[dajoki]

shameless promotion of his book. "read my book"; "in the book"; "i say in my book". plus other hypocritical tidbits and lies http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/discussion/2005/07/20/DI2005072001515.html

1. fucking scumbag.

[dajoki]

4. do you think he'll show up...

or have one of his cronies get him out of it with some lame excuse?

[gratuitous]

2. Gee Ricky

Your book has some hard things to say about homosexuals (I'm guessing), but when you need someone on your staff to wield the hatchet, I see that you prefer the bitchier, the better. How do you square that with your conservative Catholic faith? Or do you have a special papal dispensation for raving hypocrisy, because that would answer a whole bunch of other questions I have for you as well.

[Ian David]

3. WTF is wrong with Santorum???

One more point: growing up in the 1950's and 1960's was far different from growing up in this decade. The culture, the neighborhoods, the values that were being fed through the popular culture and the educational establishments were far different from now. The world was different and far more nurturing to families. Can you imagine a show today entitled Father Knows Best? It's a a culture that undermines the family as opposed to a culture that supported the family.

Korean war



Vietnam War



Kent State



Busing Riots



Watts Riot


Charles Manson



Selma, Alabama



Rev. King didn't find the 1960s nurtuting for his kids



JFK Assassination



Cuban Missile Crisis



Polio was still a problem



Black church bombings


Murders of Civil Rights Activists


This looks like a family-friendly way to go to school



Robert Kennedy Assassination




The Zodiac Killer



The Duck and Cover Game was just one more way of nurturing good, family fun!



What was I talking about again?

Oh, yeah.

Rick Santorum says, "One more point: growing up in the 1950's and 1960's was far different from growing up in this decade. The culture, the neighborhoods, the values that were being fed through the popular culture and the educational establishments were far different from now.

5. Excellent Montage.....

That 20/20 hindsight is often through rose colored glasses
