Men like Stephen King will be as forgotten as yesterday's papers, remembered only by worms.

I SO hope that Mr. King gets a copy of this.

Good column. The way it was, the way it always will be.

"When it arrives, who will defend what remains of Western Civilization? Will the likes of Stephen King step up to the plate?"

Like lambs to the slaughter.

That's how a shocked and frightened King will greet his fate. By the time he learns that his words, his arrogance, and his false pride only serve to facilitate the aims of his enemies, it will be too late.

And as the knife begins slicing through his neck, he will beg for some rough men to come and save him...

Martin Luther relied upon the pikes of Protestant kings to spread his new faith.

Luther would never, ever have claimed to have founded a "new" faith. His argument was with the Roman Church, the hierarchy, not the Faith.

And George Orwell never said that quote in life, only on the internet. (He expressed a similar sentiment in a book review, so it is a fair paraphrase of what Orwell believed.)

One mans crap is another mans entertainment.

If only I could get paid for writing down the ideas in my head, and convincing others my writing is worth millions of dollars? But alas, I am but a barbaric warrior defending King’s writings.

“Like competent parasites they take every advantage of a society created and maintained by their betters. They drain as much vitality as they can, replace it with a crude solipsism and work to crush the husk that remains. Their lives are ones of soft comfort and padded ease. For in all their degrees and learning and rhetoric and billions and billions of words they have learned nothing worth knowing. For all intents and purposes they are barbarians.”

This is a current definition of liberal Socialist democrat. The liberal socialist communist democrat see no problem with using guns to commit such atrocities as murdering millions of their own people on a whim. POLPOT, Stalin, MUGBEE, castro are all fine examples of murdering liberals.

Men with guns fashioned this society. A society of classlessness, where respect is given to all. Opportunity to excell and profit by your labors is accepted without the need for government intervention.

Only Men With Guns will keep this republic.

He is a writer of horror I hear ....

That he is, laddie ... that he is.

Good Read!

[Tax-chick]

Nobody reads as much as my daughter - and not Stephen King’s drivel, either - but she’s going to join the military next year and insist on going to Iraq.

[2ndDivisionVet]

Bears repeating! Thanks for posting this...

In 1000 years when the dust has settled, when the first glimmers of a new Age of Gold appear, men like Leonidas will still be remembered. Men like Stephen King will be as forgotten as yesterday’s papers, remembered only by worms.

The best response I’ve seen written yet.

Civilization and the ability to inflict violence go together, are inseparable.

In fact, "civilization" is the is simply the organization and legalization of the ability to inflict violence on others.

One of the best books describing this idea is, believe it or not, "Starship Troopers" by Robert Heinlein. Unlike the movie, which, other than some character names has little to do with the book, it IS a political work. It shows how a kid grows into a man, and learns responsibility. It also goes into great depth as to what exactly war is all about.

Of course, leftists would say that it glorified the military and war, but when you think about it, what's really wrong with that? Only an idiot would say that all war is bad.
