I think the link I posted above with Shaw, in his own words, calling for the abandonment of the Constitution and the courts, is directly relevant to Z's post about Obama since it's not a new idea but is something the termites undermining Western Civilization recognize as a necessity for the accomplishment of their objectives.<br /><br />I don't dispute most of your list of villains in the history of the 20 Century advance of statism. Of. course, I'd replace Lincoln with George Bernard Shaw as a major contributor to our current malaise. <br /><br />I have to say that I have difficulty understanding over-the-top admiration for GBS for his "genius" in play writing while ignoring the simple fact that he, himself, considered those play only a means to his ultimate philosophical and political ends — and that was his statism as his outright admiration for the likes of Lenin, Stalin, Hitler and Mussolini. I doubt he had a high regard for those who praised his work since he thought he was "only telling the truth" while most people thought he was witty and humorous.<br /><br />His plays were part of the school curriculum when I went to school and so was "Brave New World" written by Shaw's fellow Fabian Socialist, Aldous Huxley. I think the premise of Huxley's envisioned future has stuck with me for many years and it's one that I could not embrace or submit to.<br /><br />WaylonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5516627478339613810.post-41143361192186030842010-05-07T06:49:57.286-07:002010-05-07T06:49:57.286-07:00Waylon,

However, they did form the basis of what became today's Labour Party in Britain. <br /><br />I imagine most of the early Fabian Socialists would be appalled at the fruits of their labors, if they were alive to observe them today. Not so the hate-based Bolsheviks whose intent was always to destroy.<br /><br />Most of us forget -- or never knew -- there was much about 19th and early 20th century society that warranted reform. <br /><br />Focus your resentment on Lincoln, Marx, Engels, Lenin, Trotsky, Stalin, Gramsci, The Frankfurt School, the New York Intellectuals and Alinsky and of course Woodrow Wilson and both the Roosevelts.<br /><br />There are hundreds more of these termites who've munched away at the foundations of Western Civilization. Shaw, whatever his eccentricities, was definitely not one of them. Instead he was one of the greatest CONTRIBUTORS to Western culture,<br /><br />Big Subject! This was supposed to be about Obama's attitude toward the court. But of course, were it not for the machinations of those foul influences I listed above -- and others too numerous to know -- a character like Boobooma would not be in a position to determine the fate of this once-great nation.<br /><br />We've been in steep decline since long before most of us were born, but it AIN'T because of George Bernard Shaw.<br /><br />~ FreeThinkeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5516627478339613810.post-78254327682115489612010-05-06T22:10:08.708-07:002010-05-06T22:10:08.708-07:00Just about the time I think I'm coming out of ...Just about the time I think I'm coming out of SHOCK, Obozo turns another corner and boldly exposes more of his ignorance of this country and the job he holds!!!<br /><br />And Chucky Schemer actually said that???

But somehow I think that subjective evaluation has to be tied to reality — hos those ideas relate to the real world. Shaw in his own words and by his own actions advocated for powerful expanded government interference into the life of the individual.<br /><br />The quotation over which you wax rhapsodic about to me reveals exactly what I perceive in the larger picture of the ideas of Shaw. I definitely don't see anything libertarian in it and I doubt Shaw would advocate anything pro liberty for the individual and would demand the surrender of the responsibility of the individual for the right to choose anything — period.<br /><br />In the link above he asserts that the correct he perceived in America back in the '20's and '30's that the Constitution be repealed and courts abolished. That sounds more like Marx (or Lenin rather than Karl's more avuncular) brother Groucho.<br /><br />WaylonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5516627478339613810.post-9779528709878214792010-05-06T16:23:14.678-07:002010-05-06T16:23:14.678-07:00"HAS HE TOTALLY AND COMPLETELY FORGOTTEN THAT...<b><i>"HAS HE TOTALLY AND COMPLETELY FORGOTTEN THAT WE HAVE A CONSTITUTION?"</i></b><br /><br /><br />The "Law" Professor...the "Constitutional" expert?

"This is...One of my favorite quotes from GBS:<br /><br /><b><i>"This is the true joy in life, the being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one; the being thoroughly worn out before you're thrown on the scrap heap; the being a force of Nature instead of a feverish, selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy."</i></b><br /><br />~ George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950) <br /><br />That sounds like a conservative/libertarian sentiment to me. <br /><br />When was the last time you saw Pygmalion, Major Barbara, or Heartbreak House, Waylon? Shaw was a genius, and like most such he was also a great eccentric. There was far more danger in Marx, Engels, Gramsci, The Frankfurt School and The New School for Social Research than there was in Shaw. You may have been listening to too much Glenn Beck. A little knowledge can be a dangerous thing. <br /><br />~ FTAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5516627478339613810.post-91232320940330737572010-05-06T15:41:44.024-07:002010-05-06T15:41:44.024-07:00When Alito or Roberts was nominated to the SCOTUS,...When Alito or Roberts was nominated to the SCOTUS, Chuck Schumer was running his mouth at a press conference saying how important it was to scrutinize the pick because the SCOTUS's job of "making law" was so important.
