...which I recommend to anyone who wants to start understanding the true nature of these people.

My favorite part? My full-body clench when an AOG activist, Bob Lokey, describes how one night God guided his hand as he circumcised himself with a razor blade. He doesn't mention medical care afterward, but he does speak glowingly of feeling free from lust for women afterward. Which I suppose is for the best, given what he's probably left with.

A lot of them talk of how important it is for them to separate themselves both from women, or from thoughts toward and attraction toward them. One young guy in particular, who was no different than an Al-Quaeda recruit except insofar as he was Christian and American, obsessed over this. And the more he did, the more his obvious readiness to bomb a clinic increased.

And then there's Neil Horsley throughout, famous for proudly admitting he once screwed cows.

Throughout you rarely see women, if at all. These men are not fathers. They haven't GOT babies. Mostly they live alone; Horsley lives with another man.

So this is interesting, because for them "babies" are an abstract. And women are something to be feared, for whatever reason. And the more they deny themselves the more ferocious their commitment to violence becomes; they speak throughout openly of how impatient they are to blow up a clinic or kill a doctor, in the same manner as others might be excited about a movie premiere.

It isn't about babies for them. Not really.

Because it's taught in schools, which are part of the conspiracy. Duh! Haven't you been paying attention to them?

Salon, please get rid of this. It doesn't help. I feel like I'm reading Dana Perino's press releases.

I think I know who GW(hm) is: Michael Steele.

No matter who won, though we now know who must have. No government that resorts to this against its own people is legitimate.

The mullahs and president have destroyed themselves. I am wondering if they will manage now to keep their army under control. This is not Iraq. (and we should not, not, NOT intervene) These are people who had the illusion they had some say over their government and now have had it proved they do not. And I do not think they will be as callow as we were about it.

Absolutely so.

Unlike conservatives, most of us aren't adherents to Unified Cults of Personality.

He's ordered a probe into voter fraud, thus admitting the possibility. And, perhaps, he's realized how stupid all this was as he would have remained supreme leader either way, had he let the people keep the illusion that their votes counted. Now it's too late. I wonder if he can get the toothpaste back into the tube.

Fuck the ban, they're saying.

I like these students. They've got themselves some balls.

But beyond that, is there anything he can actually do about it?

And why is Salon, like the MSM, only giving this event token coverage? People are being killed by the government. The protesters are trying to get the message out. And you're, well, updating now and then.

This is why old journalism is dead.

Here's what Salon is skimming. This is a picture of one of the murders the Iranian government committed today.

Thanks, Salon, for pushing this subject to the top.

And I wish American Fascist would go away.

And Salon pushes it back down, and instead has something about white men dating Asian women. With history occurring, and the internet showing that the MSM has dropped the ball, it's depressing to see Salon on the wrong side of media history.

With history happening in Iran and students there needing the word to be gotten out, why is this story at the top?

Come on Joan, you even talked about it on HARDBALL. Surely that makes it important enough.

Iran is exploding. Ahmadinejad has left the country, possibly to keep his hands clean of a massacre, and you have this bullshit at the TOP of the page? And have pretty much since this afternoon?

What is wrong with you?
