Interesting article in The Other Paper last week focusing on our (Democratic) Governor Ted Strickland’s marksmanship and subsequent high marks from the NRA. Although I’ve got an opinion or three on the issue, it’s not really an issue for me. What fascinated me was the unabashed contrarian position taken by The Gov vis-a-vis his party’s line. So rarely does this happen!
For instance, I can’t find a single Hillary supporter who thinks that Florida and Michigan should be excluded from the delegate vote. I can’t find a single Obama supporter who thinks that they shouldn’t. Back in 2000 there was nary a Democrat who thought that Florida and the courts were on the path to Truth after the election. There wasn’t a Republican to be found who thought otherwise.
Doesn’t anyone think for themselves anymore? How can we trust people with guns when we can’t even trust them to think? For that matter, how can we trust them to raise children? Even in Texas?
Anyway, the real reason for this post is just for a chance to post this:
The moral of the story: Like a pink Kalashnikov, the Trigger of Truth might be a mash-up we’re all afraid to fire.
I was reading in the Dayton paper (online) that one of the Democratic state senators from Akron finally “got” Castle Doctrine when he realized it applied to the baseball bat he keeps under the bed. The light bulb went on…
Castle Doctrine, it’s for cricket bats too!
Hey Bryan — I thought this post might get your attention! Where does one get a pink AK anyway? (besides Photoshop…)
