We have to defeat ourselves before our enemy.

[LonePalm]

I know how she feels. Sing along with me.

Immanuel Kant was a real pissant
Who was very rarely stable
Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar
Who could think you under the table
David Hume could out-consume
Schopenhauer and Hegel
And Wittgenstein was a beery swine
Who was just as shloshed as Schlegel
There's nothing Nietszche couldn't teach ya
'Bout the raising of the wrist
Socrates himself was permanently pissed

John Stuart Mill of his own free will
On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill
Plato they say could stick it away
Half a crate of whiskey every day
Aristotle, Aristotle was a buggar for the bottle
Hobbes was fond of his Dram
And Rene Descartes was a drunken fart
"I drink, therefore I am!"
Yes Socrates himself is particularly missed
A lovely little thinker
But a bugger when he's pissed.

"Ceterum censeo 0bama esse delendam."

Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)

The world leaders can march around all they want. Unless the have the courage to clearly identify the enemy and crush them, Charlie H will happen again; live and in stereo.

[Norm Lenhart]

All that march is is a bunch of liberals getting in front of a parade and steering it in their direction. Same thing as Nov here. People spoke and Pols said “WE hear you! so we do it our way because thats what we heard.’

Reality is not a factor here. Power and agenda are.

[ClearCase_guy]

Yes we cant.

[Lizavetta]

Do liberals actually believe in the right to offend? Their attitude seems to me to be ambivalent at best.

They're not ambivalent. They are reliably hypocritical.

The example that stands out in my mind is comparing their outrage over the Sony email leaks to their reaction when Donald Sterling's private conversation was taped and leaked.

I had to get up and leave during the homily by a visiting priest this morning. Fortunately he’s retired. Less opportunity to damage the Body of Christ. He started by apologizing to altar girls for what Cardinal Burke said about vocations. Then he started talking about an order of nuns which I personally know and which are the left leaning short haircut sensible shoe types. When he got to feminism I got up and left. I did come back for the Eucharist since that is why I go, to worship and receive.
