BAH, HUMBUG: For the eternal pessimist, the real conservative.
Me likey:
"The next version of MicroSoft Windows will be even buggier and more counterintuitive than the last. That one you know perfectly well, of course ? I don't know why I bothered to include it. Further bad news on this front: e-mail will be rendered completely useless by spam, all that wonderful free information on the web will gradually be shut off into fee-paying sites, and NRO will start posting my photograph again."
and
"This is stuff you don't want to hear, but that, if you are a true conservative, you cannot dispute. Remember the slogan of the 1964 Goldwater campaign**: 'In your heart you know he's right.'
**While trying not to remember the counter-slogan put out by the LBJ campaign: 'In your guts you know he's nuts.'"
"Thou shalt not extinguish thine anger, but shall master it,
that thy conscience may not be blunted by adjustment
to wrong causes."
