People are delusional. Take for example two quotes, snatched from a blog that gets way more comments than I do. I mean, if we were 250 million George and Laura Bushes, would they have even bothered to try to take us on? Would they've DARED ? Today I went to Lowes. There we got a rod to hang a ceiling fan. Whilst heading out to the parking lot I turned to my sis and said, "You know, I should carry this around at all times, I feel bad ass. I mean, if everyone had one of these pipes to carry around we'd all be safer." The error of this logic is so self-evident, until that is someone makes the claim that we would all be safer if every nutball was packing the ability to send another human to the grave at the wink of an eye. It boggles the mind. Moving on... If Kerry-Edwards manage to pass Bush-Cheney in the polls, then the Islamo-Fascist Terrorists need only to quietly sit by and watch Kerry win election. Can you follow the Freeper logic? It becomes more convoluted every time you read it. Right now, on the television behind me there is one station that's claiming that you can eat more, excersize less, and lose weight. Another is attempting to show me the high resolution and clarity of a Digital Projector by projecting an image on a wall and showing it on a TV screen. Watching late night infomercials is like excersizing your bullshit detector. The goal of terrorism is to change the actions of its victims by the use of fear. But when Americans stand at the polls and punch the cards a majority will know, without knowing how or why, that George Bush must be reelected. It is at this point that primordial self-preservation takes over. Fear = Impotence. War = Erection. I believe that if President Bush were to go on nationwide television and announce that he understands that people are afraid and that it is ok to be afraid, he might see significant gains amongst the population. Fear is ok, as long as you saddle up anyways. Action trumps inaction. Lashing out in anger is always preferable to impotence. If you made the wrong decision at least you acted... right? Consequences be damned. We understand that primordial instinct. Guided by our guts. Trust our fear to lead us on to our victory over the monsters under the bed. We'll get up and turn on the light. And when we find nothing under the bed we'll puff out our chests and go beat up our little brother or sister. A bully is born. We CAN eat more, excersize less and still lose weight. We CAN spend more, tax less and still win the war on terror. |
