Opinion:

All I can say is...

    By Jack Grant

...SpongeBob Squarepants is a HELL of a lot less irritating than Barney, believe me, I had to watch enough of SpongeBob during my Christmas visit to the US to know...

...and in some respects he is a classic tragic figure, but I won't go into that here.

I'll simply point out that some people need to buy a ticket on the clue train to reality. The left-wing has moonbats, but the right-wing somehow manages to match their idiocy to fully earn the name nut-jobs.

Wow. Who would have thought that Sponge Bob would be the center of controversy. I may just have to buy the video when the movie comes out just to thumb my nose at the crackpots. (We were going to own it anyway...)

...still can't believe it's Dobson. Sure, he's a right-winger and a conservative, but a well-respected one. I wouldn't have put him in the nutjob camp. I expected the typical smarmy and attention-seeking TV evangelist on this one.

We don't handle randomness well.

Trying to hold the center in not so quiet desperation while the left and the right do their damnest to tear everything apart.

What Others Say
An American transplanted to France for the moment, Jack is sometimes conservative, sometimes liberal, and almost always right.
   -Pennywit

Jack has an impressive knowledge of history, politics, and Keanu Reeves. When it comes to pirates, Jack is waaay sexier than that pansy Dread Pirate Roberts. Oh, wait--I'm thinking of Jack Sparrow...
   -Jennifer (Jennifer's History and Stuff)

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the center cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
   -William Butler Yeats, January 1919


Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Wahabism Delenda Est
Wahabism must be destroyed.
