I find myself more and more in favor of Proposition FU.

From Digbys, this snippet from Phyllis Schlafly. Let's see how many categories I fall into:
You know who they are. You’ve seen them. The pro-abortion fanatics and the radical feminists, the atheists who file lawsuits attacking the pledge of allegiance and the ten commandments, the environmentalist tree-hugging animal-rights extremists, the one-world globalists who worship at the altar of the United Nations and international law, the militant homosexuals and the anti-military hippie pieceniks, the racial agitators who believe we are all created equal but some are a little more equal than others, the union bosses and the socialists posing as journalists and college professors, the government bureaucrats and the tax-and-spend junkies, the Hollywood elitists, the air-headed actors and singers who think that we actually care what they think, the pornographers who fund the leftists and who won’t be happy until every Bible in every child’s hands is replaced with the latest copy of Hustler magazine, and of course the gun-grabbing trial lawyers and their willing accomplices in the United States Senate who won’t be happy until they disarm every last citizen down to the last bee bee and paintball gun.
I'm pretty liberal and I don't think I fit any of these stereotypes, and neither does anybody I know. But if David Brooks is any indicator, apparently you don't need to know these people; just pull generalized observations out of your ass (and rip on the highly educated and the university-town secularists because lord knows they're the ones who are threatening federal judges) and you'll be fine. Bastards.
