[Warning to Sensible Types: --MAY CAUSE JAW DROPPING AND HAIR TEARING--]
Many thanks to Think Progress and Alan Colmes for the interview and post. But many more thanks to John Derbyshire himself for being so shockingly dense, oblivious and backwards that he provides a shining indictment of why Conservatism is a pathetic crock of shit.
What can you say of an idiot that would repeal the Nineteenth Amendment of 1920, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965? The classic partisanship-until-you-die-of-stupidity on proud display here is like catnip to the right wing. It’s the abyss of obstinate stupidity for the rest of us–fathom it if you dare…
Alan: What is the case against female suffrage?
John: Well the conservative case against it is that, is that women lean hard to the left. They, uh, they want someone to, to nurture, they want someone to help raise their kids, and if men aren’t inclined to do it, which in the present days they’re not much, then they’d like the state to do it for them.
A: Well, do you think women should not vote?
J: Uhh…I’m not putting forward a political program, here, I’m trying to change attitudes, Alan, you know?
A: Well, when you say ‘The Case Against Female Suffrage,’ the suggestion is that them voting would not be the best thing for you.
J: Among the hopes that I do not realistically nurse is the hope that female suffrage will be repealed.
There are so many things to shred in this entire clip, I could spend a huge post on it, but I won’t.
1). You notice how he qualifies his case against women’s suffrage as the ‘conservative case’? That’s because ‘reality’ doesn’t matter. The case ‘in reality’ against women having the right to vote is obviously a horrible joke that doesn’t need detailing to anybody here. Among Conservatives, however, it’ll be forever the sort of thing they could write books about, hold conventions over. A pack of Boba Fett wannabes at a Comic Con are better equipped to make decisions for the nation than these idiots.
Last week, Sparkman’s death became fodder for more attacks on “right-wing violence.” Bloggers wanted to “send the body to Glenn Beck,” and a Time magazine piece speculated that Sparkman was a victim of the culture of another McCain-voting Southern state
UPDATE: Before any more people start going bonkers that I’m accusing Sparkman of anything, take a breath. I’ve done a fair amount of crime blogging mixed in with politics over time. One doesn’t rule anything in or out without some firm answers. People feel free to speculate about Meth labs and pot fields but none have been reported in the area, yet. All I’m doing is looking at any and all possibilities. You’d think a moonshiner, or Meth head would have just buried the guy. Why hang him and invite the Feds into it by writing Fed on his chest? Why strip him naked and bind and gag him, which has serious sexual overtones?
Thanks to TB in North Carolina, BD in Maryland, AL in Rhode Island, a big thanks to JS in Virginia, and a huge thanks to Nathan in Missouri, the 
So now we have to come to grips with this murder, an absolutely shocking event, a nightmare. If it turns out to be the hysterical lashing out of an anti-government/census lunatic, it’d indicate the country has a bigger problem than we’d perhaps like to admit: political hysteria-speech affects ‘regular folks’, to the point of enabling, if not outright stoking, homicide.
Fox scaremongers video of Jersey’s Bernice elementary rapping about Obama. Angry morons threaten Arkansas’ Bernice elementary.
New Jersey school children ’singing’ a Christian spiritual song? But about Barack Hussein Obama instead of Jesus? Piling praise on the guy just because it’s February, which is Black History Month?
They’re trying to kill the children. Where the fuck did these lyrics come from, mister? There needs to be an investigation, followed by a gutting, and then perhaps a war.
Angry Callers Mistake NWA School for NJ Elementary School
Officials in one Northwest Arkansas elementary school says people across the nation and Canada are calling them, angry about a You Tube video that shows the students singing a song about President Obama. But they say it’s all a case of mistaken identity.
Bernice Young Elementary School in Springdale has been taking angry calls from all over the country from people upset about a You Tube video of B. Bernice Young school kids singing about President Barack Obama. There’s only one problem: it wasn’t the Springdale Bernice Young students doing the singing. The song went something like this: “Red, yellow, black or white, all are equal in his sight. Mmm, mmm, mm! Barack Hussein Obama.”
It was a video that sent Springdale’s Bernice Elementary Principal, Debbie Flora, into a slight panic. “We did not know what they were talking about. We’ve had calls from Texas, Tennessee, Quebec, Maryland. Um, some of them did not use very kind language when they called the school. But they were mostly mad.”
…they were also amazingly stupid and racist: these are straight off the Fox Nation website that hosted the article and video…
