"Anecdotal." I always wonder why liberals, who claim to care about the individual, always dismiss the stories of real flesh and blood people as "merely anecdotal." I wonder if they would feel themselves to be "merely anecdotal" if their own experiences and concerns were so brusquely dismissed from consideration.

Hollywood types and Washington babies are all for freedom of the press-- so long as they think only the "right" kind of people will be able to afford it.

The creation of the internet was the creation of our politicians' and media moguls' worst nightmare-- a cheap, easy-to-use, and truly global medium that they can neither shout down nor of which they can gain exclusive control....

The real reason that the aristocracy of Hollywood and Washington D.C. fear and hate the internet has nothing to do with loving concern for me and you, and everything to do with the fact that they cannot personally control it.

Funny how the people who can't seem to comprehend the legal definition of pornography have no trouble actually finding it.

Look to Japan and Holland and other nations which have cast off even the limited moral restraints of our own society. They have fewer sex crimes on the books-- but only because many of the obscene assaults we condemn in America are no longer sex crimes in those lands. They have not seen a reduction in those behaviors, they have merely seen fewer of them actively condemned as crimes.... Fewer still are those that are reported to authorities--- why should a civic force which has loosened moral strictures across the board care about your "minor" problem, after all?--- and a higher percentage of the remaining forms of sexual assault are increasingly degrading and violent.....

Yes, animals in the wild engage in apparent homosexual behavior. Animals in the wild also sleep naked in trees and eat their own poop. You'll pardon me if I think neither behavior is worthy of emulation.

How far can porn possibly go? I've seen people peddling every possible and impossible fetish imaginable-- stuff so grotesque, so bizarre it defies description.... Sooner or later they're going to reach a point where they're not going to think they got their porn-dollar's worth till they see someone literally turn inside out and explode.

The reason liberals are throwing such a screaming fit over standardized testing in public schools is obvious: Nothing infuriates a man intent on cheating you more than using a ruler and a scale to measure his product.

Washington is such a mess because most American voters are making political decisions with a broken bullsh*t detector.

I met a socialist who angrily proclaimed that the rich and greedy people in the west have always exploited the poor people in the east. I answered with the question "Why exploit the poor when the rich is a such more enticing target?"

Che Guevara is a good socialistic symbol for the humanitarian struggle of equal rights, if you just also forget that he was a murderous bastard.
