“Enormously Smaller”

I read the expression that makes up this post’s title in a snippet of dialog recently and it struck me that an apparent oxymoron (there’s another word for this specific kind of construction that slips my mind right now–any reminders?) can sometimes contain much, much more than a kernel of truth, often more easily than more accurate but also more cumbersome expressions might do. “Enormously smaller” is a silly expression on its face, but coupled with only minimal imagination is much more expressive (and more easily said) than “smaller by several orders of magnitude,” which does make more sense, but has much less emotional appeal, less punch.

One of the applications of “enormously smaller” that springs to mind is the “emormously smaller” intellects and moral fiber of those who eagerly lap up the poisons spewed out by faux liberals on both sides of the largely nonexistant political (non)divide between Dhimmicraps and Repugnican’ts such as Juan Mexicain and The Obamassiah. (The only real differences between Juan Mexicain and The Obamassiah I can see are very slight differences in the speed at which their affirmed positions would drive this country to ruin. Slight differences with no substantial wedge between Devil #1 and Devil #2. Vote for the Uniparty! *sigh*)

Of course, Juan Mexicain and The Obamassiah are only representative examples of their respective portions of The Uniparty, nowadays. “Fringe” elements who might actually believe the Constitution–no, not what some politicians *spit* or guys playing “Illuminatti Keno” in black robes say is the Constitution: the real thing–still has some real validity are just that: fringers.

*sigh*

No, it really does take people with “enormously smaller” (or “hugely tiny” *heh*) mental abilities and/or moral faculties to embrace the destrution of the republic simply because the Mass Media Podpeople’s Hivemind tells them to.

Facts vs Feelings

[SEE UPDATE at foot]

I recently had a long email exchange (can’t call it a discussion: all the words that made any sense were all sent; none received. *sigh*) with someone who has sold their soul to the idea of feelings trumping facts.

And this person calls themselves a “conservative”. Seriously.

Here’s the rub:

I received–yet again!–a rehashed and reworded email calling forth the thirty-year-old, tired old hoax about “FCC Petition Number 2493” from someone all riled up about First Amendment rights in danger of being lost to this thirty-year-old hoax.

I returned an email letting them know it was a hoax and added a gratuitous, “I might be tempted to sign such a petition if it existed to keep the charlatans you fear might be taken off the air off the air”.

And there went the baby with the bath water. Now, of course, since the sender of the hoax FELT some favorite religious charlatans were threatened, not only by the evil FCC but by me of all people, I was in for a slew of spittle and froth, “signifying nothing” save the writer’s total committment to feeling over fact.

Oh, funny aside: one of the religious charlatans I mentioned himself admitted some of the charges I laid at his door on national television, but that fact made no difference, either (nor did the fact that I sent a link to an article discussing the admissions. Of course.)

More germane: multiple citations of articles clearly and concisely and definitively debunking the Petition 2493 hoax weren’t enough to make an argument to someone completely sold out to arguing according to feelings, not facts:

“I did read it and I know you said it is a HOAX, but I DO NOT BELIEVE IT IS A HOAX.”

People who argue with their eyes closed, their fingers in their ears and their mouth motoring away at “la-la-la-la-la-… ” are impervious to reason and facts.

And these people can vote.

I used to call these people reality-based fantasists and faux liberals, but now, self-styled “conservatives” are as likely to be included in this class of idiots as not.

This is what “democracy” gets us. Weep for the republic that once was.

[Addendum: Out and about this a.m., I met an old guy who runs a junk store who’s a good example of “feelings over facts”. He had on his shelf a bottle of clear amber fluid labeled “Pepper Beer–not for drinking”. Naturally that led this unmoderated tongue to comment, “What a shame. Beer is for drinking” which led to…

“Beer destroyed my family,” and a tale of growing up in a family where his father got drunk on beer and was abusive. No amount of pointing out the fact that the beer didn’t force excessive amounts of itself down his father’s throat making him into an abusive drunk was going to convince him of his father’s responsibility for his own drunkeness. No, it was the beer that did it.

*feh* Such people are idiots. Inanimate objects, chemical substances and the like do not make people harm others. People mmake themselves do harmful things, including making the CHOICE to abuse mind-altering chemical substances of all kinds.

The bushwah about people, including addicts, not being responsible for their actions is the perhaps single most harmful meme in our society today.]

UPDATE: Hilarious stupidity. The person who prompted this post has “retaliated” for my having pointed out that their spread of a hoax–especially now that they have adequate evidence that what they are spreading is a hoax–is “bearing false witness,” which is a strange thing for someone claiming to be a Christian to do, well, this same person has apparently “felt” like CLICKing on a link or attachment in an email without checking it out, and had their email addressbook harvested by some malware. (No, I do not think they are directly spamming me, although I could certainly make some trouble for them with their ISP were I to report the spam apparently coming from their address.)

Of course, I could be giving this “feeling” person more credit than they are due. Fortunately, I’d never have even noticed the spam emails except this is my day of the week to weed through my email spam queue for false positive (there were none, as usual).

Aside: I’ve almost grown to like email spam now that I filter everything through my hosting service’s spam filters. 🙂 I love for unethical people to waste their resources trying to hook me. Were it not for the fact that they are also wasting bandwidth, I’d no longer mind spammers at all.

Is America Worth Saving?

Back in the saddle again. I’ll pick up the dropped series “Issues and Answers” next week, but meanwhile, I thought it might be profitable to ask…

Is America Worth Saving?

Consider: what is “America”? These (Dys)United States? A federal constitutional republic in which the Constitution is largely ignored or deliberately “misread” to fit the whims of its political masters? A people of whiny, “Gimme-gimme-gimme, the world owes me a luxurious life” victim classes?

What has America become that is worth saving?

OTOH, from the record (Katrina, Tsunami, etc., on down the line), individual Americans seem to also be the most generous folks on the planet. The actual documents that are supposedly “the law of the land” do still make powerful sense (even though our political masters do everything in their power to deny the actual words). And sometimes an ocassional state does act like the States that formed the original union and actually assert itself as political body actually concerned with legitimate governance. Rarely, but sometimes.

But, is America salvageable? Have things deteriorated too far to be repaired? Has our federal government proceeded too far down the path King George chose, lo these many years ago, that resulted in The People declaring,

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. — Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.

Thereafter, of course, followed the infamous “long train of abuses” which the government of Great Britain had thrust upn the colonies.

Is the “train of abuses” from our federal government any shorter or less odious today? By a smidgeon, perhaps.

But. Are the American people of today capable of demanding good government or are we so consumed by trivialities and self-serving conflicts as to be incapable of the fortitude that was demanded of the Founders?

A recent kerfuffle from the pages of contemporary “news” and blogospherical reactions suggests to me that although America may be worth saving and our political masters do need a swift (metaphorical) kick upside their collective heads, the attention of America cannot be brought to bear upon serious issues for as long as the attention span of a gnat. We just have too many other “important” issues to deal with, like,

The “Black National Anthem” pseudo-issue.

Y’all know the story by now, no doubt. A gal was asked to sing the National Anthem for a gathering in Denver. She chose to sing the so-called “Black National Anthem” instead of the supposed “white” National Anthem.

Twittering classes erupted in the kerffufle du jour.

*Yawn*

Folks, this is NOT something worth getting our panties in a knot over. The singer showed her own poor judgement and racial bigotry. Sad for her, and sad for anyone who either endorsed her racial bigotry or overreacted against it, giving her the attention she obviously craves. (You will notice that I do not name the singer, nor do I link to any article reporting her rude racial bigotry.)

I happen to very much like, appreciate and enjoy both singing and hearing sung,

“Lift every voice and sing
Till earth and heaven ring,
Ring with the harmonies of Liberty;
Let our rejoicing rise
High as the listening skies,
Let it resound loud as the rolling sea.
Sing a song full of the faith that the dark past has taught us,
Sing a song full of the hope that the present has brought us,
Facing the rising sun of our new day begun
Let us march on till victory is won”

I have often scheduled it for singing in patriotic or “God and Country” meetings, etc.

But. It is not a substitute for the National Anthem, which includes the verse so infrequently sung,

“Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war’s desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav’n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: “In God is our trust.”
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!”

Neither song need stand in conflict with the other. Each has its own proper place. I do regret that “Lift Ev’ry Voice and Sing” is somehow known as an exclusively “black” song, when its lyrics should be singable by every true American, and I regret as well the idea that the Star Spangled Banner is somehow viewed by some racist bigots (on both sides of an arbitrary skin color divide) as the “white” National anthem. That such a view persists only serves the purpose of racial bigots of any and all skin tones.

What people, standing in sight of long-desired liberty (or in our case, fast fading liberties), could not embrace the song,

“God of our weary years,
God of our silent tears,
Thou who has brought us thus far on the way;
Thou who has by Thy might
Led us into the light,
Keep us forever in the path, we pray.
Lest our feet stray from the places, Our God, where we met Thee;
Lest, our hearts drunk with the wine of the world, we forget Thee;
Shadowed beneath Thy hand,
May we forever stand.
True to our GOD,
True to our native land”

The kerffufle over some tasteless racial bigot substituting what she sees as her “national anthem” for the National Anthem she had agreed to sing is simply evidence that far, far too many Americans are unable to concentrate on real issues and are ready, willing and far, far too able (EAGER!) to be distracted by triffles.

Those who do not learn from history…

…are doomed to repeat it.

Sadly, this is not necessarily true. I’ll get out the “splainsit stick” in a bit to expound on that.

/curmudgeon’s rant: on

George Washington was not the first president of the United States. Seriously. Now, I know many would deride such a comment as silly, even those who already know, as any student of American history knows, that John Hanson was the first president of the United States of America under the Articles of Confederacy, because some do not believe the United States existed before the Constitution of 1787-1789.

Pish-tosh. If the United States of America did not exist before then, then what entity was it that foreign governments treated with under that name? What authority paid troops, what authority issued the Great Seal of the United States in 1782, if the United States did not exist until the Constitution of 1787 was ratified?

Why is it important that we acknowledge that there were seven presidents before George Washington, despite the naysayers who wrongly assert there was no United States until the 1789 ratification of the 1787 Constitution? Because the Articles of Confederacy form the backbone of the fleshed-out Constitution, just as the Declaration of Independence describes the blood that flows through its veins.

Oh, dear me! Did I just make an allusion to a “living document”? Continue reading “Those who do not learn from history…”

It’s the little things…

For want of a nail
the shoe was lost.
For want of a shoe
the horse was lost.
For want of a horse
the rider was lost.
For want of a rider
the battle was lost.
For want of a battle
the kingdom was lost.
And all for the want
of a horseshoe nail.

It’s always the little things. But little things are often very, very large.

Take one of three very, very large things that are dragging the U.S. over the face of a precipice and down to ruin: illiteracy. No, I’m not just talking about the lack of what Mass Media Podpeople, Academia Nut Fruitcakes, edu/bureaucraps, and politicians *spit* that are the Conspiracy of Dunces intent on bringing the U.S. to ruin have redefined literacy to mean (a simple ability to laboriously decode words from print).

No, literacy is much, much more than simply being able to decode the printed page or sign ones name, as the dumbed down version our wonderful Conspiracy of Dunces would have it. It is at the very least the ability to decode those words, make sense of them and use their meaning to make rational decisions or come to an understanding of things beyond ones personal experience.

That’s simple functional literacy. And functional literacy is on the decline in the U.S. Witness all the idiots who in 2000 were too stupid to be able to follow directions in voting and caused such a brouhaha in the Florida vote count.

Worse, college graduates who are unable to understand simple directions for taking prescription meds or a newspaper editorial written to a theoretical eighth-grade level. College graduates.

But the simple, little thing of functional literacy is essential to a democratic representative republic, for when voters are too stupid to make sound choices, the government they get will be… what we have.

It’s a little thing. Continue reading “It’s the little things…”

The Greatness of the American Electorate

The American electorate’s amazing literacy, deeply informed knowledge of history, economics and current events combined with superb analytical skills and a deep committment to participatory government have inexorably led to the development of the wisest government in the history of the world.

Mister, why are YOU here?

That’s a question (almost) no politician will ask himself or if asked by anyone else will answer honestly.

But others can not be allowed such a luxury. From Robert A. Heinlein’s 1973 James Forrestal Memorial Lecture delivered at the United States Naval Academy:

Why are you here?

[directed] Mister, why are YOU here?

Never mind, son; that’s a rhetorical question. You are here to become a naval officer. That’s why this Academy was founded. That is why all of you are here: to become naval officers. If that is NOT why YOU are here, you’ve made a bad mistake. But I speak to the overwhelming majority who understood the oath they took on becoming midshipmen and look forward to the day when they will renew that oath as commissioned officers.

But why would anyone want to become a naval officer?

In the present dismal state of our culture there is little prestige attached to serving your country; recent public opinion polls place military service far down the list.

It can’t be the pay. No one gets rich on the pay. Even a 4-star admiral is paid much less than top executives in other lines. As for lower ranks the typical naval officer finds himself throughout his career just catching up from the unexpected expenses connected with the last change of duty when another change of duty causes a new financial crisis. Then, when he is about fifty, he is passed over and retires. . .but he can’t really retire because he has two kids in college and one still to go. So he has to find a job. . .and discovers that jobs for men his age are scarce and usually don’t pay well.

Working conditions? You’ll spend half your life away from your family. Your working hours? “Six days shalt thou work and do all thou art able; the seventh day the same, and pound the cable.” A forty-hour week is standard for civilians — but not for naval officers. You’ll work that forty-hour week but that’s just a starter. You’ll stand a night watch as well, and duty weekends. Then with every increase in grade your hours get longer — until at last you get a ship of your own and no longer stand watches. Instead you are on duty twenty-four hours a day. . .and you’ll sign your night order book with: “In case of doubt, do not hesitate to call me.”

Politicians *spit*–those self-styled elites–view such a service orientation as anathema… of course. But there is a much deeper course of service that transcends even duty, and it is a course that citizens need to at least be aware of, even if they never feel able to embrace it. It’s found elsewhere, but this, from Heinlein’s speech, is a poignant and powerful example:

… no one can force a man to feel this way. Instead he must embrace it freely. I want to tell about one such man …. no one knows his name, or where he came from; all we know is what he did.

In my home town sixty years ago when I was a child, my mother and father used to take me and my brothers and sisters out to Swope Park on Sunday afternoons. It was a wonderful place for kids, with picnic grounds and lakes and a zoo. But a railroad line cut straight through it.

One Sunday afternoon a young married couple were crossing those tracks. She apparently did not watch her step, for she managed to catch her foot in the frog of a switch to a siding and could not pull it free. Her husband stopped to help her.

But try as they might they could not get her foot loose. While they were working at it, a tramp showed up, walking the ties. He joined the husband in trying to pull the young woman’s foot loose. No luck —

Out of sight around the curve a train whistled. Perhaps there would have been time to run and flag it down, perhaps not. In any case both men went right ahead trying to pull her free, and the train hit them.

The wife was killed, the husband was mortally injured and died later, the tramp was killed — and testimony showed that neither man made the slightest effort to save himself.

The husband’s behavior was heroic, but what we expect of a husband toward his wife: his right, and his proud privilege, to die for his woman. But what of this nameless stranger? Up to the very last second he could have jumped clear. He did not. He was still trying to save this woman he had never seen before in his life, right up to the very instant the train killed him. And that’s all we’ll ever know about him.

This is how a man dies.

This is how a man lives!

Robert A. Heinlein, 5 April 1973
James Forrestal Memorial Lecture
United States Naval Academy

Do go read the entire speech.

(BTW, anyone who knows of a better posting of the speech–the one I found was on a discussion group, split between two postings–please send it my way.)

When is a “right” not a right?

When it’s licensed, restricted and controlled by the government. When those strictures are applied, “rights” are simply privileges granted by the state, not truly rights.

This thought was, of course, spurred by the upcoming Supreme Court case concerning Washington D.C.’s handgun ban. The specific comment in the recent WaPo article that turned my crank was,

“But even fundamental rights are subject to government restrictions… ”

Yep. That’s so. Suppose your pastor were to make comments from the pulpit about the record of a political candidate revealing that person to be unfit for government service because of specific biblical references to the nature, scope and limits of civil government. In fact, such arguments are completely religious, spiritual and proper from a Christian pulpit, and past generations of Americans would have easily recognized that fact (largely because past generations of Americans–whether they were Christians or not–were far more literate than contemporary Americans and well-versed, even the most anti-christian among them, with the Bible). Today, we have bought the communist-socialist (hence, ACLU dogma) lie that such comments are disallowed by the First Amendment.

Poppycock! Only an illiterate (or lying) person could in any way, shape, fashion of form misread that amendment to get such a result.

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof… ”

And yet, Congress has passed laws into effect and empowered government agencies to do exactly that. You are free to practice your religion only so far as it does not impinge itself directly upon the practice of politics in any meaningful way.

And what of the other, enumerated, rights of citizens found in the Constitution?

All “subject to government restrictions” of course, because they are no longer recognized as rights but privileges granted by the PTB.

Or, twisted to meaninglessness by liars, poltroons and fools to match up with their own agendas. Just take the First Amendment for example. It was specifically drafted to prevent the federal government from interfering in any way with the practice of individuals in matters of religious conscience, speech and behavior. (For now I’m going to sidestep the abortion of Constitutional precepts embedded in the 14th Amendment.) And what else does it deal with?

POLITICAL speech (read the Framers before you try to argue with me on that one).

The PEOPLE’s rights to assemble peaceably and to seek redress for federal government oppression/mistreatment (wanna join a march for freedom from IRS bullying? Right. I thought not. Don’t want your name on THAT list *sigh*).

A press unencumbered by federal restraints.

But as you well know, freedom of speech is now applied in ways the Framers would find inexplicable, abhorrent, stupid. Trivializing freedom of speech is useful to those who want to restrict the freedom of political speech, and such as McCain-Feingold is but one result.

Heck, the only part of the First Amendment still standing nowadays is freedom of the press, and that’s likely because the press is almost all on the side of tearing down real freedom and replacing it with Orwell’s 1984.

So, as the monkeys on the SCOTUS consider what the Second amendment means, follow along and allegorically apply the G.K Chesterton quote in my right sidebar:

“Though drinking may be a caprice, it is a caprice that cannot be forbidden to a citizen, but can be forbidden to a slave.” G.K. Chesterton

Since the federal government seeks to make slaves of us with its unconscionable prying into our lives on serious matters (like restricting the ennumerated rights in the Bill of Rights that the document says the federal government can NOT), just watch all the other rights we have eaten away as they are deemed either capricious or dangerous by TPTB.

Chattel slavery wasn’t the only thing that was formally ended at Appomattox:

“The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people.”

Remember,

“Though drinking may be a caprice, it is a caprice that cannot be forbidden to a citizen, but can be forbidden to a slave.”

I’m just waiting for the SCOTUS to deem “keep[ing] and bear[ing] arms” a caprice that’s no longer necessary (or a right that is too dangerous) for citizens to retain.

Headed down the road to slavery. Not chattel slavery, exactly, but worse in some ways.

Hobson’s Choice

“A Hobson’s choice is a free choice in which only one option is offered, and one may refuse to take that option. The choice is therefore between taking the option or not taking it. The phrase is said to originate from Thomas Hobson (1544–1630), a livery stable owner at Cambridge, England who, in order to rotate the use of his horses, offered customers the choice of either taking the horse in the stall nearest the door—or taking none at all. It is analagous to the expression ‘my way or the highway’.”1

Well, the presidential field is narrowed even further, it seems. Now, we have a choice between candidates who want to drive the country off a cliff to its doom at 120mph and candidates who want to drive the country off a cliff at a sedate 75mph…

Not really much of a choice.

Makes the case for striving to see congresscritters, state and local pols elected who give a damn about more than just their own personal power and their “Surrender, America!” ideologies. (And if you think for one minute Juan McCain’s “surrender America’s sovereignty at the borders” position isn’t fundamentally the same as the other candidates’ “Surrender America” positions then you are sadly deluded.)

Look closely at candidates for Congress, for state and local offices. Vote “Hell no!” against those whose positions fail to defend the U.S., your State or locality against the evils of alien invasion and… invasive government. Vote for people with the [intestinal fortitude] to tell “Surrender America!” judges, executives and bureaucrats to take a quick ride on the express train to hell.

More from the illiterate alien invaders…

On May 1, 2006, I posted “The Proper Display of the Mexican Flag on American Soil” in partial response to alien invaders disrespecting the American flag and displaying the Mexican flag above it… on American soil. I have left comments open for that and for another post in response to the alien invaders partially because I enjoy gleaning dumbass reactions like the one above (from a computer logged on via the Tallahassee, Florida, Broward County Public Schools… of course *heh*)

Victoria Garcia | www.teardrop_13_SG@hotmail.com | IP: 169.139.119.16

All american are some stupid a** who think that you belong here. First of all we were here before you all so if you think that we should go back to our country we R already here. WHITE poeple should hop back on to the MayFlower & go back to BRITIN!
OH AND WE R MEXICAN 4 LIFE NOT LATINOS, LATINOS R RICANS

Feb 6, 11:33 AM

The illiterate boob styling herself (?) “Victoria Garcia” fisks herself; I need make no further comment… but I will, of course.

If you check the comments on that post, you’ll see a sizeable number who share the illiterate boob’s sentiments, essentially, “Gringo, go home!” Of course, that begs the question, if the gringos “go home” how long will it take for the illiterate boob alien invaders to turn America into… the country(ies) they fled? Couldn’t make a success in Mexico, so they came here where the “gringos” had built the most productive, prosperous society in history. Now they want to turn it into the economic and social failure they fled?

Dumbasses.

Be sure and send teardrop_13_SG@hotmail.com a note of thanks for the entertainment “her” idiocy brought you (and, what the heck, visit the Broward County Public Schools website and congratulate them on the fine, fine job they’re doing “edumacatin'” this alien invader… *heh*).

And while you’re at it, why not make up a bumper sticker or three reading “Surrender Our Borders: Vote for Juan “SNake” McCain”

😉
