The Land of Paradox
Monday, October 13th, 2008I have been noticing a lot of paradox in politics and society lately and I have come up with the following new rules:
- You cannot claim to be Pro-Life and:
- Yell, “Off with his head,” or, “Kill him” at political rallies.
- Support the death penalty.
- NOT BE a vegetarian.
- Go hunting.
- You cannot disapprove of Bush after realizing what 7 years of leadership from a religious nut job with no clue about foreign policy can do to us and:
- Support Sarah Palin.
- Not support Obama because he is ”an intelligent elitist” and not religious enough.
- You can’t accuse Obama of pulling the race card and:
- Complain about sexism when your highly unqualified VP is questioned.
- You are not allowed to complain about the cost of Democratic social programs and:
- Support a $700 Billion bailout of companies who made terrible decisions.
- Not be outraged about failure CEOs walking away with huge severance packages.
- You cannot support drilling in the ocean or wildlife preserves, poor fuel economy ratings and failure for the US to join the G8 Summit and:
- Enjoy fishing
- Go camping
- Claim to care about the environment
Excerpt from Miseduation by The Capitalist Hippie Complex:
I’m sick of excuses, scapegoats and copouts
They’ve got an answer for everything, pulling all the stops out
It’s got me rich in education for a highschool dropout
Block out propaganda, get these questions knocked out
