Tours de Farce: Instant Analysis
Take today, for instance. We had such great plans. We were going to examine President Bush’s proposal for Social Security. We were going to dedicate a portion of this space to money management, private accounts, and how the current system might go up in smoke faster than the 2002 Guns N’ Roses tour. Yeah, it was going to be one of the most detailed summaries of the subject to be found anywhere on the Web. What happened? We got bogged down in researching the Zooma Tour starring Ben Harper and Trey Anastasio. That’s what happened.
And we had planned on taking a close, hard look at the judiciary problem, and how “activist” judges constantly reinterpret the Constitution to bring it in line with their own misguided liberal ideology. We were going to pour over court cases, written opinions and Supreme Court judgements as we presented a sound argument for reining in the judiciary until it starts doing what we know is right. Serious stuff, for sure. However, we ended up posting the dates for the Hot Tuna – Acoustic tour, instead.
And we were going to scrutinize the state of today’s media, and how the Hollywood Left constantly floods print, movies and the airwaves with an insidious message chock-full of obscene language and partially clad bodies all wrapped up in a package that’s dripping with sex, sex and more sex, and how it’s all an evil conspiracy to destroy America’s moral fiber. However, we got so caught up in adding dates for Crosby, Stills & Nash, that we couldn’t finish our 10,000-word piece on the matter.
Yeah, we had a lot of plans for today. We were going to discuss the liberal bias in today’s news organizations, how the Democrats have declared war on “people of faith,” and how the entire country will go to hell in a hand basket if we don’t eliminate the liberal scourge from our society once and for all. We were going to tell you about the scheme to discredit great Americans like Tom DeLay, or the Bolton Brothers, John and Michael. Yeah, we were going to be Rush, Hannity and Coulter all rolled into one as we expressed our support for tax cuts for the rich, further consolidation of media ownership and how today’s Democrats are evil, evil, EVIL!
Yeah, we were going to do all of that, but updating the schedules for Natalie Cole, Drowning Pool and Coldplay kind of got in the way. Guess we’ll have to wait for another day before we can endlessly pontificate about matters on which we absolutely know nothing about.
