		<description>Well, when you run out of topics to write on, feel free to take a whack at that one. I&#039;d love to read that. I&#039;ve wondered exactly what my disposition toward him ought to be, as I&#039;ve found myself pondering his hero status in my own mind. Whether or not hero is the proper category (and I kind of like it now that you mention it), I&#039;ve thought about things from a number of different angles and just can&#039;t seem to shake a lingering affection--certainly contrary to all I was taught to think about him. Anyway, when I first read your phrase from 67, I thought of him and wondered if he appropriately fit the bill.</description>

		<description>Well Booth is one of my heroes. But to answer the question more objectively and philosophically would require more stage-setting.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m off topic but regarding part of your comment in 67, was J.W. Boothe a &quot;lyncher of the attackers of our people,&quot; or did he act unlawfully?</description>

		<description>Think Victorian London. Chesterton pointed out that the upper-class woman poking her head into the smoking room to urge the men to come up and join the ladies for a cup of tea is really of a kind with the lower-class woman banging on the door of the pub to demand that her man come home.

We can appreciate the eternal feminine in both its upper- and lower-class version, even its posturing -- even while perhaps sneaking an occasional slug of her own private stash of odorless vodka.

Of course we should honor women as our superior -- in the areas of woman&#039;s calling and strength -- while recognizing man&#039;s superiority in his area. But why would fighting fires and modern &quot;business&quot; pop into Andrew&#039;s mind? What about inventing the washing- and laundry-machine? Splitting the nucleus of the atom after developing the equations thereof? Serving on juries and leading armies? Writing sound books of theology? Lynching the attackers of our people?

Fundamentally, it is dishonesty. It is a combination of flattery and self-deprecation that manipulates and plays into a desired audience, and he is willing to degrade himself to this point even if it leads him to the conclusion of suffragism and Palin.

Wake up, Candy! We can use your talent in our cause also -- but only after you become undeceived.</description>

		<description>In a panegyric to Mrs. Sarahcuda Palin, &quot;Evangelical postmodernist,&quot; &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; href=&quot;http://www.andrewsandlin.net/?p=708&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Andrew Sandlin&lt;/a&gt;, offers a few deeeep thoughts about women.

&quot;While men tend to be physically stronger and possess tendencies of daring, risky leadership that are useful in very public, muscular occupations like firefighting, law enforcement, and business (William James: the man’s “world is a theater for heroism”), women are inclined to superior judgment of human character, to better intuitions in making decisions, and certainly to overwhelming capabilities in familial duties. Women are gifted where it really counts: in family, in friendships, and in most decision-making.&quot;

&quot;The conservative feminists were convinced that women should get the vote not because they were equal to men (what a silly and degrading idea!) but because women, being superior to men on most family matters, should have a big voice in political choices. This explains women’s leadership in the Temperance Movement (to outlaw the production and distribution of alcohol). That movement may have been misguided (as I believe), but its guiding spirit was not: women knew better than anyone the scourge that alcohol abuse poses to the family.&quot;</description>

		<description>Jason -- continuing from my answer, especially in #53... Of course, the fallacy of my counter-example is, that Israel would never tolerate a goy prime minister.

Only goyim are supposed to not only suffer a kike ruler, but seethe in indignation if one should challenge its propriety.

If you are the Jason I have heard about, you are a good man, but think! We need you to get past your propagandizement and join us. Your punishment should be exile from New Whiteshire, until something clicks in your thinking.</description>
