suburban farm why liberals hate horses october 19 2010 1 comment the competitive racing of horses is reputed to have originated among the prehistoric nomadic tribesmen of central asia who first domesticated the horse about 4500 bc for thousands of years horseracing flourished as the sport of kings and the nobility it is the second most widely attended u s spectator sport after baseball the interaction between horses and their owners as well as the notion of winning and losing has ordinarily resonated very well on the screen the jeff bridges 2003 movie about seabiscuit is a case in point after all who can hate a horse liberal can that s who according to rush limbaugh it appears that liberals or at least some liberals have expressed a profound hatred of a new movie about a winning horse and his owners my wife and i saw secretaria t the other night it is the dramatic presentation of the behind the scenes story of one of racing s greatest winners in 1973 big red won the sport s coveted triple crown the best horse of all time it is a feat that has been accomplished only eleven times since sir barton won the kentucky derby the preakness stakes and the belmont in 1919 it is composed of these three different races in five weeks and in three different states and at varying distances secretariat won all three races capping off his crown with an incredible 31 length victory at new york s belmont stakes it was a wonderful movie staring the demure dianne lane in an inspiring role as a strong willed woman who put winning and saving the family farm above her secure and cozy life in colorado how could anyone find fault with that then i started thinking about this movie being a paean to conservative values its protagonist penny chenery had a crisis in her family the mother of lane s character penny chenery dies early in the movie and her grief stricken father drifted into the deep recesses of his own mind penny valiantly tried to make a go of the farm at great personal sacrifice and to the discomfort of her husband and four children the real drama occurred after the father s death from a stroke as penny s boorish brother the economics professor and her lawyer husband advised her they needed to sell secretariat to pay the six million dollar estate tax bill but penny would not quit penny would not quit she showed a deep seated american trait of intelligence and ingenuity to circumvent the intended destruction of her family run farm penny was the personification of economist julia simon s argument that man and woman with his ingenuity and entrepreneurial spirit is the ultimate resource this is what created the drama of the movie and perhaps the real complaint behind the liberal angst penny was able to pay her taxes by establishing a consortium of investors in secretariat s projected winnings all on speculation the movie is also a vivid illustration of the innate harm of the estate tax or the death tax that has confiscated billions in family wealth what most people forget or never knew is that the estate tax is one of the most onerous planks in karl marx and frederick engels 1848 pamphlet the communist manifesto salon columnist andrew o hehir found some even darker things about american individualism and traditional values that upset his mental applecart he savagely attacked penny s character even demeaning she was dressed in a resplendent collection of period knitwear and steel magnolia tude to o hehir she is like a classed up version of sarah palin feminism this leftist critic was upset that lane s iron willed superwoman striking and magisterial but utterly nonsexual illuminated from within like a medieval saint does not have despicable characteristics that would make her his kind of gal i thought liberals liked strong women a strong woman liberals hate this is is by far the strongest character lane has ever played and she carried the role with a dignity and aplomb that hopefully will win her an oscar maybe they only love certain strong women who abort their children cheat on their husbands or sleep with other women lane does none of that she is june clever who just passed away this week without the pearls who will do anything to preserve her family s traditions and enjoy the thrill of the game o hehir was also disturbed by his perception that so many all right thinking americans are united in their adoration of a nietzschean überhorse the nazi implications of his thinking are as subtle as a train wreck to him secretariat is creepy half hilarious master race propaganda almost worthy of leni riefenstahl a symbolic window dressing for a quasi inspirational fantasia of american whiteness and power for o hehir to see this in nietzschean terms is as appetizing as a 300 pound woman trying to squeeze into a size 4 it just doesn t fit a nazi horse religion is also another problem for o hehir while director randall wallace references barely mentions the social context of the times o hehir is convinced that this movie was constructed and marketed with at least one eye on christian consevatives who flock to tea parties and embraced a movie of a similar vein from last year the blind side the film opens with a voice over passage from the book of job and ends with a hymn wallace also the director of we were warrior s and the writer of braveheart and both mel gibson movies and is one of mainstream hollywood s few prominent christians who has spoken openly about his faith and his desire to make movies that appeal to people with middle american values o hehir also finds a troubling racial subtext in secretariat in the groom eddie who is an african american groom belongs to a far more insidious tradition of movie stereotypes eddie dances and sings but can he dance and sing he loves jesus and that big ol horse he is loyal and deferential to miz penny and injects soul and spirit into her troubled life i guess o hehir prefers the gang banging rap spouting drug dealing nihilists whose stereotypical figures dominates in movies about black people today as being more reflective of african american culture he is upset by movies with strong family members with its moral values who support each other in the long run liberal criticism of this movie that does not have any scenes of gratuitous sex or violence and does not have any foul language is proof positive that liberalism is a mental illness it is probably unfair of me to say that all liberals hate horses i know that many are quite fond of the proletarian horse boxer barbara in george orwell s novel animal farm a liberal s kind of horse posted in uncategorized tags animal farm communist manifesto diane lane nazis rush limbaugh secretariat sport of kings triple crown the 54 conundrum october 17 2010 6 comments in the 1920s bruce barton was more just an advertising executive he was also a man determined to make business into something like an object of worship and the business executive into the truest spiritual descendant of jesus christ in the man nobody knows the two main characteristics jesus had were his blazing conviction and his wonderful power to pick men exactly the two attributes barton says a successful business executive has to have his book sold well and was also distributed free to managers and salesmen in business firms only strong men can lead and jesus had millions follow him over the years according to author og mandino st paul was the greatest salesman in the world knew how to sell it is interesting that these two movtivational speakers used christianitry to emphasize principles of salesmanship probably because of the great number of faithful and ardent catholics throughout history can we say that now look at the church teachings on life thou shalt not kill is the 5 th commandment and abortion is directly linked to the killing of innocent beings yet it can t sell its position even to its own people just look at the last election 54 of the american voters voted for barack obama the most pro abortion president in history when he was in the illinois state house he voted present many times which was the equivalent of a no vote to stop a bill that would have protected the nascent lives of abortion survivors who were often put into a waste can and sequestered in some closet to die now why is that how is it that the church has failed to sell this most blessed event to its own people are they only cultural catholic or what we may call cinos catholics in name only or is there something else going on what are the obstacles to the selling of the life of the unborn child many of them are cultural our flawed nature is clearly evident in the culture s vast saturation with sex thanks to the likes of alfred kinsey and hugh hefner sexual frequency and variety seem to be the rule instead of fidelity and quality another cultural obstacle is the narcissist nature of many of our opinion makers who stress the existential importance of making our own decisions independent of parents family church and ethics another important obstacle is the reigning mind set of many in the catholic church i am talking about church leaders themselves many of the actual pro life leaders who seem to undermine their own message i am basically talking about the principle of the seamless garmen t i call it the shroud of bernardin the metaphor of the seamless garment dates back to john s gospel 19 23 where the roman soldiers cast lots for jesus tunic which was seamless woven in one piece from the top this principle places the heinous evils of abortion and euthanasia on the same moral plane as war poverty the death penalty immigration tax cuts anti the federal deficit education health care crime and the minimum wage the seamless garment appears as a symbol of unity designed to underscore the church s deep concern f or all human life from the moment of conception to natural death cynics would say that the seamless garment had been contrived to shroud catholic politicians under a protective mantel of ecclesiastical approval charity dictates that the divisiveness of the seamless garments was just one of a host of unintended consequences that spoiled a pious attempt to recognize the sanctity of all human life whether unintentionally or maliciously the cardinal s garment has served as a shroud under which several catholic politicians have been able to hide for over twenty years the seamless garment has trivialized the church s opposition to abortion euthanasia and embryonic stem cell research by equating it with civil rights the death penalty and the minimum wage cardinal bernardin s seamless garment has produced anything but unity in the church on prolife issues his metaphor has served to undermine contradict and provide a false moral equivalency that has ruptured and seriously damaged the church s historical teachings against abortion his garment undermined pro life movement the seamless garment has been effectively used to rip and fray opposition to abortion euthanasia and embryonic stem cell research the most important threads in the seamless garments it has permitted culture of death politicians to advocate a variegated list of anti life programs that have blatantly contradicted the teachings of the church on the sanctity of innocent life it is the policy that under the rubric of pro life there are many different issues that are often summarized under the umbrella slogan of from conception to natural death is any word missing from that definition without the word innocent i believe the motto is worthless i also understand it is the mantra for father pavone the founder of priests for life who will be following me next time i interviewed him on ksiv for phyllis schlafly a few years ago and told him that i didn t see any difference between that and the seamless garments because it seems to include the same broad spectrum of life issues as does bernardin s garment that is precisely the intent of the seamless garment to obscure and literally bury the triad of real life issues and the only ones that should attract your major attention and they are abortion euthanasia and embryonic stem cell research all the others are secondary where are the bishops in all of this it is true that in a pluralistic society the church cannot impose its moral teachings on society as a whole but the bishops have an ecclesiastical responsibility of following the three verb job description of their holy office which is to teach govern and sanctify their flocks they have a moral responsibility to demand that the church s visible members reflect its teachings in the same breath that they proclaim themselves to be good catholics for the bishops to declare that pro abortion politicians cannot be in the state of grace because of their obstinacy in face of the church s teaching and their persistence in scandalizing the rest of the faithful they are not guilty of excessive vigilance they are merely performing their magisterial duty in accordance with canons 915 and 916 this reminds me of the durbin survey just before the 2004 national elections democratic senator richard durbin of illinois released a report in early june of 2004 that analyzed the votes of 24 catholic u s senators on a variety of issues of great interest to the united states conference of catholic bishops usccb during the 108 th congress 2003 2004 took unscientific poll the issues where divided into three areas domestic international and pro life there was no sliding scale each category was morally equally the death of an unborn baby carried as much value as a 50 cent raise in the minimum wage this underscores the liberal approach to societal problems and religious integrity not surprisingly senator john kerry durbin and edward kennedy all earned scores of just over 60 in accordance with the issues promulgated by the usccb republican senators peter fitzgerald and sam brownback who have consistently voted against abortion scored just over 50 santorum was about 53 another stark contrast to modern catholic politicians is the story of st thomas more who defied his king for the love of his church in the 16 th century st thomas more the patron saint of lawyers and politicians refused to approve the act of supremacy of king henry viii whereby the king declared himself to be the head of the church church came first more and henry had been lifelong friends but the king s defiance of rome because of his celebrated divorce of his first queen catherine of aragon so he could marry his pregnant mistress ann boleyn painted more into a deadly corner before his beheading in the tower of london in 1535 more modestly proclaimed i am the...
