why I became a conservative

[Kodiak]

Re: Re: N.T.W. :

This is the first time Ive seen that site so you'll have to give me some time to read it over (Im also rushed for time...I got a new job a at medical school )

it was so vague I can't really describe it. Anarchy is basically it, because I/it was so stupid. Anarchy fits whatever program/propagandist wants to adopt its members.

It was anti-everything.......destroy Christianity, Capitalism, Corporations, re-write history "the way it should have been written", blah blah blah.....

watch the movie JFK, watch the end of Fight Club. Conspiracy Conspiracy....blow up the government.

I wanted chaos and so did my friends. Protest was "fun" and our teachers and elders encouraged it. "F!ck the New World Order" ........ "We Want a President Who Can Get It Up" .....

9-11 showed me how they worked psychologically. It helped me understand how they were lying without even knowing it.....it was horrible to live through. Every moment of it they demanding you look at the "grassy knoll" and find the government at the rifle.

I saw one thing and they told me I saw another .......or. ...... they told me I wasn't perceptive enough to see what REALLY happened, which was conspiracy theory. Beating me over the head with it helped me to understand that it was brainwashing and I knew what I saw.

when I read/hear what leftists say I can see the subtle lie that is based on a planned logical error on the readers part. Either that or is derives from the writer himself.

anyway........more later......

thanks kodiak !

Thanks for the response thus far, but I really hope you can find the time to describe and/or explain your current (conservative?) ideology, your pre 9-11 (socialist/anarchist?) ideology, and how the WTC/Pentagon bombings were the impetus for change.

Thanks, NTW...

Sounds like Christopher Hitchens too.

Yes it does, and I guess it's not surprising that my nephew is a major Hitchens fan.

NTW, you definitely sound like someone for whom there is no "middle ground". You see-sawed straight from anarchist-overthrow-left to buzzcut-M16-and-camo-right with no intervening steps at all. That these are just variants of one-eyed no-thought-required mobs seems to have slipped your mind, and is probably what made it so easy for you to switch.

Staying on the fence requires balance. Are you balanced, NTW??

You have made the classic mistake of Western logic. If one thing is true, the other is false. If one thing is bad, the other is good. It's not that simple, unfortunately. There is good and bad in everything. You, as an individual, have to decide for yourself where that balance lies for each instance of choice you have to make.

Another classic of Western logic: If one thing is yin, the other is yang.

Which kind of western logic is that? It must be the kind they teach in the other west????

Like this, from the "How the West Was Derived"

The sheriff stared at the stranger. "This here's a logical town. We're a syllogism fearing people, and we've got little time for people who try to say that "not X" doesn't necessarily mean that "Y" is true even if they are mutually exclusive."

The stranger looked confused. He was an unusual looking person, but not unpleasant. He was, best described as a unique person. "But mutual exclusiveness doesn't require that one of them has to be...."

The unique stranger never finished that sentence. A shot rang out as the Sheriff enforced the rules of logic, western style.

OMG! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Somehow I knew AUP wouldn't last long in the old West!.

Thanks for the belly laugh Suddenly! Of course, I've been told by many of my lefty,... (and righty) friends that I manage to stay in the middle because I have the fence post shoved firmly up my ass!

That there don't take no balance a'tall!

[P.S.A.]

I think that poor stranger was unjustly done by Rush Limbaugh type old-western values. I mean, look; I think we can all agree that Die Tosser Lefthanden proves that other people being idiots doesn't make you a genius... so how about you just put that gun down Mr Sheriff, and we boil up a nice cup of sympathy tea... *BLAM BLAM BLAM*

aww, the cute little sock puppet spoke again.

 

[P.S.A.]

Shhh.... don't say I'm a sock puppet! You want Club Gleet to have as many members as possible, remember?! I mean, at least one thing you've ever done should be popular, right?

I will admit that at this moment I am wearing socks though.

"How the West was Derived" (cont.)

He was a interesting fellow with a strange accent not heard in these parts. Claimed he was from Virginia. Didn't say much, but he had some really strange afflictions, chief of these was his refusal to drink water. He also refused to turn to his left, no matter if it meant a 270 degree right hand turn. He was teased a bit, but he was resolute in his ways. Nobody knew why he did these things, as he'd only repeat the words of other people, in particular some prophet or something by the name of "Goad" or something. Strange fellow.

The day he rode into town was about a week after the liberal clique had just run down and strung up some old boy who claimed to be some sort of knight. He was claiming over and over that if "A" is a member of the set "B", and "A' is also a member of the set "C", then it followed that all members of set "B" were also members of set C.

The sheriff would just push his hat back, laugh and say it was just a matter of opinion, but if that knight feller' wasn't talking about those darned communists, the law might have been involved. "Those commies don't follow western logic, so I reckon what that knight feller says could be true." He reasoned.

You see, when that ol' liberal clique gets riled up they don't kill you quick. Death by a thousand refutations is what I call it. They just use that cold hard logic in a very unwestern way until they get you to use the rope yourself. They hounded that knight feller all the way from RP ridge to the PCE canyon. Eventually the poor knight feller put a rope around his own neck, tied the other end to a tree and jumped. I hear he was claimin' that he'd be fine since his body didn't produce gravity or somethin.

Anyway, the clique got riled up over someting the no water stranger said, and came after him. One of the posse suddenly said:

Hey there you stranger
Why do you only turn right
Can you explain that?

To which the stranger replied:

" http//www.jimgoad.com "

...(to be continued ... maybe)

 

[rikzilla]

Well, I s'pose that there stranger could be a true prophet o' Goad. He don't drink no wadder...(now howizat possible?)...he leans right all the time, but that there swayback nag he's a riddin' looks like her legs is longer on one side than they is on t'other...so that there might be why he's a leanin' so far??

(Zilla pushes his cowboy hat back and scratches his haid)... He's real quick on the draw too...but he don't seem to be to dang good at hittin' anything cept'n his own di_k.

Ah must say ah like that boy tho..he got's gumpshun. Ya needs gumpshun out here in the west. Knight had gumpshun,...didn't git him nutt'n but a stretched neck...but he shore was in'tertainin'!

(Zilla gently turns his horse and rides away singing)

"Oh I'll eat when I'm hungry,
I'll drink when I'm dry,
If my horse don't fall on me,
I'll live till I die,...."

[Nie Trink Wasser]

they call me Goad, they call me Coulter, they call me 'addicted to the right'.

they call me a lot of things around these parts, but dont you worry none.

what gossip ya hear ain't always the straight talk of what's really goin down in this ole western town.

I'm a man on my own. Pale ridin and lonesome.

A man's got to have his space and a man with a sprinkling of enemies will have a good life.

just remember now, water is bad for you. Drinkin it'll kill ya.

I admit that this does tempt one to ask:

Hey, NTW, how's your PSA?

But that's really none of my business, in a very real, small way.
