imagine no liberals...

i just can't seem to string much together by way of posting here. but i have some fun ideas and thoughts just waiting to be articulated in this format. ...but it's the time that's killing me.

anyway, as i'm sure most of you are aware of what's been going on in the aftermath of arizona shootings. since it is not the fault of global warming, the blame for such horrific acts must be placed upon the next based scapegoat - because it's always someone else to blame in addition to the person who is out of his mind - so let's blame the conservatives. they like guns. ...unfortunately it it not enough for most to simply say someone is out of their mind.

if you can remember the last time i posted something of a political nature here, you should know something about my beliefs since then. they haven't changed - i'm an engebretson. so in the midst of what looks to be a fairly laid back j-term class i'm home tonight browsing some political sites that i enjoy.

that's when i came across an article entitled 'sometimes a tragedy is just a tragedy' on the weekly standard. and yes, i agree with the gist of the title. the only problem: i never got past the fifth paragraph.

here's why in picture form:




notice the advertisement in the second pic. if you can't read it, the gal's t-shirt says "imagine no liberals." although i don't agree with the thoughtless attempts to score political points in the first few seconds after a tragedy, this is - if nothing else - ironic.
