Look What They've Done To My Right Wing

I was a right winger when right wingers were right. I'm talking Barry Goldwater, Robert Taft, Walter Judd, Claire Booth Luce, William Knowland, Fulton Lewis Jr., Dean Manion, Ezra Taft Benson, etc. Not Joe McCarthy. He was anti-communist, but his voting record was both left and right. Pat Buchanan fit in, until recently. He seems to have gone soft a tad now, but Pat made a wise observation: "The conservative movement has been hijacked." Yup. They ran off with our clothes.

Who can stand to be on the right today? Wars, deficits, corruption, Constitution-shunning, secret deals, and feeding a Frankenstein government are not right wing traits.

George W. Bush goes under the label, but he doesn't belong. Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice, and their puppets on radio and in print are not genuine right wingers. They're just mean and crazy, that's not enough.

Labels have to go. They confuse, misidentify, and enable deception.

Watch who you're calling a right wing conservative. Once a badge of honor, it's a disgrace.


Thoughts While Jaywalking

* Yesterday: I'd take my dog for a walk, he'd search for a quiet spot to do his thing, and he'd kick dirt on it. Today: I watch my neighbor take his dog for a walk, the dog doesn't kick dirt on it and his master puts it into a bag and carries it home. Which one is trained? What does the dog think of his master?

* The Swiss, the Swedes, the French, and the Spanish learned how to be neutral and live in peace. Will we, ever? Peace and neutrality save lives, misery and money.

* St. George smog report for today is unclear because the chemtrails are mixing with the smog. The last time this happened it rained for three days.
