Advocate of the Left

January 21st 2007 03:31
There she is, observing her daughter read a tabloid newspaper. She thinks to herself, "What is she getting out of that?" as she decides to but in.

"Darling, why are you reading the tabloids? You certainly weren't brought up in a family that agreed with them."

Her daughter answered, "I don't have to justify myself. Is there anything wrong with it?"

"Its just a load of dreamy, loathful gossip that spins little stories in order to make them seem like their printable."

"Are you saying they're not printable? Well why have they been printed? I can read what I like, without the judgement of those around me, no less."


She left her daughter to it, knowing that one day soon she will wake up to those around her and join in on their left-leaning political discussions. Her husband was once quite the conservative, and she managed to make him switch sides. It should be relatively easy to do the same with her rebelling daughter.

Ah, the rebellious right wing! Lie to us often, just give us the freedom to point out when you are doing so. Neo-conservatives of the world disperse! Heaven knows the intelligensia will go on.

Would have enjoyed this if it hadn't been a left vs right thing. But It kind of attacked me, and hence left a bad taste.

Guess I kind of wasn't your target audience huh?

Well written, regardless.

Cheers, Davo. Can't stop the jism.

Hi Brenton. I tried to keep this unbiased. Neo-conservatives generally disperse and regroup their school of thought as the times change - something which is inevitable. The intelligensia simply keep banging on.

Hence my possibly unbiased view.

I think I'd have to say, either side has more than a fair share of idiots.

I've had a look around your site btw, you're good
