The Future Should Belong to the Free

So I saw that Osama released a tape with the very threatening statement, “The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam!” And I was like, “I thought he was dead.” But then I saw it wasn’t Osama, it was Obama. I just assumed it was Osama because that sounds exactly like something a terrorists wearing a mask would say in front of some flag with a crescent on it. But no, that was the president at the U.N. What the what?

Why, in a free country, are we caring so much about what people say about Islam? Whether people say, “I love Islam!” or “Islam is horrible!” is everyone’s prerogative and not the government’s concern unless violence is involved. At least that was the idea when even the left liked to pretend they respected the freedom of speech, but we’re finally seeing some mass movement against that. There were a number of people talking about the guy who made that stupid Islam film being arrested for his speech, and now Slate has an article talking about how the First Amendment isn’t all that great.

This is what happens, people, when we become a nation of sissies. We decide freedom is just too scary to have. I mean, free speech makes people yell at us, so maybe we should limit it. In my new book (which I recommend everyone buy and read), I talk about how to end childhood sissiness so the next generation will be more capable than us to deal with awesomeness and freedom. Right now, each generation is getting softer, and now we’re becoming too wimpy for freedom. Freedom solves most problems, but the one it doesn’t solve is being a coward.

The future belongs to people who aren’t a bunch of ninnies. Obama is leading us down a path to obsolescence.

  1. This is what happens, people, when we become a nation of sissies.

    One of the morning “news” shows had a bit on “things women can borrow from their man’s medicine cabinet”…and the armada of tubes, jars, tins, drums containing creams, oils, etc…which the contemporary “man” is thought to have in his possession nearly had me in a state of reverse peristalsis. That type of “man” is a fembot possessed of more explosive flames than a July 4th fireworks display.

    Just a hundred years back, men had to know how to saddle a horse, sight and fire a rifle, start a car with a handcrank, shaved themselves with a straight razor and bathed using lye soap. They rode on coal-powered trains, lived in homes mostly illuminated by gas.

    It is shameful that we have become so soft by comparison….how many of these contemporary “men” would brown their trousers, shriek, and cower under the (designer) kitchen table should the power go out?

    Amazon already makes a Kindle Fire. Maybe they just stack them in a pile and pretend they actually did something. Then everyone gets theirs back…. Better than throwing away someone else’s medals to make a point.
