Looks like we may finally have our revolution.  At the very least, conservatives are finally taking it to the street,  something they should have been doing a long time ago.  The street no longer belongs to the liberals.

White House Deputy Chief of Staff Jim Messina warns that Democrats will "punch back twice as hard" in response to further punches from the conservative grassroots.  To which I reply:  yeah, well, screw you pal.  We'll hit you back so hard that it'll hurt the guy down the street from you.

Big Flush Toilet opines with a real humdinger of a blog entry here.

For liberty!

That's what the liberal-lefty enviro-idolaters say, anyway.

We say save Christian culture:  have lots of kids.

This is EXACTLY what we want: we must increase, but they must decrease.

the last paragraph, to read as follows. Edits are indicated in bold:

Read the linked articles on the "Resources" page and check back for new ones, have a look at the books I've recommended, look in on the blog if it suits your fancy, and see the "Sites 'n Blogs" section under "Resources" for other chatterers of note. You'll find this website eclectic and ecumenical (in the good sense of that word), combining insights from Orthodox (and orthodox) Christianity on the theological side, and from paleolibertarianism and paleoconservatism on the political side, in an attempt to articulate a distinctively American Orthodox worldview. Feel free to contact me with questions, comments, and even disgrunts. Just send me no viruses, please.

I want to make it clear to any of my Orthodox brethren who are looking in (and I'm getting hits, for instance, from St. Vlad's Theological Seminary), that my views, while informed by Orthodox theology, are equally informed by early American political theory.  And proudly so.  Many Orthodox Christians are critical of the American phronema because of its individualism, revolutionism, anti-authoritarianism, general "Western" orientation and what have you, but I am not critical of it.   I am not critical of it or of Western culture in general because, as William Bennett once put it, "it is good, and it is ours."   I thoroughly adhere, for instance, to the Christian resistance theory developed by a number of Medieval Western and Enlightenment-era theologians and philosophers, which resistance theory played a monumental role in the American Revolution.   And when I hear Orthodox officialdom wax critical of the American political worldview, I simply turn a deaf ear.  I am not a Byzantine.  I am an American.

So, when you see the revolutionary spirit expressed in these blog entries, know that I am not your "typical" Orthodox.   Know as well that I don't have a "blessing" from any Orthodox priest to opine as I do on this web site.  I don't need any such blessing, and I therefore haven't sought it.  I am, after all, an American, and to be an American in the true sense of the word is to be a rebel.  (It's a Celtic thing.)

Everyone here who is surprised, raise your hands.

What was that your said, President Obongo? You won't raise taxes on 95 percent of Americans?

You lying hound. And then you have your boy Geithner deliver the message. Coward.

Torches and pitchforks time, ladies and gentlemen.

Now this is just the coolest thing in the world.
