Really. <BR/><BR/>But this truly conservative treatment of the self-pitying colored guy who thinks all his troubles are because people are prejudiced against him requires one to hold it up to a mirror so many times that one loses track of right and left.

(Say for example, to a "reasonable conservative" like yourself!)<BR/><BR/>This of course does not mean that we should judge the progressive. We shouldn't. But if we must judge them we are told, then we must do so by those old-fashioned principles of moral charity which they themselves reject.<BR/><BR/>This is a well-know rule.<BR/><BR/>Even if there is no God, and even if all metaphysics are mere superstition with a philosophical patina, we are still obligated to act as if the lefty shares some fundamental and essential humanity that amounts to more than an arbitrary typology. And even if there is some seeming evidence that they are a kind of genetic mutant preying on the rest of the "race" from within, we still must pretend. It's the rule.<BR/><BR/>There might even be a good reason for that rule for all I know.<BR/><BR/>Now, all that said, and all those genuflections having been made to archaic principles that no good modernist left or right can take seriously (unless he needs to reassure the leftists in the polity that they are really, really, honestly, regarded as fellow humans); it is interesting to consider how the logic would roll out if we applied the principle of utility to the progressives, in the same way that they apply it to everyone else ...<BR/><BR/>But then, as we all know, that is not permitted.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19959879.post-7542821462653808862007-10-03T08:36:00.000-07:002007-10-03T08:36:00.000-07:00Sir,I see now that in my righteous anger I made so...Sir,<BR/><BR/>I see now that in my righteous anger I made some typos in my post.

That is why I disciplined myself to study hard (GPA = 4.0!), save my money, and pass as a white person, in order to attend that prestigious Ivy League school. I can't begin to tell you how may Bar Mitzvahs I had to endure as a young man. Not that I regret this; I knew that it was as sacrifice that I had to make to gain entry into a traditionally racially segregated organization (by which I mean, not Yale, but the Skull and Bones Society).<BR/><BR/>Imagine my distress when at the very moment of my triumph I was elbowed aside by Clarence Thomas, who was registered under some sort of Liberalist racial quota. I ended up having to attend a second tier Ivy League school and after graduation have had to settle for running a cheesy neo-con think tank, while this upstart has taken my rightful seat on the Supreme Court.<BR/><BR/>And the irony is, I don't even believe that Justice Thomas is really Black. I mean, look at those suspenders! He is quite like just one of many dark skinned Caucasians who have managed to jump aboard the affirmative action gravy train.<BR/><BR/>As far as I am concerned, Clarence Thomas can kiss my natural Off White ass.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19959879.post-77254339287339618402007-10-03T05:52:00.000-07:002007-10-03T05:52:00.000-07:00If I had a blogger party, I'd invite you.If I had a blogger party, I'd invite you.Miss Cellaniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16056319889765739429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19959879.post-59109086462770813362007-10-03T03:10:00.000-07:002007-10-03T03:10:00.000-07:00Don't worry about mixing up the photographs.
