Don\u2019t hold your breath waiting around for apologies from those who called you crazy, a bomb-tosser, a nut with a gun, a genocidal kooky-con bent solely on denying the obvious rights to the obvious victims \u2014 when one by one, our predictions come true, and the lawsuits about polygamy (polyamory), bestiality, incest, pedophilia, object fetishism, and the right to push all this on kids in public schools as right and good and the school\u2019s business to discuss with them but not the parents, oh, and the loss of freedoms to even say what you think. No, none of that will happen, you murderous savage, you neanderthal, you Rush-bot echo-chamber-pots. It is not happening right before your eyes, you never predicted it because you did not provide a link, and at any rate the way it\u2019s happening now is totally different from what you said, and you blind conservative pigs may have found anut<\/del> truffle but that hardly proves anything, and finally it may be the case that everything you predicted came to pass, as you said, when you said, but that still doesn\u2019t give you the right to say whatever you feel, because you don\u2019t know.<\/p>\n

Well, with friends like these, who needs enemies?<\/p>\n

Hey, thanks John McCain for not mentioning Obama\u2019s appalling past and then-present. \u00a0Thanks Mitt Romney for being such a gentleman to the animist usurper. \u00a0Innocent mistakes both, I am sure, but it\u2019s not like nobody told you all exactly what would happen.<\/p>\n

I still expect to convince nobody. \u00a0I just know which side I\u2019ll be on when the shooting starts. \u00a0And ever since this country failed to cleanse itself of the Alinskyite destroyers in 2012, I have felt that a shooting war is the next big thing to avoid. \u00a0If we cannot talk about these things, then we will wind up shooting about them. \u00a0But we cannot talk about them. \u00a0Well, I guess we can, in little free-speech zones where the GOP Establishment can laugh at us, because it makes them popular at the beltway dinner parties. \u00a0But our friends will prevent us from accomplishing anything until it is too late. \u00a0They would rather consign our sons to fight it out in the streets than they themselves not be invited to the press dinner.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not just the\u00a0stench and\u00a0moral corruption of treachery that makes it so awful, so unwelcome, so unbearable. \u00a0It\u2019s the very concrete effect that interfering with our ability to take the fight to the enemy means the enemy will win.<\/p>\n

John Boehner and John Roberts have gone to extraordinary lengths to preserve much of the status quo as they see it, which is with the progressive accelerator mashed to the floorboard. \u00a0They blame us not only for wanting to brake, but even for wanting to stop accelerating, and the sooner they can throw\u00a0us overboard, the sooner there will be quiet in the car.<\/p>\n
