This And That. And That, Too.



I'm just doing a little blog housekeeping today... updating the blogroll, making a few format changes, etc.

  • Check out DDot's Rants for more of the same kind of Christian conservative liberal-baiting you'll find here. He has a great litmus test link, where you'll learn, among other things, that:
    -To be a good democrat, you have to believe the AIDS virus is spread by a lack of federal funding.
    -To be a good democrat, you have to believe that guns in the hands of law-abiding Americans are more of a threat than U.S. nuclear weapons technology in the hands of Chinese communists.
    -To be a good democrat, you have to believe that hunters don't care about nature, but loony activists who've never been outside of Seattle do.

  • You might have noticed that Wendy and I have done the hip, trendy blog button thing at our blogs, and we have this great little button generator to thank.

  • I've added a few blogs to the Disparate Blogs subheading...The Dawn Of Man has posted a number of things that I've enjoyed. Redphi5h and I probably don't see eye-to-eye politically, but a lot of what I've read there has been fun. I've also enjoyed some of what I've read at The Wet Noodle... it's not an overtly political blog, but Martin, the blogger, has some interesting things to say.


  • Updating my blogroll is usually a sketchy process... there's always a blog or two that I forget to add. Being married to another blogger makes it tricky, too.... because sometimes I click on blogs that Wendy has bookmarked, not realizing that they aren't on my blogroll even though I've intended to add them. Anyway, I've just realized that Willow Crossing isn't in my blogroll, even though I read it fairly frequently. Kristine has a smart, interesting perspective. Her recent post about foolproof ways for guys to pick up chicks literally had Wendy and me laughing out loud. And, here's the clincher...now and then she'll get off on a rant that I enjoy and agree with, such as:
    (Liberals) bother me because these liberals walk around, safe in the knowledge that theirs is the popular view and that everyone who disagrees with them is just filled with hate. They know that nobody will ever call them on the hypocrisy because it's too un-PC. They have slowly but surely taken over the zeitgeist of our country and twisted it toward their own depraved agenda. And if you don't blindly jump on board, you're just a big mean meanie....

    I've said it before. Most of the people on the left constantly harp on and on about diversity. But God forbid it be diversity of thought. That, they cannot tolerate. You're allowed to be a different color. It's OK to be a different religion (unless it happens to be Christian). It's OK to be of a different sexual orientation. Hey, whatever floats your boat. But what is not OK is suggesting that people take care of themselves and be strong. It's not OK to disagree with anything anyone does in the name of tolerance.

    Well, now THAT was a rant if ever there was one. I feel better now.

    Whew! I feel better, too!

    Funny, good hodge-podge post.
    Thanks for the link to Kristine. I agree, she's funny!
    And she's right too!
     
    Kristine rocks! She's got mad skills and a sweet ride.
