Bully Pulpit

The term "bully pulpit" stems from President Theodore Roosevelt's reference to the White House as a "bully pulpit," meaning a terrific platform from which to persuasively advocate an agenda. Roosevelt often used the word "bully" as an adjective meaning superb/wonderful. The Bully Pulpit features news, reasoned discourse, opinion and some humor.

Communist deniers

Over the course of the last week, I have been engaging in a debate of the theory of evolution by natural selection with a biology teacher and evolutionary enthusiast named Scott Hatfield. It has been an interesting and civil debate and you can read two of my primary posts here and here, while two of Mr. Hatfield's more recent ones are here and here.

But one disturbing tangent that has come out of these debates is the shocking tendency of some evolutionists to attempt to disavow the significant historical impact that Darwin's dangerous idea had on some of history's most dangerous men. While the National Socialist enthusiasm for evolution-inspired eugenics is too well known to be credibly disputed, the direct link between Darwin and communism is less well understood. Devious evolutionists have been quick to exploit this general ignorance in an attempt to distance Darwin and his theory of evolution from the crimes of the communist killers of the previous century.

In doing so, they are following the dishonest lead of some of the more shameless atheists, such as Sam Harris, whose lies on behalf of his atheism stand in more blatant contrast to the historical record than those of any Holocaust denier. Like Lady MacBeth, these atheists and evolutionists frantically attempt to scrub and scrub away at the historical record, desperate to wash the blood of tens of millions off the hands of their stained ideologies. But it will not work, not so long as man remains literate.


Vox Day

On a tangential note, I happened to catch part of that pinhead, Bill Maher's show the other night. He was belaboring Mike Huckabee on whether or not he "believes in" evolution. I'm sure Vox would have a field day with that one. I thought Huckabee, who I wouldn't vote for on a bet, gave a good answer, though. Maher didn't get it, of course, and his guest, Tim Robbins, yet another smug double-digit IQ type, was repeatedly shown with an apparently knowing smirk on his face several times. Robbins was probably thinking, "Gosh! I hope they don't ask me any questions."

I'm not sure who told Robbins or Maher that they were even remotely relevant, but whoever it was needs to be tried, found guilty, and summarily executed.

Why don't you like Mike Huckabee?

First and foremost, because he is a GOP party hack. I think he has the potential to be another Bush. He mouths the things that the so-called "Religious Right" wants to hear, but if you look at his core positions, he is more like a Democrat than he is a Republican. He is definitely a firm believer in big government.
