If a leftist expressed new-age spirituality and uttered the
Zen idea that he was one with the Universe, I’d certainly believe him. What
else could explain liberals’ seeming inability to know where their body ends
and someone else’s begins?
For instance, while abortion is justified with the battle
cry “My body, my choice!” it is in reality a matter of what will happen to a
body within the chooser’s body. Yet another example of this leftist tendency to
confuse bodies as much as choices is the ObamaCare contraception mandate.

A birdcage liner in my county of Westchester, NY, The Journal News, has made national
headlines by releasing the addresses of county residents licensed to own a
handgun. The paper claims that in the wake of the Newtown shooting, citizens
want to know more about the arsenals their neighbors may possess. Of course,
the rag’s real motivation is obvious: it wants to “out” firearms owners. The
thinking is, “Hey, you want to own a gun? Then we’re going to put you in the
pusillanimous people’s pillory, where all things manly and traditional belong.”
Hence the title of the Journal piece,
“The gun owner next door,” which could be followed with “The pedophile next
door” or “The terrorist next door.” Ooh, scary. I’m more worried about the
journalist next door.
Not surprisingly, the paper is taking a lot of heat for
revealing who is packing heat. And one of the more common criticisms reveals a
truth.

Since removing constitutional rights is all the rage now, I have to ask:
when does dislocation from reality become severe enough to justify
involuntary commitment? A good study case is NYC’s Mayor Michael
Bloomberg, who recently uttered a real gem on his weekly radio show.
Writes Politicker.com:
“I don’t think there’s anybody that’s defended the Second Amendment as
much as I have, Ray,” Mr. Bloomberg said to a caller who asked him why
he was “so against” the constitutional passage. “I think you have a
perfect right to buy weapons and keep them for protection or for sport.
We have tried to make sure that you have it.”
Well, take that, Wayne LaPierre. You thought you were the point man on
gun rights, but you’re actually outshone by Little Big Gulp, who has
defended the Second Amendment more than “anybody.”
This song is almost 60 years old, and it has only recently been discovered what the bah-dah, bah-dah, bah-dah referenced are.
Liberals!
Listen to the song and weight in on whether this rings true. I believe it. Liberals are everywhere, it seems, and whenever they render opinion, it always sounds the same: bah-dah, bah-dah, bah-dah!
