Blasphemy: Madonna's cross and gay "marriage"

On the subject of blasphemy and mockery of religion in our day, see you what you think about this comparison:

1) Madonna mocks the Crucifixion by performing a blasphemous parody of it.
2) Gays mock marriage by demanding the "right" to commit an impossibility or a contradiction in terms -- gay "marriage." They want to mock that holy institution, "ordained of God," by creating a filthy parody of it.

Do you think the impulse behind the two phenomena might be the same?

"If you can't help me, don't help the bear"

I'm not really all that worked up about North Korea having the bomb. Their economy is a basket case. They're like welfare recipients living in a tenement and driving a Cadillac. Where are they going to drive to?

Except they really have received welfare -- from us. The unspeakable and feckless Bill Clinton, worried about their nuclear ambitions (during those few minutes a day when he wasn't thinking about getting his next piece of female sexual favors) agreed to build up their economy AND build them nuclear-power plants, if only they would promise not to use those plants for making bombs! What kind of retarded, mongoloid cretin thinks that's a good idea? It's like giving a neighborhood delinquent a gun and bullets, and making him promise not to hurt anybody. What brain-diseased, drooling half-wit goes for that?

We would be far better off if the contemptible, nauseating Clinton had done NOTHING AT ALL. (Come to think of it, that applies to his whole Presidency.) If he had ignored North Korea's nuclear ambitions and just NOT HAVE HELPED them with their economy, they'd still be in the same economic slum and waste-land they were in then. Instead, they're a little above that.

This is a case like the old story of the man being chased by a bear; all his wife's efforts to help him end up hurting him, not the bear. When she yells, "What should I do?", he yells back, "If you can't help me, at least don't help the bear!" The abominable and putrid waste-of-space Bill Clinton should have adopted that policy.

We'd all have been better off presenting him, on the day of his inauguration, with an El Camino with carpet in the back, so he could pursue his only genuine interest for eight long years, and leave the country alone to get along as best it could. As the doctors say, "First, do no harm."

Who cares about the Korean bomb?

Well, I guess everybody has to care about the North Korean bomb in some abstract sense.

But the biggest threat facing this country is submitted to every day by all the pundits and heavy thinkers among our "leaders." It even gains glowing approval from assorted influential dimwits. That threat is the loss of our manufacturing base as a result of off-shoring.

We won World War II because we had a vast manufacturing base. Somebody said, before the war, something like: The United States is a vast tea-kettle or steam engine; once the fire is lit, incredible output will result.

Right now we're not a vast tea-kettle, we're a wet firecracker.

We won the Cold War why? Because of Reagan's "Star Wars"? Partly, but mostly because  at the end there, the Soviet Union was nothing but a vast slum. Its economy was a morass, a slough of despond. They ruined their economy by trying over and over to implement hare-brained, crackpot theories.

And "globalization," "free trade," and that whole mess is hare-brained. It's not free trade we face, it's capital flight. And an economy that invests all its production capital in other countries is doomed to become a vast slum, or a society "all of whose inhabitants make a living taking in one another's laundry" -- an absurdity. We're investing vast amounts of productive capital in China! And we're educating their young comrades in nuclear technology, computer science, and other advanced technology! Who's the lunatic in charge of all this?
