Over at the guest blog maintained by my friend, intellectual bud, and bro Al Stefanelli I posted a few strident guest articles.
Some are a little dated as they involved runners in the GOP primary races, others remain very relevant to current debates going on over there on the other side of the Atlantic.
Anyways, rather than repost them here to KOS whole cloth I thought it better to simply post some cross links and let your fingers do the clicking.

I also strongly recommend you check out the thoughts and posts of the man himself - Al Stefanelli - at http://freethoughtblogs.com/... . Al is a much better wordsmith than I, and uses less offensive phraseology and jibes. Whereas Al is moderated (mostly) in the way he addresses the public, I prefer to always make sure my punchlines come with a brass knuckle side salad.
He is, as he says, a sane and reasonable voice in an unreasonable world.
I hope you have a quiet giggle, and that my rants may cause you to think again about stuff.
And to the religulous out there my message is simple:
I'm sorry if what I say offends, but quite frankly my dear I don't give a damn. You started this fight when you shoved your iron age beliefs in my face and the faces of my friends and fellow non believers. Your faith driven stupidity turns women and minorities into second class citizens, prevents social progress, stifles scientific research and rots away at society like a cancer.You are the ones who turned abortion clinics into shooting ranges and bomb sites, public transport into fireballs, and planes into guided missiles.
Keep YOUR faith, bigotry and stupidity behind the doors of YOUR holy houses, out of the public square and out of social and political debates. That is the only reasonable position in a modern plural society. You have had 2000 years or more of getting your own way, now its game over and the gloves are off. Ram YOUR faith in MY face and I will always fight back.
Peace out my US chums.
ABHOR THE WHORE....BASH DOWN THE BULLSHIT....and TEAR DOWN THAT BIG TENT.
