Bio
I've done everything from recycling to teaching in a pre-school. Most recently I was for 10 years an acting and theater teacher as well as a pallet builder. I read a lot and I'm an old man who remembers the distant past with somewhat more clarity than this morning's breakfast. I've been blogging for a decade and I don't do "light". If you're looking for recipes, self-promoting displays of items made for sale, titillating stories about how I was a pimp for an afternoon, or the beauties of toasters, you've come to the wrong place.

RW Blogger Admits He Hearts Witchcraft

Rate: 2 Flag

In the world of Right-wingnuttery, it is considered important to espouse only fundamentalist religious views: gays are evil, abortion is evil, Obama is the Antichrist, and Halloween is a symphony for the devil in which demons hide in candy and take over kid’s souls, turning them into Satan’s Little Helpers, ie witches.

But there’s Christine O’Donnell bragging about once being a witch and having picnics on a satanic altar, so here comes Glenn Reynolds, A-1, top o’ the heap RW blogger, bigger than Powerline and Mad Michelle combined, to tell us – and all his soon-to-be-ex-fundamentalist friends, I suspect – that witchcraft ain’t so bad. I mean, whatever evil lurks in those covens, being “a witch is better than [being] a Marxist. Which is undoubtedly true.” (Via Ray Edroso)

Apparently, backing up an embarrassingly incompetent and hopelessly insane TeaBag whacko is more important in the the RW World than any sort of religious belief one might hold. One wonders what the Values crowd is going to think about Glenn’s wholesale embrace of black magic.

As if this wasn't already bizarre enough for SNL.
This is something the left should jump on. Witchcraft/Satanism is just like Objectivism, in terms of its hyper emphasis on hedonism and selfish narcisism (sic). Liberalism is much more like Christianity. We should push this issue. It is a boon and has been thrown into our laps.

Needless to say, the Left will drop the ball on this one, as well. I know many staunch libertarians that were into this crap when they were in college.
How come all these guys are named Glenn? Maybe they're aliens who didn't realize humans are supposed to have different names. With the Beckster so popular with the Wacko Right, I'm betting twenty years from now, all male wngnut first-time voters will be named Glenn. Hell, even the females will be named Glenn, too. After all, that's become a unisex name thanks to Glenn Close. On second thot, that wouldn't do, wouldn't be biblically correct.
