My Mommy is a Democrat; your Momma wears combat boots — 41 Comments

  1. Jesus fuck, this is what gets conservatives upset? just when i thought it wasn’t possible for human beings to have their heads farther up their asses, I run across a post like this…

    Excuse my French (I’m a liberal, you know), but my sincere suggestion would be for y’all to get a fucking life. Just STOP dressing up like Ann Coulter and Karl Rove and butt-fucking each other with loaded shotguns, ok? Why? Because it annoys the piss out of me, that’s why.

    Love,

    your mom

  2. Wierd piece of propaganda…but they screwed up a bit; squirrels are just about the dumbest creatures on the planet, only barely edging out lemmings and your average college know-it-all hippie.

  3. All this is perfect illustration to generally poorly understood truth: modern Liberalism is not a political or philosophic teaching; it is (psychologically) a religion of some kind. Of a very strange and perverse kind, I will say, because it openly and obsessively denies its true nature. In contrast to any other known religion, it does not insist to be based on words of a prophet, or long-standing tradition, or some other irrational source of knowledge – it pretends to be objective, rational and scientifically verifiable. This self-deception leads to many ugly consequences. First, those who do not believe the same are viewed as mentally retarded, crazy or morally corrupt: why else they refuse to understand and accept such obvious things? They must be liars and hypocrites, striving for some selfish goals. So the second consequence is intolerance; and the third – aggression coming from bad conscience: the very existence of an opponent that can’t be completely rationalized out is unbearable challenge. So vandalism of anti-capitalism activists is a quite natural outcome.

  4. What is it modern day progressives have against dads, intact families, manhood, etc.?

    That’s because women don’t need men to fight for them anymore. Men are not expendable, and neither is a woman’s fertility days expendable as baby producers.

    In the New Society that the utopians are creating, men will be tasked with metrosexuality and women will be the workers and the purveyors of social virtue. Women, being far less aggressive and war prone than men, will be placed as the unquestioned leader in this new social heirarchy. Instead of a patriarchy, the new utopia will be a matriarchy.

    In some ways, humanity will become an insect hive, in which all workers are female and men are only needed to produce sperm. Which, if you read Maureen Dowd, is something she is hoping for.

    It is natural for some women to want to upstage the men in the power struggle, but I don’t think they understand just what it means.

    Those that do, usually go into the military.

    Those that don’t, usually come to value themselves so highly that they are unwilling to share anything with anyone else (i.e. Hollywood).

  5. “Curious George” came up a couple of times, and the movie is just coming out.

    Let’s see if there’s any pipe-smoking in it.

  6. Van, as I recall, my own staunchly Democratic dad was quite blunt in his criticisms of all politicians, whether they were Republican or Democrat! He didn’t spare his own party, if he thought they’d done something dumb. I learned a lot about politics from him. (And if someone had given me a book like, “Why Mommy is a Democrat” he’d’ve chucked it in the trash.)

    and MikeZ, yes, I noticed the absence of a father in the story too, and was bothered by it. What is it modern day progressives have against dads, intact families, manhood, etc.?

    The old books are the best, douglas! My son loves “Curious George” and Dr. Seuss, and fairy tales, and all that good stuff.

    (One thing that bothers me about modern kid’s books is the fact that so many of them, even for older kids, depend so heavily on pictures to tell the story. Look at an old St. Nicholas magazine, or a 19th—early 20th century kid’s book; there are just more words there!)

  7. What ever happened to the old Curious George books, where capturing wildlife from Africa was still o.k., and you could show a man smoking a pipe, or for that matter, George could smoke a pipe with the Man with the Yellow Hat…
    or better still, the old Grimms Fairy tales- before modern PC editors…
    Good stuff!

  8. benning76:
    “How sad that someone thought this was something that needed to be done. What a sad commentary on this nation.”

    Nope. Sad commentary on liberals. The rest of us dont need constant cradle to grave ideological reinforcement.

    It could be worse. I understand Daniel Ortega had school children learning arithmetic by counting pictures of rifles and grenades in the text books produced by his Sandinista people’s utopia.

  9. Van–that’s quite a response.

    On the other hand, at least you got a response. The author’s probably a bit surprised that he’s getting so much attention around the blogosphere.

  10. Did anyone notice the absence of father from the story? 2-parent families are just so-o-o-o old-fashioned.

    Along the way, I came across this book by James Clavell (which I hadn’t heard of ’til today):

    Children’s Story

  11. Here I was, rereading some Dr. Seuss books. Real books for kids! Loved ’em then, got a kick out of ’em just now. 😀

    How sad that someone thought this was something that needed to be done. What a sad commentary on this nation.

    Yeesh!

  12. Just in case anyone is interested, I received a reply to my complaint letter:

    “Thomas

    Well, I’m appalled that Democratic parents are willing to let their children grow up to believe there’s nothing good about the Democratic party. If Democratic parents aren’t willing to say something nice about the party to their children, what message do you suppose that sends to young, impressionable children? (And most young kids DO know the party exists. Just ask them.) Do you really want children learning about the Democratic party by watching the ridiculous partisan name-calling on Fox TV, MSNBC, etc.? Perhaps that’s why so many Americans these days grow up believing that parties are evil and don’t have any agenda other than insulting the other party and winning elections. I don’t think that’s healthy for our democracy.”

    –This is the same type of trash, but on the opposite end!
    Neither of these books should have published. Both are deplorable.

  14. Thanks for this post.
    As a Democrat I am appalled by the theme of this book. The author seems to have no guilt about using propaganda to indoctrinate impressionable children. This is a deplorable scheme and should be exposed for what it is, an attempt to politicize our children!

    I can’t even imagine the type of person that would subscribe to this type of filth.
    I would never allow something like this in my home, let alone read it to my child.

    If the goal is to teach children the benefits of living in an egalitarian society, then wait until they are at least old enough to think for themselves a little – geez!

    I urge any parents here to write the publisher, I certainly intend to.

  15. “Aren’t sqirrels the ones that hide their nuts and can’t find them again?”

    I think that just about wraps up the Dem’s problem.

    In a nutsack^H^H^H^Hshell.

  16. So, Democrats=squirrels? Simple, yet elegant…and I’ve got a shotgun!

    When’s Democrat, er, squirrel season?!
    (Guess I need a license, too)

  17. Aren’t sqirrels the ones that hide their nuts and can’t find them again? It sounds like the democrats – except this time they’ve hidden their common sense.

  18. You know, if the blogsphere keeps working this book this hard he’s going to sell 50,000 copies to Republicans.

  19. Errr…. I *think* it was the Anchoress who got the award for best Political Catholic blog.

    But this book should get its own award. Why not? It breaks new ground in blather — and that’s hard to do.

  20. Congratulations on a very funny post. And, via word from The Anchoress, congratulations on your award.

  21. Right Wing News had a “Make “Up the Best Line From the Book” contest.

    The best one was

    “Mommy, how come you take half my paper route money away and give it to the lazy kid next door who just watches cartoons all day?” — by poster CavalierX

  22. Obviously yhe mommy in the book is a Democrat because she’s a squirrel. If she was a human being, she’d be a Republican
    😉

  23. And while we’re on that page … Why is that elephant charging the strange man in the park wearing the overcoat. I bet there’s a newspaper hanging out of his pocket (on the otherside) and you know what I mean.

    God, this is like hunting doves in a baited field.

  24. I want to write my own tome “Why Mommy Invited Hitler To Dinner,” the story of how one sweet mommy turned Adoph Hitler into a kind, caring and sharing multiculturalist.

    Songs, poetry and a pot luck dinner of international vegetarian-only favorites does the trick, every time.

    Right? Hey, it could happen.

  25. I agree with Frank. I’d a Democrat living my fireplace. It packed it full of pinecones and flamable Democrat fur. After we trapped it and set it free in the forest, we then had to sweep the chimney to clean after everthing the little democrat did (which is what Republicans do, I s’pose), otherwise the whole house would have gone up in smoke.

    According to the book “Mommy makes sure we are all save… Just like Democrats.”

    Riiiiiight.

    And you don’t even want to want I know of those d@mn wild turkey Whigs, Know-Nothing geese that pooped all over my deck after I stained it.

  26. *snort*

    Can’t help but think that if more Mommies really did “make sure everyone shares their toys” and “make sure children go to school” maybe there’d be less interest in pushing government to do it.

  27. I’ve always lamented the fact that my son’s first real awareness of politics and the Presidency was at age 6 when I had to explain to him what he heard on the radio about Bill and Monica.

    I suppose this really isn’t that bad, but I still think it stinks.

    As a frivolous aside… if your parents buy you this book, will you later be called a blue-diaper baby?

  28. I see echoes of “liberalism as religion”. Religion is taught to children so they may enjoy the benefits of faithful worship. Do liberal parents also wish their children to enjoy the benefits of faithful worship(of utopian ideology)?

  29. Loyal A: truthfully, don’t you find them both a bit strange?

    Although the one you mentioned (which I wasn’t previously familiar with) sounds as though it might at least be a bit tongue-in-cheek. I hope so. This one certainly wasn’t.

  30. Achates:

    Perhaps that was the original title of Something Under the Bed is Drooling, written by Bill Watterson. 🙂

  31. Well, if “Help Mommy, There Are Liberals Under my Bed!” can be sold seriously, then I don’t see why this should be so strange.

  32. Maybe we need to go back in time and tell the Founding Fathers they need an Ammendment telling people that it is a fundamental human right not to be brainwashed.

  33. Well, it’s essentially the message the Democrats are offering to the world these days:

    “Government is your Mommy. Mommy always knows best. Talk back to Mommy, and she will send you to your room. You’ll always be Mommy’s little squirrely, and you’ll always, ALWAYS need Mommy to protect you from EVIL people!”

  34. – my God, to think that I slay and eat squirrels on occasion. The range of your thought/diversity is astounding, Neo.

  35. and from the illustration of the book, democrats are also small little buck toothed rodents who eat powerlines, telephone wires and store nuts in my rain gutters.
