Time cover makes great dart target

I got the new issue of Time today and immediately put it to use. I couldn't think of a better target for my dart board. In fact, I suddenly had the urge to play darts for the first time in a long time.

Man of the year my ass! How about deceiver of the year! I will never spend any money on Time. This is my second issue of part of a Christmas gift from my Mother-in-law. She always gives thoughtful gifts, and I'm enjoying this one more than most. I can't wait to see what the second half is.

Seriously, couldn't Time have chosen a man who is a champion for life, who defends the most innocent of us all, the newborn and the unborn. No, they pick someone who is a proponent of infanticide and opposed to helping the most helpless in our society. This is simply pure evil and completely contrary to our Declaration of Independence that states that we believe in the natural human rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. If we can't defend the most basic right to life that is stated in our most sacred of national documents, that is the cornerstone of our foundation, than where is our identity? We have broken our very foundation!

What kind of magazine has the balls to place such an absurdity on the front page and expect to stay in business? It's like saying "Hello, we are idiots and have no backbone nor laurels!".

ABSURD!!!

The quote listed in the header of this blog is an abridgment of a quote of Ezra Taft Benson. Here it is in it's entirety:

In times as serious as these, we must not permit fear of criticism to keep us from doing our duty, even at the risk of our counsel being tabbed as political, as government becomes more and more entwined in our daily lives. In the crisis through which we are now passing, we have been fully warned. There are some of us who do not want to hear the message. It embarrasses us. The things which are threatening our lives, our welfare, our freedoms are the very things some of us have been condoning. Many do not want to be disturbed as they continue to enjoy their comfortable complacency. There can be no neutrality! We are, or we are not, on the side of the Lord! (Ezra Taft Benson, 1973)
