Favorite poster from NR's "The Corner"

;_;

"Despair, as a spiritual force, is the most powerful weapon that gay-marriage proponents wield."

get out of here with this

forceclovetofu

======D~espair is a spiritual weapon, and it is the gay-marriage movement's single most powerful weapon.

despair is a single, gay, weapon of powerful semicolons, singular in their movement

forks your sentences suck

Despair is a spiritual weapon, man
It is the gay-marriage movement's single most powerful weapon, man

a long, powerful weapon

for fucks sake
can we all agree that it is a fucking nonsensical sentiment so I can go back to editing press releases?

Everyone stop being tedious

somebody's on his period

Everbody: stop being tedious!

Everbody: come on and dance and sing!

Clap Your Hands? Say Yeah!

how about these commas

re: 'Railing [Kathryn Jean Lopez]

It has achieved some legal improvement and contributed to a decline in the abortion rate. If you care about such things, that's not nothing. In fact, it's lifesaving.

oh good she goes off the page and talks about nuns! http://tv.nationalreview.com/offthepage/post/?q=NmYzOTNmM2QzNTY4NWU2MWRiMDM4ZTNlNmFkMGZmZDA=

"'Railing"? What was abbreviated here?

How Do You Solve a Problem Like K-Lo?

i have NO clue what 'railing is

something that has achieved some legal improvement

thank you, answers.com

maggie gallagher really deserves for her kid(s) to end up gay as fuck

I know why people say this, but I hope this is not the case because look at the way Alan Keyes has treated his poor daughter.

nothing is abbreviated, she just dumb, i think it references this earlier post

Thirty years of railing against abortion hasn't accomplished much, has it?

Railing [Kathryn Jean Lopez]

i thought it was short for derailing

surprised that mr. que is not into Railing [Kathryn Jean Lopez]

Re: Conservative Values Conflict [Kathryn Jean Lopez]

There's no conflict. If you want to assume humans have no reason and can't be encouraged to exercise sexual discipline for the sake of self-respect, if nothing else — which I do not — there is another a word that avoids the "abort or be a single-mother" distraction equation: adoption.

That's not always an easy solution. But it actually is one that avoids ending a human life.

Does she consider all forms of birth control abortion?

i think she does because the pope does

does the pope shit in the woods?

lol xp

what an incredibly stupid person

seriously

k-lo hinting at sexual discipline is like some fattey internet basement dweller claiming he wouldn't sleep with padma or something

If you want to assume humans have no reason and can't be encouraged to exercise sexual discipline for the sake of self-respect

"sexual discipline" is one of the 90s prince tracks right?

"like some" xp

I understand if you disapprove of contraception and think abstinence is the way to go; seriously, I do! I do not understand pretending that contraception doesn't exist; I mean, it seems that if you are already coming from the standpoint of "people who have sex outside of marriage are no-good hedonistic sinners", you would actually want to encourage them all to use birth control in order to cut down on their numbers.

or you could insist that all sexual activity means a loss of self-respect, and hope everybody behaves themselves out of shame. i mean, it's worth a try i guess!

She really seems pissed off by Derbyshire's last post; if the Corner was a rom com they would end up hooking up pretty soon.

i gotta say that screen shot of her on the nun video. . really makes her look like. . let's just say. . . i don't want anyone to get mad at me. . . let's just say she looks like she could be in the last twenty minutes of Ghostbusters. . .

okay I shouldn't have gone on there to see the spat because now I am just pissed all over again at the completely false assertion that African-Americans have more abortions than white people

here's derb (edited):

Conservative Values Conflict [John Derbyshire]

As to your assertion that:

The notion that abortion is pro-family because it reduces single motherhood is hard to reconcile with the fact that demographic groups with the highest rates of abortion — such as, say, the African-American community — also have the highest rates of single-parent households …

It seems to me rather easy to reconcile. A high-abortion-rate community with high rates of single-family households, would presumably have even more such households but for abortion. There's your reconciliation right there. Was it really so hard?

The guy is pointing up a conflict between two conservative values: the pro-family one, and the anti-abortion one. He thinks the pro-family one should have more weight. People who think abortion is a profound wrong will of course disagree, duh, but they might still acknowledge the conflict. And other conservatives might, like Half Sigma come down on the other side, for pragmatic reasons, there being at least some possibility of progress there. Thirty years of railing against abortion hasn't accomplished much, has it?

evidence in favor of my hunch that a lot of the corner crowd is RMDE with k-lo...

sorry D@n :/

Gun Control on Military Bases [Michael Ledeen]

Lots of folks have wondered why there weren't more soldiers with guns at Ft. Hood, and I'm one of them. Our younger Marine is home for the weekend from The Basic School at Quantico, and Barbara and I asked him if there were Marines with guns on the base. There are. Lots of them. And they move around all the time, checking places where Marines congregate, from classrooms to outdoor obstacle courses and parade fields and barracks. Apparently it occurred to the base commander some time ago that it was a bad idea to leave his men and women unprotected.

wtf

Re ‘Two Profiles in Class’ [Jay Nordlinger]

Since January 20, I have thought occasionally of that famous JFK putdown of Nixon: “No class.” I thought of it when President Obama knocked George W. Bush on foreign soil — to a group of Turkish students. I thought of it when he laughed his head off at a death-to-Rush joke. I thought of it when he told those New York donors that Republicans can’t think for themselves. And I’ve thought of it now that he has slimed conservative protesters as “teabaggers.”

Remember when we were told that the best thing about Barack Obama would be his temperament? I’m not sure it’s better than his policies.

Remember when we were told that the best thing about Barack Obama would be his temperament? I’m not sure it’s better than his policies; it certainly isn't better than succulent childflesh in a sex swing.

sex sling, you mean

Kingfish! These are CHILDREN we're talking about here!
