COATHANGERS AGAIN!

The sequel to the hilarious coathanger story here

ILLEGAL ALIENS

It looks like the USA could learn a lot from Australia. There is a bill at present before Congress that would legalize millions of illegal immigrants — people who have broken US law and should not be rewarded for it.

Australia locks such people up until they can be sent back to where they came from!

POST-MODERNISM

Joe Willingham has emailed me with the thought that “post-modernists” are Fascists in the Mussolini mould too:

“Postmodernists (pomos) claim that there is no objective truth, there is only interpretation, and that it all depends on who is in power. According to the pomos, we are so biased by our race, class, and gender that knowledge is impossible. The postmodernists allow freedom of speech only for those who share their leftist political views in issues like feminism, affirmative action, and free enterprise versus socialism. They hire and fire on the basis of ideology rather than scholarship, and they try to prevent speakers of whose views they’re don’t approve from appearing on campus.

The subjectivist epistemology, the idea that power and not reason is the key to the “construction of reality” - all that is classic fascism. It is no accident that one of the pomos’ favorite philosophers is the German Nazi sympathizer Martin Heidegger. Nor is it an accident that anti-Semitism is becoming trendy in European and American leftist circles“.

I do not think I have ever met a post-modernist so cannot say how right Joe is — but I would welcome any emails on the subject. I certainly hear echoes of D’Annunzio (Mussolini’s predecessor) in what Joe describes. Maybe Cinderella Bloggerfeller
will enlighten me. He seems to be the No. 1 expert on literary and cultural Leftism.

RUSSIA�S PUTIN AND ISLAM

I am in total agreement with Bovination�s post on President Putin�s handling of the Chechen terrorists. And I love his conclusion: �Thank you Allah�

ROGER SAUSE ON �DEZIS�

Don�t miss my exclusive here on the latest thoughts of Roger Sause. He is the author of Left for Dead… A Digital Manifesto in which he brings his unusual perspective as a Los Angeles musician to bear on the Fascism of the modern-day Left.

GOVERNMENT ILLITERACY

We all know how appalling governments can be most of the time but they are clearly getting worse and worse. I think it is indicative of the low level of care now being exercised by the Australian government bureaucracy that they do not even bother to get basic grammar right these days. The literature you get with your tax return forms from the Australian government this year includes a leaflet that offers in large letters on its front cover: �Get your tax back quick�. Yes, I am not making it up. There was no-one in a vast government bureaucracy that knew when to use �quick� and when to use �quickly�! We have government by ignoramuses. No doubt they were all educated in government schools too.
