Guns. You think you have enough until the zombies come. Sic semper tyrannis.
"When you coast through life getting preferential treatment, and then suddenly find yourself playing hard ball with the big boys and girls, and not getting a participation trophy every time you walk out the front door, then you are probably prone to believe that some sinister force is conspiring against you.Lovely, that.
We need a leader who lives in reality, not in a fog of rationalizations."
"When you’re in the Oval Office and you turn on the TV and see Greece going up in flames, the inevitable result of a country living beyond its means, and you decide that’s going to continue to be your economic role model, the best that can be said about you is that you’re stubborn, ignorant and irresponsible.
When you decide that the best way to go about getting re-elected is by pitting Americans against each other on the basis of race, class and religion, cynically turning this noble nation into a banana republic, you go from being just another Chicago hack with a leftwing agenda to joining the putrid ranks of demagogues and dictators."

"Yes, it is far-fetched, but it is also distressingly possible. The sad fact in America today is that we have a president so disdainful of our foundational law and freedoms as to make the far-fetched seem queasily reasonable.
The timing of this executive order is jarring, even if the specific changes to the order are not. The power it conveys is staggering and cannot be safely entrusted to a single branch of government, much less to a single man. The Congress needs to reassert control over the exercise and implementation of the Defense Production Act before it can be utilized by a power-hungry cabal of leftists eager to fundamentally transform America. There is a door no one has locked, and our home is not secure. Close the door, lock it, and throw away that key."
"Obama is the malignant spawn of the liberial socialism that gave the world 200 million deaths in the 20th century. There are three words that Obama cannot and will not utter: "I am responsible." As a malignant narcissist, his whole life has been nothing but a carefully contrived, orchestrated sham. Unfortunately, he is not the cause, but the fruit of the disease that has rotted this country from within. We must be sure to remove him from office in November, but more importantly, our country must open an internal dialogue with itself to address the fundamental causes that produced such a tyrant. Our society has millions of creatures like Obama, sapping our country's resouces, clogging our jails and prisions.
As a clinician, I see and care for people like him every day. Obama is not unique. He is remarkable only by position. Eventually, his handlers will tire of him and break and discard him when he is no longer useful. Unless we strip away the masks of deception and deceit that propelled him into office, we will have more people like him to damage and ruin this country. We must root out and destroy the cause of this disease, not just treat the symptoms."
Alas, it's not a question of the administration being tragically "tone deaf," as one American Jesuit claimed, to specifically Catholic concerns. Nor is the bedrock of President Obama's position, in the end, a commitment to "women's health." Outside the ghoulish world of Planned Parenthood, pregnancy does not qualify as a disease. A fertile womb is no threat to human life.
No, this is all about the absolutization of choice for the sake of choice. It's also about creating a society in which any discussion of the actual ends we choose is considered unacceptable in public debates about law and morality.
