2004 Soap Box Archives Fallacies 06/25/04 The other day I saw a letter from a lady who questioned just about every opinion I have. And that’s all right. The problem is that I think she knows about as much about me as a cow knows about the theory of relativity. Since I have neither the time nor the inclination to address people of her ilk separately I thought that I would write a kind of blanket letter letting them know what I stand for and what I believe in. First of all, since this letter is not intended for everybody let me qualify the kind of people I’m talking about. You think that illiteracy, street crime and the spread of Aids is caused from lack of federal funding. You
think that the murder of an eight and a half month old child You think that Hillary Clinton hung the moon and that Bill Clinton’s looking at the people of America through a television camera and lying to them was ok as long as he apologized. You think that Al Gore was cheated out of the election by Jeb Bush. You think that the United Nations is the end all, be all, answer to all the world’s problems. You think that Trent Lott should be seriously punished for speaking kindly of Strom Thurmond but Senator Dodd’s fawning over a former member of the Klu Klux Klan is perfectly fine. You think that anything that Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpeton say is wonderful no matter how racist or degrading it may be. You think that George Bush and assorted right wing personalities knew about the 9-11 attack before it happened. You believe that President Bush went to war for the benefit of Halliburton. You believe in revisionist history, rewriting it to suit your left leaning vision of the world. You believe that guns should be locked up instead of the criminals who are causing all the trouble with them. You believe that the wealthy should be taxed to within an inch of their poverty. You believe that a person should be able to marry a duck if they want to and that the duck should receive benefits. You believe that drilling for oil in Alaska could bring on another ice age. You believe that there is a vast right wing conspiracy and you probably believe that grape nuts flakes is an incurable venereal disease. OK having said that, just so you don’t make a mistake in understanding me let me tell you how I feel about it. You can’t make somebody learn if they don’t try to or aren’t encouraged to. How can you expect a child to learn in a school surrounded by a no man’s land peopled by punks, pimps and drug dealers who use the justice system like a revolving door, and the A.C.L.U. cries foul every time there is a serious effort to clean it up. Aids are spread mainly by a homosexual lifestyle and don’t take my word for it, look it up. The epidemic in the heterosexual community that was predicted never materialized. Abortion is murder and no amount of intellectualizing can change that fact. If life doesn’t begin at conception when does it begin? Hillary Clinton stands against just about everything I believe in and I wouldn’t vote for her to clean out a subway station in Brooklyn. I think I’ve said enough about Bill in this column for the last several years to let anyone know what I think of him. I don’t believe that Jeb Bush or anybody else for that matter could have stolen the election. The count is in, Gore lost, that’s just the way the cookie crumbles. I think the United Nations is about as useless as mammary glands on a boar hog. We know that the oil for food fraud reaches to the highest levels of the U.N. and if they are for sale at these levels, how do we know they are telling the truth about the weapons of mass destruction? Trent Lot bragged on an old man who no longer has anything to do with the shaping of public policy and got soundly castigated for it. Senator Dodd lauded a former member of the Klu Klux Klan who still serves in the Senate and got nothing for it. Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpeton cause more racial division in this country than they heal. They blame everything on the white race and I know this will probably be an epiphany to some of you folks but the truth is that it just ain’t so. It’s ridiculous to think that anybody in this country, with the exception of the terrorists who pulled it off, knew about 9-11 before it happened. It would be impossible, there’s just too much technology and too many investigative reporters. They’d never get away with it. If you don’t believe that the war in Iraq is the war on terror, who are we fighting over there now? There is an effort under way by those who want to rewrite history to make some of our national heroes criminals and racists. Well let me tell you something. The truth is the truth and you ain’t gonna change it. When
the government gets a tax dollar they drain it through the beaurocracy
and have 28 to 30 cents left to do something useful. When an
American citizen gets a dollar they spend 100 cents releasing
more money into the economy resulting in Real marriage exists only between a man and a woman, and nothing anybody on this earth can do will make it otherwise. There are a lot of people who think that the Holy Bible is irrelevant this day and age. I pity you because the Bible will never be irrelevant. Though heaven and earth pass away, God’s word will never pass away Pray for our troops. What do you think? God Bless America Charlie Daniels
