Common Sense

And Gina “Teabagging” Parker wishes you a Merry Christmas. Sometimes the jokes just write themselves.

Parker’s desk seems cluttered of late and her notes are plenty. She writes about ‘grinches’

As we near that most joyful time of year, it never seems to fail that certain militant individuals who are staunchly anti-Christmas (better known as “Grinches”) seem to come crawling out of the proverbial woodwork. This year, the City of Chicago has banned a yearly public square Christmas festival for, of all things, talking about Christmas!…

Despite the Christophobes’ best efforts, however, the tide is slowly turning in favor of those who love Christmas. Wal-Mart in early November announced that they would be launching a more “aggressive” Christmas campaign this year, with their TV and print ads proudly displaying “Christmas” trees and ornaments, as opposed to “Holiday” ones, as well as the “Merry Christmas” slogan. Target has followed suit by making a conscious effort to re-integrate the word “Christmas” into its holiday ad blitz.

Number one, don’t call us grinches because we hate that damn movie! Number two, if it was really that joyful, you would think the suicide rate would go down instead of up. And three, if the Pilgrims refused to celebrate Christmas because of its pagan connotations, I don’t see what’s wrong with me not celebrating it. I’ve got a better reason anyway, I want to be able to go out and eat and shop do all the things I would do on any other day without some jackass trying to cheer me up.

I’m crippled and depressed, I don’t douches like Gina Parker to make my day any worse.

Showing her ignorance of basic American civics, she writes:

In a recent interview with CNN, former Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O’Connor expressed her displeasure with America’s current fixation on criticizing “activist judges” for writing the laws instead of interpreting them. She feels that this “mantra” is one that is causing the other branches of government to create legislation to limit the powers of the judiciary, the Supreme Court notwithstanding. I say, if the shoe fits…wear it!

It is interesting that those whom our founders intended to be fair, balanced, and yet weaker than the other branches of government, cast their opponents – the American people – as a McCarthy-esque bunch of witch-hunters out to burn members of the judiciary with which we disagree. Evidently, those little dictators in their black robes just do not get it.

I’m pretty sure that our representative system has three coequal braches of government. I suppose you could make an argument that one branch or another is designed to be stronger than the others. But I don’t think fair and balanced are the descriptors I would use for the federal judiciary, either. We’re not talking about Fox News, we’re talking about the body of governent that was bestowed “judicial review.”

Alexis de Tocqueville noted that the American judiciary was “imposing” because of the reach it had into the affairs of the other two branches. It was designed and implemented in a way that would allow it to invalidate legislative or executive actions. If those actions conflict with the Constitution. The Supreme Court is the final arbiter.

And if Gina Parker is going to call Supreme Court judges dictators, then I’m going to start referring to her as Gina “Teabagging fascist bitch” Parker. God, Parker just pisses me off so much that I can’t even think straight.
