Make Rules, Not Love or War - aka Why the Left Lost - Part MMMCMLVII.
As we noted in an earlier post, Greens share more with the Puritans of the 1600's than just religious zeal. They share...well, Puritanism itself! Carrie Nation was no less a killjoy than the tree-frenching left.
First it was cars powered with anything larger than a lawn-mower motor. Then nuclear power (with every other type of practical, inexpensive power in close second on the hit list). Then cigars, cigarettes, meat, veggies and fruits that weren't blessed with the seal of the organic komissar, alcohol, CDs, anything that comes in a package...and on...and on...
But we figured - "At least there's one human activity that these bastards can't crush beneath the birkenstocks of their relentless, mindless, soul-destroying Political Correctness". You'd think that there might be one primal, inseparably human activity, one simple, pleasurable, healthy, form of physical/spiritual/emotional joyous release, would escape the grasping clutches of the Greens, the Destroyers of Joy, the Regulators of Life's Simple Innocuous Pleasures.
You'd think so.
