And without a soupÃ§on of *Society Maintenance by Each

Post #324,528 by Ashton 4/12/10 3:54:48 PM Reply	And without a soupÃ§on of Society Maintenance by Each and Every beneficiary: 'fairly' 'apportioned' Why, you get a vitriolic, sanctimonious and slogan-spewing dis-united crop of malcontents and a dysfunctional aggregate. Like Here, Now and further-on along ... the current path of terminal disintegration: so evidently under way, if one Zooms-Out for an overall perspective. From time-to-time. Keep whistling past that cemetery of more-More-MORE for the fewer and fewer, (up there in the 2%) Everyone needs a leitmotif. Hey.. Dickie Wagner wrote some beauts for various other kinds of Götterdämmerung (s) But there are no guitars in those. Sorry. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I could almost see voting for Palin in 2012 on the grounds that this sorry ratfucking excuse for a republic, this savage, smirking, predatory empire deserves her.

Any other method of thought leads to complete dysfunction. Does that sum your argument up? I will choose a path that's clear. I will choose freewill.

Now you may parse 'merit-ocracy' -- as those who invent the slogans always make sure that they are personally entitled to the fullest-measure of that 'merit', before the slogan's release. cha cha etcetera ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I could almost see voting for Palin in 2012 on the grounds that this sorry ratfucking excuse for a republic, this savage, smirking, predatory empire deserves her.

Post #324,537 by beepster 4/12/10 5:40:18 PM Reply	could you point to some place in history where perhaps a model has been in place that would suit your purpose? Something of this planet perhaps? While you have traditionally rallied to the cause of "what do conservatives want to conserve?", I don't believe you have yet to promote Ashtotopia to anyone, either. While your snark certainly does entertain...I am reminded of that great literary scholar S Wright, who noted... "A friend of mine once sent me a postcard with a picture of the entire planet Earth taken from space. On the back it said, Wish you were here" I will choose a path that's clear. I will choose freewill.

Substitute Reactionary for the modern 'Conservative', 97.7% identical. Pity the word has been elided within the billions of soundbytes spewed all over the æther. Guess most of the current writers are too young ever to have heard it. (Sorry, there's no Ashtopia to be outlined. After all, there wasn't one way-back. How could there be one next?) ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I could almost see voting for Palin in 2012 on the grounds that this sorry ratfucking excuse for a republic, this savage, smirking, predatory empire deserves her.
