Sorry I haven’t posted in a while. It’s finals time again, and much of my time is consumed with studying for "examination hell." However, I do have time to respond to an editorial that appeared last week in response to my editorial on the War on Non-Christians. Enjoy!

It appears that my post about the American Legion making terrorist threats against anti-war protesters struck a nerve. A recent check of my Site Meter statistics reveals that someone in the Legion (of Doom to Libruls) came across my humble little corner of cyberspace while googling the string "poll american legion."

Whoever uses the computer(s) in the subnet registered for the Indianapolis, Indiana branch of the Legion must have a lot of time on their hands to check on un-American activities like dissent. Either that or they’re planning some not so nice things involving the person of anyone who thinks that The Most Holy George W. Christ doesn’t walk on water.

If I wind up sleeping with the fishes at some point in the near future, you’ll know why. In the meantime, I intend to keep fighting the good fight, and not let the bastards get me down.

UPDATE: 11/30/05 9:23 PM
I decided to remove the partial IP address of the site because it opens the Legion up to some not-so-nice things from hackers. After having criticized a conservative for doing something similar, I felt it would not be appropriate for me to stoop to that level - not to mention hypocritical, even in an effort to deter any retaliatory action on the part of the American Legion. Because unlike the Bush administration, I believe that the ends don’t always justify the means.

I managed to get one more editorial published before the end of the semester. My last one should’ve been published, but the opinions editor for the paper I write for came up with this new rule that bloggers can’t post anything they want submitted for publication to their blogs until after publication. Personally, I think it’s a BS rule, but I don’t make editorial decisions, and I have taken more than enough space even mentioning the subject. So without further ado, here is my editorial in its origninal glory (the hacked-to-pieces version is available here - entitled, appropriately enough, "’Tis the season to vilify"):

I am leaving in a few minutes to go visit family in San Angelo for Thanksgiving. I’ll be back on Saturday. Until then, Happy Turkey Day, everyone!

We have a couple of things to update you on in the right wing’s jihad against all things non-Christian tonight, so let’s get started.

Ordinarily, I don’t make posts like this when I update my blog template, such as to add links, or when I upgraded(?) my comments to HaloScan. But I wanted to test a change to the stylesheet portion of the template. Used to be, when I wanted to make a particular stylistic change, such as the Sidebar feature, mark through some text to make it look ridiculous suggest improvements, or to perform the textual equivalent of shouting at the top of my lungs, I’d have to go back to a prior post that had one of those features and copy/paste the style information into the new post. By adding to the stylesheet the definitions of the styles for these features, I hope to eliminate that necessity, making my work that much easier.

Here’s a couple of gems for you on the evolution/creationism debate:

Pat Robertson: Open mouth, insert foot

Pat Robertson must really like the taste of his own foot. It’s the only possible reason I can imagine why he keeps putting it in his mouth.
