A good article...........got my mind off of Sponge-Bob
Jonah Goldberg has a good article on ‘crunchy conservatives’ on NRO.
I shall print this out for breakfast conversation tomorrow morning.
We will probably start with “The fact that many of these crunchy cons don't like Republican or libertarian environmental policies has nothing to do with the fact they shop at Fresh Fields and everything to do with the fact they don't like Republican or libertarian environmental policies. The fact these people homeschool is immensely significant because homeschooling is immensely significant. That some homeschoolers wear Grateful Dead T-shirts is a trivial fact at best. And, to the extent it's not trivial, we might question how great it is that conservatives adopt the sloth fashion of the 60s counterculture.” That should keep things lively for quite a while.
I already explained that we were having organic broccoli because the store is always out of just plain old broccoli florets. It is not a political statement. What’s a mother to do?
And political statements..........
I am looking forward to election day just to see the end of the useless stream of politcal junk mail. (As a printer’s daughter, it’s nice to know that their business is good. Otherwise, it is just depressing. And messy, if one doesn’t have the discipline to tote it all straight to the trash) The candidates have reminded my of their consistent dedication to supporting a “woman’s right to choose.” So I know who not to vote for......
