Libertarians, My Libertarians!
Cruel to be kind means that I love you . Because, while I think you are mistaken, your hearts are in the right place -- yes, even you, Silas -- unlike some people . This Breitbart fellow (discussed in the link above), by all appearances, deliberately doctored a video of Shirley Sherrod to make her remarks appear virulently racist, when they had, in fact, the opposite import. I heard that at a recent Austrian conference, some folks were talking about "Callahan's conservative turn." While that description is not entirely inaccurate, I must say that a lot of these people who today call themselves conservative give me the heebie-jeebies.
Did I complain to you when I got my ticket on the subway? I was "troubled grad school Bob" and passed out on the subway coming home from a bar. A cop woke me up at the final stop. I was literally the only person on the car. He gave me a ticket for taking up more than one seat.
ReplyDeleteGood story. No, i never heard it.
DeleteWhy did they let him turn them away?
ReplyDeleteNobody asked. People are often afraid to do so: the person being asked might be set to blow!
