I hear you brother.I have no...Thanks for that, a4g. I hear you brother.<BR/><BR/>I have not read Godless yet. I am still wading through a re-read of Thomas Sowell's 'Conflict of Visions'.<BR/><BR/>Two things happened during my brief link research for this post. I found Garret's review of 'A Simple Truth', which I found humorously inspiring. Next, I also saw the recent poll of American's actually buying into the absurdity of the Loose Change 9/11 conspiracy. That would be a pin hitting my bubble, if I actually conferred some appreciable sum of trust to polls.<BR/><BR/>Still, it had a deflating effect.<BR/><BR/>My ears, much like yours, pass most of the bleating dogma through the neurological filter responsible for attenuating the nagging rusty nail chalkboard screech of the liberal relative, spouse or junior Senator from NY. But that is you and me.<BR/><BR/>We are seeing the <I>raw</I> philisophical prime-movers of the radical left, exposed. It has been exposed by world shaping events and the fact that their power has not played a single note on this instrument of change, other than the occassional dischord. <BR/><BR/>Their media monopoly has been unceremoniously smashed and stripped from them. The raw tools of their craft are emotional criteria, like fear, unqualified sympathy, moral relativism and a belief that they are the sole arbiters of moral justice, in the affairs of human suffering.<BR/><BR/>But the emotion strips the rational reflecting mirror of introspection, from their hand, smashing it to shards on the vanity. Without a moral anchor, it is a shallow plastic drama, on a poorly constructed Hollywood set. If they cannot control the script writers, than they damn the entire engine of justice, unfolding beneath their eyes.<BR/><BR/>Look at what they are doing to Joe Lieberman. I disagree with the lion's share of the senator's political views. He does share one key attribute with president Bush. He has a solid moral foundation and the courage to anchor himself there. You have seen me roundly criticize the president in one post, then praise him in another. The president has his beliefs. He generally has the courage to stand by them. The current emotional base, on the left side of the aisle cannot countenance Joe Leiberman's stalwart position. They want the ever swinging wind sock, that they get from the John Kerrys and the Hillary Clintons of this world.<BR/><BR/>The banquet is an apt and timely observation. So much is learned by a taste of suffering, to put real punctuation on those necessary conflicts. We knew we were in WWII, because we had to ration gas, chocolate, steel and all of the things that flow from our Cornucopia. We are just too damn good at protecting it these days. So good, that we have bred the slothful arrogance of imperviousness. Rather than embracing that bounty and spreading the liberty that created it, they lay a guilt trip on all of us, blaming our success as undeserved hubris. Tell that to the Chinese and the Indians.<BR/><BR/>This global warming issue is just another emotional wind sock. I guess I still languish in my concern, over the number of people who will raise their sails to that wind, and pull a voting lever.Insolubloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02693379911278686634noreply@blogger.com
