Damn, I love that man.
UPDATE: I was reminded that I used “Han shot first!” way back in 2004 when I wrote “(I)t’s most important that all potential victims be as dangerous as they can”.
Bill Whittle: Anti-Intellectual Rightwing Extremist
The entire premise of the new movie is that Spock takes an extraordinary risk to make sure that he himself is not sitting in the command chair because no one knows more than Spock just how dangerous it is to have an intellectual in charge.
You HAVE to watch the thing all the way through the credits!
Mr. Whittle, I bow in your general direction. We are not worthy.
Now, get to work on the new “Common Sense.”
This Sounds Promising
Bill Whittle has posted again. I don’t check on him daily any more, just once every couple of weeks. His latest post is dated June 3, so I’m not that far behind.
He says his latest hiatus has been due to the writing of a screenplay, but that in the mean time he has also written some essays (in his head) soon to be posted. With respect to the screenplay, I hope he sells it, retains creative control, and makes a freaking fortune off of it.
With respect to his essays, I’m most eagerly awaiting those:
THE REPUBLIC OF EMOTION — How schools and modern teaching methods prepare us to be a society of self-centered crybabies without a clue as to how to think critically and act like adults.
LIFEBOAT — immigration and why the Melting Pot whips the Mosaic hands down and twice on Sunday.
THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT — The long-promised Global Warming essay, less about the science and more about the aneurism of politics and control that gives a very big lever to some very bad people.
THE WEIGHT OF OUR SKINS — A look at race, now that the Great Uniter has healed my soul.
THE PLAGUE — Civilizations rise and fall, and the pattern is always the same. Why? I think I may have an idea. And there may be a way around it.
“The Republic of Emotion” piece sounds like a bookend for The George Orwell Daycare Center. I very much look forward to seeing what he has to say on the subject. Same too for “The Plague.” That topic concerns me greatly. Hell, I want to read ’em all.
Welcome back, Bill. We’ve missed ya!
