans statergery.

Also Sharia Law is an awesome name.

 
 

This is what happens when the Universal Declaration of Human Rights fucks a stranger in the ass.

 
 

Hispanics tend to be anti-abortion and anti-gay rights but they also don’t like to be demonized as scum or get thrown in the clink for not having the proper papers with them. They are loco that way. Same with the muslims.

Hispanics tend to be anti-abortion and anti-gay rights but they also don’t like to be demonized as scum or get thrown in the clink for not having the proper papers with them. They are loco that way. Same with the muslims.

Actually, far more with the Muslims. The stereotypical Muslim American is socially conservative and upper-middle class, often in the small business sector around the Great Lakes or the Northeast. Right up through the 2,000 election, they were a reliable if tiny source of Republican votes. In fact, you’d have been hard-pressed to find a better-integrated minority. It’s only after the post-9/11 backlash that they went to the Democrats.

Christopher Caldwell’s Reflections on the Revolution: Read The Book—Ignore The Pamphlet!
 

Christopher Caldwell, who writes for The Weekly Standard and The Financial Times, has written Reflections on the Revolution in Europe: Immigration, Islam, and the West, a marvelously insightful and even courageous book about Muslim immigration to Europe. Unfortunately, Mr. Caldwell did not stop there. He included a pamphlet’s worth of foolish optimism about immigration to the United States—so foolish that it is hard to believe the same man who so neatly dissects the delusions and weaknesses of Europeans does not realize he is also describing American policy-makers.

Read the book—ignore the pamphlet. […]

That is a contemptible trick. And it doesn’t even work.

In his defense, Caldwell is writing in an age of terror, in which telling the truth is a firing offense. Still, he should have remained silent rather than denounce patriots who are doing the work he has the good sense to realize must be done.

This book is like a piece of Camembert that is just good enough to pick up and eat after it falls into the dirt. You eat it very carefully.

 
 

I did not share the sense of outrage that many of my conservative and patriotic friends expressed. I did not think Barack Obama intentionally sought to express disdain for our country or its hallowed traditions.

No CPAC invite for you!

 
 

I just suppose it’s a good thing it’s posting all this shit on a Saturday night, when NOBODY’S FUCKING READING IT ANYWAY.

 
 

They sure didn’t teach the Tea Baggers much about history or the constitution or civics back in their day.

 
 

“Machiavelli And His Machiavellian Ideas” is probably a better band name than “St Vincent And the Grenadines”, but it also strikes me that all of Machiavelli’s ideas were Machiavellian. Like if he were to say to Mrs. Machiavelli “Why don’t we go for a stroll on the Ponte Vecchio” that would be a Machiavellian idea, right? It’s weird. Like how telling someone to avoid worn-out cliches is Orwellian.

 
 

The Left has no idea who these people are and what is happening. The Left refers to them as “crazies” and “astroturf.” But these people are neither crazy nor astroturf. They are the millions of Americans who have awakened to and embraced the American idea. They are the Tea Party.

We know exactly who these people are, Troofus. And contrary to what conservative shills have been clamoring for months, simply being embraced by a lot of people doesn’t make them any less of a bunch of fucking loons, nor does it make them any less wrapped around Wall Street’s little finger.

Just because a million people stepped off the same cliff doesn’t mean it was a good idea to step off that cliff. That should be obvious even to a child.

 
 

I recalled Ronald Reagan’s Farewell Address. He warned of losing our heritage. “If we forget what we did, we will forget who we are,” he said. “Pill lady. Hello, pretty little birds.”

 
 

Fifty two weeks ago, I pointed out that the Democrats’ winning 2008 strategy–positioning Barack Obama to blacks as the black candidate the postracial candidate, to Asians and Hispanics as the minority candidate the postracial candidate, and to whites as the postracial candidate

Fixed.

Obama’s entire platform was postracial – that’s the only reason he could even get close to the White House. The black vote was never under any illusions that “a black candidate” could get anywhere near the White House even under the best of times.

 
 

Also, Tintin? Could you do us a favor and get rid of all this shit?

I mean, trolling’s one thing. Taking up this much bandwidth with copy-pasting is just spam, and deserves to be treated as such. Please brah?

Bottom line: U.S. immigration restriction is a relatively simple and sure way to restrict greenhouse gas emissions.

So what prevents troll emissions?

 
 

Re the ethnic thing;

Anything’s possible. The way things are going, one possibility is that the parties will indeed end up divided along racial lines; Republicans = white party, Democrats = Hispanic party, which by then will be a demographic large enough to challenge the white vote.

The stalemate will continue until America grows up again and remembers that ethnicity doesn’t actually matter. When that happens depends entirely on the white vote. Remember, when the Irish Italian Polish Jewish immigrants finally integrated in the mid-twentieth century, it wasn’t because they did anything differently – it was that the all-WASP snobs finally stopped treating them like bug-eyed monsters from outer space, and let them become full Americans in fact as well as law.

These people already want to integrate, or they wouldn’t be here. All they’re asking for is to be given the chance.

 
 

Ah, yes, Green Fascism, just what I wanted. Not.

People of a certain age and level of like life-experience believe they’re immortal: college students and alcoholics/addicts are the worst: they deep-down believe they’re exempt from the laws of physics and statistics that ironly govern everybody else. They’ll piss and moan your ear off if somebody else fucks with the rules, but they don’t deep down see themselves subject to them, the same rules. And they’re constitutionally unable to learn from anybody else’s experience: if some jaywalking B.U. student does get his car towed, your other student’s or addict’s response to this will be to ponder just what imponderable difference makes it possible for that other guy to get splattered or towed and not him, the ponderer. They never doubt the difference — they just ponder it. It’s like a kind of idolatry of uniqueness.

I think it’s more like the troll losing his watch up his own ass

If trolls could tell time, that might have been a plausible analogy.

 
 

For example, the NAACP is trying to “concern troll” [=undermine] the Tea Party movement into dropping all that stuff about endless deficits and conduct purges of purported racists in its ranks.

HOW DARE THEY “concern troll” [=undermine] about racism! The NAACP is supposed to be concerned with primarily fiscal issues, not racial issues!

The fact is that Hispanics, on average, don’t pay all that much attention to the news. They tend to be younger, less literate, less interested in America, and less interested in public affairs in general.

The decline of the Los Angeles Times would be a sad reminder of this—it has long tried to compete with the New York Times for the title of the Most Serious Newspaper in the country, but its circulation area has become increasingly Hispanic—if the paper hadn’t been such an enthusiastic backer of the cause of its own destruction.

But who knew that if only the LA Times had written more anti-Mexican stuff, LA would have stayed the ultra-white city it has always been, and the LA Times wouldn’t have gotten to the point where they were forced to hire Jonah Goldberg, which they had to do because Mexicans can’t read for shit.

 
 

You know, there is plenty of shit in this world to be frightened of, from Tornadoes and Earthquakes to slick floors and rabid dogs, so why do you Tea Party folk feel the need to generate rape fantasies?

 
 

I think Mexican day laborers would write a more insightfull column than Jonah and do it for three bucks. This is why newspapers are failing. Wastefull spending.

Because to address pretty much any real problem in the real world would require taking a liberal position. Much more comfortable to keep watching Glenn Beck and whining about secret communist plots.

I’m sure (I sure hope, given how hard he works) that Tintin himself has something better to do of a Saturday night than sweep up after Steve the Troofy Dilrod, who is just barely clever enough to realize that no one would click on his links if he knew how to make one.

And I’d suspect that deleting that shite would only result in Dubmass quadrupling down. Pretty soon every issue of Uncle Sam Shits on The Constitution, including the common taters, would be showing up here.

It sho’ nuff is a waste of bandwidth though.

Random, only semi-on topic thought: The “Tea Party” is often treated as one big monolithic entity when, except for the guys writing the checks, at the front end at least, it’s really hundreds of disorganized local groups that just happen to call themselves Tea Partiers and often fight brutally and hilariously with each other.

There is no “pope” of Tea Partying to decide what the central practices are, coordinate messages, be “the buck stops here” guy, cast people out of the faith, etc.

In this respect, the Tea Parties are just like Islam. There’s no pope of Islam, either. So if one Tea Partier or even thousands of Tea Partiers shouting racist slogans doesn’t make the whole movement racist, why should one Muslim make the whole religion Jihadist?

 
 

This is what happens when the Communist Manifesto pees on the toilet seat.

 
 

There is no “pope” of Tea Partying to decide what the central practices are, coordinate messages, be “the buck stops here” guy, cast people out of the faith, etc.

It reminds me more of Protestantism, in the American-fundie brand. In theory, there’s no central “Pope” and everyone’s free to think for themselves. In reality, things like Papal infallibility are replaced by the much more effective dogma of groupthink and peer pressure to conform – which one or two individuals, smarter than the rest, can easily manipulate for whatever they want.

I say this as someone who’s attended both Catholic and fundie churches in my time. At the fundie church I attended, the pastor theoretically was no more than a first among equals, with no doctrine of infallibility to back him up; in reality, he had his congregation on a far, far tighter leash than I’ve ever seen in any Catholic church.

(Probably Islam analogies would work too, but I don’t have the personal exposure to them that I’ve had to Christians).

 
 

In other news,

In Florida to rally state Republicans, Sarah Palin also found time to pitch her book and TV show.

Can her 15 minutes be up soon?

 
 

So if one Tea Partier or even thousands of Tea Partiers shouting racist slogans doesn’t make the whole movement racist, why should one Muslim make the whole religion Jihadist?

Brown people. One has ’em.You do the math. Tough, I know, being you’re in Alabama and they burn people for doing math there, but I have faith.

 
 

Same logic applies to the Tea Party Movement. Yes there’s infighting between local leaders, no there’s no formal organization… but you can still find those individuals at the national level whose influence over the party might as well be Pope-like, who right now are Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck.

One thing I’ve noticed about Republican primaries is that whenever Sarah Palin endorses one candidate and an “official” Tea Party group endorses another, Palin’s candidate always wins (Arizona, others too but I can’t remember them right now). Which kind of puts the lie to their claim that it’s all about ideas with no Obamania-like cult or whatever.

VS, here’s what worked for us: contract the naming thing out to relatives. My sis in law and her preposterously energetic children canvassed the streets (they live in Berkeley, which may or may not be relevant) and came up with a name for daughter 1, ’cause we couldn’t get lists down to manageable levels. Madison, she uses Madi–wasn’t on the radar or the lists or anything at the time. You risk tapping the zeitgeist though, and 4 years later it’s the most popular name evar.

And the name turned out perfectly accurate, as we generally just call her Mad Grace.

 
St. Trotsky, Pope-in-Avignon
 

I don’t think I could ever name one of my children Vivian, and I’ll tell you why. Every time I called their name, and someone other than a ginger punk bastard with three metal stars stapled into his forehead appeared, I would be dismayed.

And eventually, that dismay at seeing my child would fuck with their head, and they’d probably rebel and act out for their father’s attention, until they’re dressing in clear heels and sleeping with guys in suits.
