Welcome to the Far Wright

Did Saddam Hussein have WMD’s stockpiled prior to the invasion? Should we consider amnesty for the up to 12 million illegal aliens currently residing in the U.S.? Will Al Gore be remembered as a modern day Paul Revere, warning us of the impending doom of global warming; or, is he a total nutcase and more likely to remembered as the Chicken Little of our time?

If you want answers to these questions and cutting edge analysis of modern events---go visit Hugh Hewitt, Powerline, or any of the other thousands of blogs where people are more intelligent than I am. What I want to know is, “Why do birds suddenly appear, anytime you are near?”

I don’t spend my time thinking and worrying about whether CO2 emissions are going to kill off the lemur population of Indonesia over the next 10,000 years. I do however spend time thinking about things such as how the songwriters came up with such a goofy phrase, and why is it that some human beings love the song---Close to You, and others may absolutely detest it.

In my humble opinion, the gulf that exists between a liberal and a conservative is not nearly as wide as the gulf between people in regards to their taste in any of the arts. Case in point—Crucifix in a glass full of piss. On one hand, you have some snob who can give a twenty minute recitation on the underlying theme and cultural impact that this great work of art has wrought upon humanity. These people consider themselves culturally superior to the vast majority. On the other hand, those of us who do spend most of our lives on planet earth look at this piece of junk (art), and wonder what kind of drugs this artist was taking, and how could this con-artist possibly make money doing something that a six year old might come up with on a boring summer day.

To paraphrase that great entrepreneur, PT Barnum, there’s a liberal art lover born every minute. I haven’t decided on the exact theme of this blog as of yet, but you can bet your sweet bippy that highlighting the insanity and inanity of the left is going to be foremost in a lot of my writing.
