Extra! Extra! Neoconservatism Discovered To Be Screaming Yellow Bonkers!
by tristero
Why are the so-called “conservative intellectuals” in the United States so hellbent on reinventing a square wheel? Anyone with half a brain and half an education knows better than to bother. But there they are, with their T-squares marking off 89 degree angles – can’t even get that straight – and sawing away for years on one patently idiotic idea or another before finally announcing what liberals have known all along: It was a patently idiotic idea.
For the latest, here’s Francis Fukuyama’s epiphany. Turns out neoconservatism is… a really bad idea. Who knew? Well I knew, and I didn’t need tens of thousands of deaths in Iraq to know it. And so I think a prayer is called for:
Dear God,
Please deliver us from the hideous locust plague of conservative pseudo-intellectuals. Sinners we may be in Thine eyes, and unworthy of thy Divine Love, but Jesus Kee-rist! Cut us some friggin’ slack, already! Fire and brimstone, eternal damnation, I ain’t gonna argue with you. But, seriously, God, we really don’t deserve any more Fukuyamas, y’know? So ease up.
Please.
Love,
Tristero
