****Caution: Rant****
Round One: Let me address this problem first. I'm mad at the NFL. I'm angry because they're as politically correct as the, well, as the politicians. And it makes me sick. Because the so-called fans of the game are "outraged" because of the bounty hunters in football. Really? Every time a player goes on the field to compete, he is asked to hit his opponent hard. If he can intimidate his opponent by stunning tackles, all the better. It's called football. No, we don't want to see any of them get hurt, but look at the sizes of these competitors. Their speed, their muscularity, their intensity. Unleashed. Controlled mayhem. Look at the highlight reels. See the contortions of these athletes catching passes, throwing passes, running into defenders, pursuing quarterbacks? It's not a girly game. People watch football because it's technical skills-meet-power collisions. No, we don't want to see the attitudes of "the assassin" revisited. We want to see fair games, hard hits, little interference by the referees, and the ongoing display of the athletes that were born to play the game of football. If coaches and players make stupid decisions, let it be handled in house. If a fine is warranted or even a firing: fine. Just get it done without sweeping the whole stupid uninformed pseudo fans into it.
Round Two: I'm furious about the Rush Limbaugh flap. Those who hate Rush, those who've never listened to his program, those who have no morals except when it comes to citing Rush for using "offensive" language to refer to Ms. Sandra Fluke's, a leftist women's activist, efforts to get free birth control and abortion provisions into Catholic universities and everywhere else under Obamacare, are thrilled about certain of his advertisers bailing like rats on a sinking ship. The latest "dismissal" by Ms. Fluke of Rush's apology for using the words "slut" and "prostitute" in his absurdist example of Ms. Fluke wanting contraception and abortion provided for "free" is another effort by the liberal left to give this woman her 15 minutes of fame for supposedly taking down the conservative talk radio king Rush Limbaugh.
Rush Limbaugh admitted sinking to the level of the left in his absurdist response to Ms. Fluke's plea to the likes of Nancy Pelosi and other women Democrats at their assembled press conference. He apologized not for his point which was reasonable and valid but for the choice of his words in reference to the example Ms. Fluke set before this panel. None of these women complained about the left's vulgarity when referring to Sarah Palin. Not one of them stood up and expressed their "outrage".
Ms. Fluke and the liberal left do more damage to womanhood than anything Rush Limbaugh could possibly say or do. I'm disgusted by their hypocrisy, double-standard, self-righteous ideology. Woe to those who call evil good and good evil.
God, forgive me for the struggle in my soul. The anger I feel. Help me not to sin in my anger. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.
