I worry about the future of our great nation. A lot of my fellow citizens are just too plain stupid to participate in our democratic process. They think Fox News lies. They mistake Sarah Palin's brilliance for ignorance. And they call HBO's "Big Love" reality series, "fiction."
Thank God for the true Americans who see things how they really are. I found a few of them commenting at Big Love's Margene Hendrickson's blog:
Margene,
I think deep down you realize that Carolanne has something more going on than just a crush. Thinking back to how young you were & the emotions you felt when you first fell in love w/ Bill. You are probably the best person to understand what she is going through. And I love how selfless you are, not that you don't need or want for yourself, but how giving you are of your love & joy for others. You are a true inspiration to me.

I think Nikki called the police about the underage marriage you had with Bill. Nikki is way jealous! Watch your back honey around Nikkie and Barb. Barb is off her rocker.

Margene, i dont think you should have did that sealing without Barb!!! What was up with that? I dont think Nicki is done with her little tricks! You watch out and you be careful

Margene, You and Nikki and Bill having a sealing without Barb? What is up with that? Barb is a HUGE part of your family and without her blessing there wouldn't have been a wedding. I am so devastated for Barb, even though she is dealing with her own issues. Seeing the look in her eyes as she passed the bedroom where the sealing was going on was the worst, she was really hurt, deep. There is something that Nikki is pulling and you know that so be careful around her and try to talk to Bill. What he did was WRONG and he needs to fix it with Barb. He needs to reseal his vows to her as well.

Chin up, Margene. You're a strong woman, and your internet supporters will back you no matter what you choose! I can't wait to try your recipe.

Margie,
I see your business gogi juice is expanding! What a great way to establish yourself in the community. So is gogi juice part of Amway? There are lots more opportunities? How do you handle Niki taking over as first wife? Are you worried that she will take over a new way of doing business? Or do you see that Bill and Barb are trying to provide her false sense of security?

Margie,
I think you've done a great job with the rally and continuing your development in the faith. You're very patient with your sister wives even when they are wrong. I applaud you for that. I always have. Keep fighting the good fight.

Margene, I love your positive attitude and how you've really become Bill's mainstay right now, but I'm worried that you and your sister wives are heading out on such widely divergent paths. What could bring you together?

Somewhere Else: Another LDS Seminary favorite, "Like Unto Us" in a righteously single ear.
General Sir!
ReplyDeleteI agree with your assessment wholeheartedly. However, it is sometimes difficult for us to differentiate between what is and isn't real.
Case in point, I refer to the latest Bcogby* poll done. 78% of respondents believed that Charlie Sheen was in fact a real person. 12% didn't, and 10% didn't know.
Of course, this clearly fabricated caricature of a manic, narcissist, drug addled actor isn't real. It isn't possible, but through the power of TV, a majority have been fooled.
* Bcogby polls are scientific and attempt to poll a wide cross-section of me.
Religion is better when you pretend, and TV is better when you think a given, scripted program is real. Who doesn't want to share a carrot with Mr. Ed? Or a crack pipe for Charlie Sheen? Hell, they're already in our living rooms--why not tie them up and put 'em in the Compound? I got dibs on Wilbur!
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw that "3 girls for every boy" picture at the top of the post, I thought "That's a vision of heaven!" Then I realized that those not-men could probably talk, and that took the edge off the fantasy. Three wimmens yakking at you when the grunting stops -- feh!
ReplyDeleteIt's the same reason why what every patriotikkkonservative man wants to do with Vice President of MILFyness Palin would never work -- can you imagine listening to her for the rest of the night after those three minutes of exxxstasy? OK, 90 seconds. She would just be TOO exciting.
Meanwhile, you don't mean to tell me that some schools showed that ghey agenda propaganda film Tom Trails in class! Those prolonged gazes between him and the teacher (who loked like he had some Nephite blood in him, if you ask me) and the scene in the boy's gym shower... You could cut the homosexualistension with a knife!
