Yep, pretty much my exact line of thinking. Agree, sort of agree, hey wait a minute - FUCK YOU RAH!

OK one more and then I have to go to bed, this is from "Who Are The Heirs of Patrick Henry?" about ways to ensure a responsible electorate:

I don't insist on any particular method of achieving a responsible electorate; I just think that we need to tighten up the present warm-body criterion before it destroys us. How about this? For almost a century and a half women were not allowed to vote. For the past sixty years they have voted... but we have not seen the enormous improvement in government that the suffragettes promised us.

Perhaps we did not go far enough. Perhaps men are still corrupting government... so let's try the next century and a half with males disenfranchised. (Fair is fair. My mother was past forty before she was permitted to vote.) But let's not stop there; at present men outnumber women in elective offices, on the bench, and in the legal profession by a proportion that is scandalous. Make males ineligible to hold elective office, or to serve in the judiciary, elective or appointed, and also reserve the profession of law for women.

Impossible? That was exactly the situation the year I was born, but male instead of female, even in the few states that had female suffrage before the XIXth Amendment, with so few exceptions as to be unnoticed. As for rooting male lawyers out of their cozy niches, this would give us a pool of unskilled manual laborers -- and laborers are very hard to hire these days; I've been trying to hire one at any wages he wants for the past three months, with no success.

The really good ones could stay on as law clerks to our present female lawyers, who will be overworked for a while. But not for long. Can you imagine female judges (with no male judges to reverse them) permitting attorneys to take six weeks to pick a jury? Or allowing a trial to ramble along for months? Women are more practical than men. Biology forces it on them. Speaking of that, let's go whole hog. Until a female bears a child her socio-economic function is male no matter how orthodox her sexual preference. But a woman who is mother to a child knows she has a stake in the future. So let's limit the franchise and eligibility for office and the practice of law to mothers. The phasing over should be made gentle. Let males serve out their terms but not succeed themselves. Male lawyers might be given as long as four years to retire or find other jobs while not admitting any more males into law schools. I don't have a candidate for President but the events of the last fifty years prove that anybody can sit in the Oval Office; it's just that some are more impressive in appearance than others.

Brethren and Sistern, have you ever stopped to think that there has not been one rational decision out of the Oval Office for fifty years? An all-female government could not possibly be worse than what we have been enduring. Let's try it!

Speaking of that, let's go whole hog. Until a female bears a child her socio-economic function is male no matter how orthodox her sexual preference. But a woman who is mother to a child knows she has a stake in the future. So let's limit the franchise and eligibility for office and the practice of law to mothers.

Allyson's head may not explode, but that popping sound?

My head. All over the ceiling.

And my work here is done.

Make it stop.

I'M GOING TO GO TELL TIM YOU'RE BOTHERING ME AND HE'LL KILL YOU ALL

Yeah, but only by proxy on his new show. And he'll make the viewers love us first.

Eh. To be fair, before he said that non-mothers didn't deserve the vote, he said men didn't deserve it. Yet I don't find myself at all offended. I believe he was being farcical.

I'M GOING TO GO TELL TIM YOU'RE BOTHERING ME AND HE'LL KILL YOU ALL

While I'm sure Tim adores Allyson, I think it's more likely he'd throw some Ayn Rand Objectivism into the mix and sit back and laugh while we entertain him with our 'splodey heads.

Plus, I think killing people is a sign of love in the Minearverse.

(Stipulated: there are individuals, both sexes, who prefer to live alone. This is racially self-correcting.)

Sorry, but why is this is causing explosions? "Self-correcting" means, if this behavior spreads in each generation, we wind up extinct. Biologically, that's a problem. But since those who prefer to be alone are a lot less likely to have children, the problem fixes itself.

It's a side note, not a moral judgment.
