Commenter Conservatively Liberal at Balloon Juice” regarding the mindset of the average wingnut (and don’t forget to read the post that sparked this comment, Cole’s link to Red State’s wondiferous plan to cut ALL Federal Taxes — that’s right, all of them, all sources of government revenue — in order to save the economy):
I was joking with our daughter about how stupid these wingnuts are. She made the usual observation that it seems like everything they do is exactly the opposite of whatever the Democrats do. If the Democrats are for it then they are against it. Musing, I wondered what would happen if the Democrats decided to sponsor a bill that outlaws the specific act of putting a bullet in your head. Do you think that the wingnuts would start arguing that everyone has the right to put a bullet in their head if they want to?
As for my answer to Conservatively Liberal’s question, yes, yes I do think our Reich Wingers would demand the right to put a bullet in their heads if Democrats tried to pass a law banning it. Isn’t that what the Second Amendment is for – the right to blow the top of your skull off with your own firearm?
