It’s funny that so many of the rhetorical habits of the right-wing have historical roots.

One GOP legislator once said–in the context of the Nixon impeachment hearings–’my mind’s made up; don’t confuse me with the facts.’

In my second piece I called somebody “the late” so-and-so, when that person was very much alive.

Thus continuing the proud tradition started by Mark Twain who convinced quite a large number of people that one of his rivals was dead. (Note to self: maybe I should look and make sure it was Twain? Naaah… someone will point out if I’m wrong…)

Don’t you guys understand the premise behind Slate? It’s “slate,” as in, a rock tablet, as in, what we write cannot be changed, addended, corrected, or erased. They chisel their web columns into HTML for all eternity, exposed to the elements. Unless the elements erode those cyber tablets into fine dust, the writings stand.

You people are so last century, so out of touch with the Christian American mainstream. Slate gives the people what they want, pure, oblivious, unadulterated channeling of the mysterious and unprovable, written in stone, for the cyber age.
