Is it really true that political self-interest is nobler somehow than economic self-interest?

Oh wait, I made a mistake. Did I say Limbaugh? I meant liberal talk radio host Randi Rhodes.
On her national radio show, Ms. Rhodes said the following about conservative women:
“You know, these women, somebody really needs to go repossess their ovaries. Really, truly, they have no right to them. They are fabulous, little organs and they have absolutely no right to be estrogen-bearing beings. Okay? Just cut ‘em off, let ‘em go through the hot flashes, let ‘em just sit there and complain about hormone therapy, okay? Just take the ovaries and get it over with. Because they don’t deserve to have estrogen. They really don’t. It’s a privilege.”
Cut off their ovaries. They have no right to them because they disagree with her…
To my liberal friends, where’s the outrage? Why aren’t you demanding her advertisers withdraw support? Or even an apology? Do you stand for women or just those you agree with?

After I stumbled across the picture The Hon. Al has up for himself, I couldn’t help but see the comparison in my mind.
Beware the politically obsessed. They are often bright and interesting, but they have something missing in their natures; there is a hole, an empty place, and they use politics to fill it up. It leaves them somehow misshapen.

On this Memorial day, Pres. Obama joined with a few of White House aides and played his 70th round of golf since becoming President; a sport that Pres. Bush gave up early in his presidency ”out of respect for the families of those killed in Iraq.”
What is Fmr Pres. Bush doing for leisure these days?
Last month, Pres. Bush joined with several wounded veterans and sponsored a 100k mountain biking trip through the South Texas desert. http://www.w100k.com/
When it comes to honoring those who give their all for us…
I’ll take the Texan any day.
