The Morning Rant

"So here's a NY Times food columnist singing the praises of George H.W. Bush who unfortunately passed away the day before the column was published, so he wasn't around to read how much he was loved by his enemies. Because, as we all know, there are no good Republicans other than dead ones. Also, why can't today's Republicans be like the old Republicans, i.e. not fighting back. Not that they fought back much while they were alive, except against other Republicans. Which is why they hate Trump: he hits back. Bush 41 served his country admirably in WWII, so I respect him for that. But I don't think he was a particularly good president. There, I said it. Remember, in the run-up to the 1980 GOP nomination, he used the phrase 'voodoo economics' to describe Reagan's policy proposals? At heart, Bush was no conservative, he was your archetypical 'country club Republican'. Yes, he gave us Clarence Thomas, but he also gave us David Souter, and he left the impression they were all the same to him. But aside from that, the spectacle of all the lefties boo-hooing like they lost a long-time pal is disgusting and hypocritical."

Hmmm... what does this remind me of? Perhaps this:

When the people saw that Moses delayed to come down from the mountain, the people gathered themselves together to...Aaron [who] said to them, "Take off the rings of gold that are in the ears of your wives, your sons, and your daughters, and bring them to me." So all the people took off the rings of gold that were in their ears and brought them to Aaron. And he received the gold from their hand and fashioned it with a graving tool and made a golden calf. And they said, "These are your gods, O Israel, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt!"
(Exodus 32:1-4)

Yes, I think a giant golden hoo-hah is an appropriate idol for our progressive generation.

SCIENCE!

An Analogy So Bad...
