tvashtarkatena Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Ron, his son, just came out with a memoir. He describes his father as an unflappable, affable , unknowable man who was ever skipping through his own Happy La La Land somewhere in his own mind. Unshakably optimistic, eternally out of touch.

tvashtarkatena Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 (edited) The Thomas example might have been more compelling if, by all credible accounts, the man hadn't actually been fantastically guilty of sexual harassment. Â Black or not, what a fucking creep. Â Anita Hill was the victim of a typical Right wing smear campaign, but in reality, she's an incredibly brave person who stood up to power in defense of women everywhere. Â But of course, she was 'begging for it', right? Just like the proposed re-definition of rape to exclude date rape, indeed, any rape not involving proof of injury to the victim (Yup, you read that right, er, Right). Â It's the same old story: disrespect for, denigration of, and repression of women. After all, in the Bible, women are DIRTY SIRENS OF SIN. Â The creep show continues...thanks PP for keeping the bar nice and low. Edited February 4, 2011 by tvashtarkatena Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tvashtarkatena Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 (edited) Certain movements are better at aggregating sociopaths than others. The White Supremacy movement clearly takes the lead, but the Tea Bagger and Evangelical movements seem to have a fair number of darlings in that category, as well. Â Other than out and out lunatics, these 'deliverance and salvation' movements invariably attract the severely damaged. Behind every born again is a sob story.

tvashtarkatena Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 (edited) I prefer to keep things secular, undramatic, and middle class. Dreams of a Sword Wielding Christ on a Big White Horse or Writhing Heavenly Virgins make me want seek out a little mountain lake for some Cutthroat.

tvashtarkatena Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 At my age, 'virgins' are something you avoid.  Back to military spending:  1962: $2500 per capita 2010: $4000 per capita  Inflation adjusted dollars.  Jeff Davis is rolling in his grave!

Fairweather Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 You haven't. And that's my point. Your response to the video is called giving a pass. And it's a pretty poor substitute for condemning those with whom you are politically aligned. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
