It's Opposite Day in Play-school

Sort of the Dennis Miller of unlikely conservatives

(breitbart)

"I'd been wondering why the liberals are so passionate about this Health Care thing. It couldn't be because they actually care about sick, poor people. If they did, they would visit hospitals, and give ten percent of their gross salaries to Compassion International and World Vision, like us stupid church go-ers do."
— Victoria Jackson?



Read on exhibit A.

Victoria Jackson's like this Palin-Coulter love-child... but without the love.

One day we're laughing at the antics of her baby-doll character on SNL, and then it's like the Zombie Jesus got her. These opposite-mongers twist very basic precepts of their religion into something cruel, unforgiving, and stingy.

"Socialized medicine makes people die. You stand in a long, long line with a breast lump, clogged artery, or sharp pencil stuck in your eye, and someone like the DMV person, who can’t speak English, has chewing gum, an attitiude, really long fake nails that curl up at the end, and is talking on a cell phone, enjoying their power trip moment, is finally face to face with you."

Au contraire, my Rapture-ready birth certificate conspiracy nut.

You can get caught up on so-called socialism, but some people call it Christian:

Act 4:31-37:

When they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled, and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost. They spoke the word of God with boldness.

The multitude was of one heart and one soul: neither said any of them that the things which he possessed were his own, but they had all things common.

Neither was there anyone among them that lacked, for many who possessed land or houses sold them and brought the prices of the things that were sold and laid at the apostles' feet: and distribution was made unto every man according to his need.

Nixon said the darnedest things...


Ze Frank dices black and white

(TIME)

"There are times when abortion is necessary. I know that. ...when you have a black and a white. Or rape."
— Richard Nixon



More Ze being Frank.

...but Nixon said something that most religious conservatives don't cop to today, that their real concern about abortion is not for the life of an undifferentiated cluster of blastocyst cells, but for what they fear to be inconsequential promiscuity.

Rapture-voters could solve the problem of abortion by making it unnecessary, by pushing for family-friendly wages, proportional tax policy, and the right to a healthy life... not just life... but universal, affordable healthcare, the trop of Obama's philosophy, which hopes to make abortion unnecessary, not illegal.

They would stop ranting about abortion and do something to make life a viable option, an exciting choice, instead of impossible. They would literally argue to make raising babies affordable.

Back to promiscuity. That's an argument I heard a lot as a kid, clatter about the rampant promiscuity unleashed by the Supreme Court's ruling on Roe v Wade, but that inarguably nosy-sounding noise was soon supplanted by the pro-life stand, after the roving ban of sex police went out of fashion in America.

At the Atlantic Free Press, Jayne Stall points out that the same release of Nixon tapes frees a tidbit between Nixon and Republican Party National Committee chair, George H.W. Bush, discussing the merit of picking a beautiful woman to run for office.

Nixon says, "Understand, I don't do it because I'm for women, but I'm doing it because I think maybe a woman might win someplace where a man might not."

Charmed from the start.
