IT'S BEEN SAID for 2003
Every now and then I come across a quotation that is so preposterous, amazing, interesting, or bizarre, I want to tell others about it. This is the page I'll use to do so. These quotes don't qualify for my "Quotes" page -- they're not sufficiently inspiring -- but they certainly deserve preserving.

From "Birds and Babies," a "Letter to the Editor," The Washington Times National Weekly Edition, December 1-7, 2003, page 39. Address: 3600 New York Avenue, NE, Washington, DC 20002. E-mail. Website.
"While recently listening to a radio program about how the United States government is protecting the eggs of sea turtles and some rare marine birds, a question occurred to me: Doesn't the property owner have the right to destroy any eggs he finds on his property, if he wants to? After all, those eggs really aren't turtles or birds or anything else except unviable tissue masses. Heck, the property owner could even cut off the little critters' heads as they hatch, provided they weren't all the way out of the shell. It's all a matter of choice."
-- Paul R. Broshear, Mary Esther, Florida.

"Giving non-marital relationships the same status as marriage does not expand the definition of marriage; it destroys it. For example, if you declare that, because it has similar properties, grape juice must be labeled identically to wine, you have destroyed the definitions of both 'grape juice' and 'wine.' The term 'marriage' refers specifically to the joining of two people of the opposite sex. When that is lost, the term 'marriage' becomes meaningless."
-- Robert H. Knight.

"The framers of the Constitution were white guys, old and undeniably wise, and they sure, Lord, invented the country. Most of those boy-soldiers who died opposing slavery at Lincoln's invitation in the 1860s were white, too. Why should I be ashamed of them? Why is 'Hispanic pride' or 'black pride' a good thing, while 'white pride' sounds evil, conjuring images of shaved heads or white hoods?"

"The message from the cultural warlords is everywhere, delivered with the arrogant swagger of absolute confidence. Summarized, it is this: Heaven help the God-fearing, law-abiding, Caucasian, middle class, Protestant (or even worse evangelical) Christian, the midwestern or southern (or even worse rural) hunter, apparently straight or admitted heterosexual gun-owning (or even worse NRA-card-carying) average working stiff, or even worse still male working stiff, because not only do you not count, you're a downright obstacle to social progress."

"You get your life from God and nature. You get your clothes or your books by paying for them with the money that you make from your own work or that someone voluntarily gives you. It is only after you have acquired your property in some legitimate way that your right to own property comes into play. The Founders would not have said, as some people now think, that you have a 'right' to decent housing, health care, recreation, or any other particular thing you want or need before you have worked to get them. That would mean that someone else has a duty to work to get clothes and books for you. This would be something like making that person your servant. It would be a violation of that person's right to liberty.
-- Thomas G. West and Douglas A. Jeffrey.

From "The Poison Fruit of Free Trade," by Patrick Buchanan, Media Bypass, December 2002, page 27. American Alternative Media LP, 4900 Tippecanoe Drive, Evansville, Indiana 47715-3234. E-mail. Website.
"[E]x-GM executive Gus Stelzer . . . estimates that 50 percent of the sticker price of a new Cadillac goes for taxes. . . . When you buy an American-made car, you are contributing to Social Security and Medicare, and to our national defense and national parks, and helping pay for the local police, public roads and public schools. This is why exports are better than imports, why trade surpluses are better than trade deficits. When foreigners buy U.S.-made goods, half the price they pay underwrites the cost of our government. But when we buy foreign goods, we contribute taxes to the regimes in the countries where those goods are produced. . . Now that tariffs have been virtually abolished, foreign-made goods carry almost no U.S. tax. But goods 'Made in the USA' carry U.S. taxes of 50 percent of their price. Free trade thus makes a mockery of equal protection of the laws. Free trade, writes Stelzer, 'is the only competitive activity in which the rules are not the same for every competitor. . .'"

From "Interdependent Transformations," by Lynn M. Stuter (e-mail), as posted at the Icehouse Website.
"Nothing that is happening in this transformation of our culture, and, therefore, our form of government, stands alone ... is in isolation. It is ALL integrated, interconnected, interdependent such that one part cannot function without all the others. Depicted as a drawing, it looks like a massive spider web. Education is not separate from gun control, growth management, land use planning, environmentalism, heritage rivers, land grabs, property rights, salmon recovery, and the plethora of other "issues" people across this nation are fighting their government over. All of these issues are serving the same purpose: to TRANSFORM our nation from a republican form of government where the government serves the people, to a socialist/communist form of government where the people serve the government, aligning them with all other nations of the world to blur borders in a global economy that is, in actuality, a one-world government. Once you understand systems theory, the whole of this comes together and people understand where this is headed. People who don't understand systems theory tend to cut off the morning glory blooms to watch them grow right back."

"Of course, if there is a constitutional right to have homosexual sex, how can one deny there is a constitutional right to group sex? How can one deny there is a constitutional right to consensual incest? How can one deny there is a right to have sex with animals? How can one deny there is a constitutional right to polygamy? You can't. There is no difference. And that's why there is no constitutional right to homosexual sex -- or any other kind of sex for that matter. The word sex doesn't appear in the Constitution. It is a subject not addressed -- which is, under the Constitution, precisely why it is a matter left to the various states. . . . Homosexual marriage? Homosexual adoption? How can the court say no? It's just a matter of time before all state laws prohibiting them are struck down using the same logic -- or illogic -- used by the current [Supreme] Court."

"Socialism is like one of those horrible viruses. You no sooner discover a remedy for one version, when it spontaneously evolves into another . . . . Nowadays socialism is more often dressed up as environmentalism, feminism, or international concern for human rights. . . . New slogans: old errors."

"Overcoming adversity is one of our great desires and one of our great sources of pride. But it is something that our anointed deep thinkers strive to eliminate from our lives, through everything from grade inflation to the welfare state.

"The sexual revolution, inspired by [Alfred] Kinsey, was ready-made for the radical left. By converting young people to the mantra of sexual 'liberation,' Kinsey's work seduced a generation into believing that their happiness was radically at odds with the maintenance of traditional social authority. . . . As a direct consequence of the sexual revolution, the past 30 years have witnessed an exploding rate of illegitimacy, divorce, sexual perversity, and rape. If our society is weaker today than every before, it's in no small measure due to Kinsey's efforts."

"Because liberals so much enjoy running the lives of others (via government, the communications media, academia, organized charities, or whatever other big engine rolls down the track of life), they salivate to lay a guilt-trip on anyone reluctant to join them in their unnatural state. Thus, successful people are exhorted by liberals 'to give something back to the community,' which means anyone who is productive must underwrite the unproductive. By subsidizing the unproductive, of course, we will get more unproductiveness. Liberals don't accept this truth or its flip side, that by taxing the unproductive we actually will get less unproductiveness (a regressive federal income tax, anyone?)."

Like the battle against communism, this is a battle in which we find ourselves arrayed against the news and entertainment media and academia, where chic ideas have greater appeal than hard facts. The thousands who demonstrate against the War on terrorism or Iraq . . . are badly misinformed. They are driven by slogans, not reason and information."
-- Reed Irvine, Chairman, Accuracy In Media.
