His favorite Juliet was obviously Olivia Hussey.

quote:

She was not legally able to attend the London premiere of Romeo and Juliet (1968) because she was under 18 and the film contained a nude scene -- even though she was the one who was nude.

I always love how little thought conservatives put into this.

"So you're telling me that people who pursue further education are quite largely more liberal. Hmmm.... this MUST mean that there is a huge university conspiracy that brainwashes all of these college-educated young people into becoming more liberal. This is much more likely than increased education and exposure to different ideas/cultures leading to less conservative views. Now excuse me while I go watch almost nothing but Fox News and complain about paying taxes for schools."

I think I've heard this opinion from almost every old conservative I know who sits 2 feet away from Fox on their TV.

You Are Not Forgotten

When I decided to paint this picture, I wondered if this was taking it too far. But, sometimes you have to speak forcefully, like the brushstrokes of my painting.

Many Americans have felt forgotten by the establishment in Washington. I�m talking about the people who are more interested in themselves, and their political careers.

How many veterans have been neglected? How many of our police officers have been marginalized? How many families are suffering because of poor healthcare, limited opportunities, and government intrusion?

Last year we elected President Trump. He expressed by his words and demeanor what Americans wanted - a man who was not going to bow down to Washington or other countries. A man that would not forget the �forgotten men and women� of this country who elected him.

I want a president that will crush the enemies of liberty, justice, and American prosperity.

They may have the power to bruise his heal, but he will have the power to crush their head!

'Christ and Caesar' by Fred Clark posted:

In Tim LaHaye�s theology, God is not revealed in the lowly birth, life, and crucifixion of Jesus. That whole thing was a kind of mistake. That�s why the Second Coming is so important for LaHaye � it�s how God will correct the failure of Jesus� first coming. And how will that happen? Jesus will come back just exactly like Caesar, but bigger and stronger and meaner and deadlier. He�ll kill all the bad people and then judge them from a big imperial throne. And then he�ll kill all the bad people again, perpetually, forever. (The Turbo Jesus of Left Behind is, as we�ve often noted, a monster.)

Those books had millions of readers and devotees, but millions of other American Christians who�ve never read them still have an idea of Jesus and of divine power that looks a lot more like LaHaye�s Turbo Jesus than like Hart�s �crucified liberator from Galilee.�

He's making them look stupid via some really lame malapropisms, because that's incisive commentary

He could actually have had a stroke, though. You'd have to ask his editor
