Those Young Republicans

AUSTIN, TX. The Young Conservatives of Texas, University of Texas Chapter, announced today that they will be displaying an "ACLU Nativity Scene" on the West Mall of the University of Texas campus on Monday and Tuesday, December 4th and 5th. The group?s intent is to raise awareness on the extremity of the ACLU, and bring to light its secular-progressive efforts to remove Christmas from the public sphere. The display, the first of its kind in the nation, will feature characters that are quite a bit different than the standard crèche.

"We've got Gary and Joseph instead of Mary and Joseph in order to symbolize ACLU support for homosexual marriage, and of course there isn?t a Jesus in the manger," said Chairman Tony McDonald. "The three Wise Men are Lenin, Marx, and Stalin because the founders of the ACLU were strident supporters of Soviet style Communism. The whole scene is a tongue-in-cheek way of showing the many ways that the ACLU and the far left are out of touch with the values of mainstream America."

Sorry bout that huge pic....can one of you Cellar dudes tweak that?

Yeah,but since I'm not a wheel you'll have to delete your photo.

This is about as erroneous as can be... and great, because it shows this organizations true colors.
This does nothing but help the ACLU, good for them.

Lenin, Marx, and Stalin? Yuck, no thanks:mad:

oh, and all this time I had you down as a red :P

The Young Conservatives of Texas, University of Texas Chapter, haven't got a clue.... probably never will.

What's the matter with kids, to-daaaaaaaaay. :rolleyes:

I think its awful - young people speaking their minds - whats the world coming to anyway?

You have to keep in mind, the display is on the West Mall, which is essentially the University's "free-speech zone." Every day there is something extreme, humorous, political, etc. out there. Some friends of mine once hosted a mock rally on those steps combining the "Abortion is Murder" and "Meat is Murder" people into the logical conclusion that "Abortion = Meat" and distributed fliers on how to properly cook a fetus.

This is a stunt, like everything else out there.

Who said they should be stopped?

Hahahaha. That's beautiful logic.

Karl Marx is bringing Gary and Joseph child porn as a gift. Did they simply mis-spell "Tom Cruise Calendar 2007" or is this something in Das Kapital that people try not to mention?

Wait, the ACLU is for child porn [SIZE="4"]???[/SIZE] GODDAMN THOSE MOTHERFUCKING BASTARDS!!! [COLOR="DimGray"] :::votes Republican::: [/COLOR]

They should be naked from the neck down, wearing only KKK hoods.

The guy on the left looks like a suicide bomber, but who is the angel floating above their heads?

That's Nancy Pelosi, the evil angel from equally evil San Francisco.

What kills me is that people like Stalin violated civil rights. You could look at this creche as something the ACLU put up. Most "Young Republicans" seem to express a knee-jerk, reactionary politics. People hate the ACLU until they need them.

And why is Karl Marx so horrible? If you want to understand capitalism and the relationships between labor, profit, and ownership of the means of production, Marx should be required reading, even for Young Republicans.

And many historians of religion would tell you that the solstice is indeed the root of most Northern Hemispherical religions. The SUN and The SON are very similar in meaning.

I thought it was supposed to be Hillary.

She and Nancy are both evil though, and pretty much interchangable.

Karl Marx inspired genocides. He and his should be stacked in Hell for cordwood therefore. As for understanding labor, profit, and capitalism properly done, you'd do better to start with Henry Hazlitt and Adam Smith and then scour the libertarian reading library. Remember that Marx posited a "Labor Theory of Value" which does not model value at all, but models cost of production. Taking Marx seriously means you cannot understand economic theory, and without understanding of economics, disaster and poverty both follow. Horrible.

You wouldn't see that much similarity of root-words anywhere except in the Germanic languages -- definitely nowhere in the Romance languages. Even the Russian, and likely the other Slavic languages, which are all pretty close to each other, whose words for son and sun do both start with an S, diverge quite a lot after the initial letter; an S then a vowel is about as near as they stay bound.
