"The world is not a lodging-house at Brighton, which we are to leave because it is miserable. It is the fortress of our family, with the flag flying on the turret, and the more miserable it is the less we should leave it."
-G. K. Chesterton, Orthodoxy
This here blog is a glimpse or two or three at the condition of the 'fortress of our family' through the eyes Timothy Goddard, a Christian writer with an unhealthy interest in politics living in the Puget Sound area.
Bush to win by 20 points: Michael Moore
Michael Moore has ordered his minions to ignore the polls that show Bush crushing John Kerry into a fine powder and then using him to bake a pie. This is because polls don't call people who only have cell phones. These people, Moore asserts, are more likely to be young. And young people, Moore asserts, are more likely to vote for John Kerry. "Ergo, my underlings," Moore writes (I paraphrase), "step back from that ledge, and remove that homemade hemp rope from around your neck, and give up trying to find the tailpipe on your electric car. I can assure you that those villains will recognize, will discover in appropriate time in the future how stupid they are and how they are pretending things which have never taken place. John Kerry will destroy the infidel Bush!"
Unfortunately for Moore, a recent ABC News/Washington Post poll shows that young people, in fact, are Bush's strongest demographic, leading Kerry by 12 points. If both Moore and this poll are to be believed, then Bush is actually farther ahead than the polls show him. Ain't that a kick in the pants, eh, Mikey?
