Most of those who claim to embody the wishes of the people, do so by removing those people who think differently.

Is it a real place? I thought it was an allusion to Musso(lini) and Franc(o).

Calvin has a hell of a lot to answer for. I speak as the descendant of generations of repressed and fucked-up Presbyterians.

I vote for the noncommittal passivity of "And may more political leaders come up who can help jobs happen."

You know those 12 guys who used to follow Jesus around? He told them all to quit their jobs to spend the next 3 years mooching off people.

My ancestors, generations of farmers and laborers and union workers, worked very hard so that I could be a lazy white-collar worker with a college education who spends his days reading mommyWARblogs. They didn't do it because they were getting spiritual orgasms the whole time, they did it because they needed to eat and hopefully allow their children to do a little better and NOT HAVE TO DO THE SHIT THEY HAD TO!

<i>Conservatives have been concerned about our culture for at least a quarter-century.</i>

well pegs, you SHOULD be concerned. conservative culture is pretty much the least talented group of painters, actors, writers and comedians ever before assembled under a single banner.

Peggy knows a great deal about work! She has to hire someone to hire the help, after all.

As if a unified American "thought" existed. Did Ronnie have 300 million simultaneous thoughts (lolz)? Which one rose up to consciousness - the fattest? the oldest? the Hawaiian? the one riding a Rascal?

Oh, the richest white one.

At the risk of seeming unkind, who considers that keyboard jabbing that Peggy does work?

No, even her columns in the early 70's were full of Reagan crap
