Greek playwright Aeschylus is recognized as the father of tragedy. He once noted: “He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep pain, which cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, until in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom through the awful grace of God.”
Oh yeah, clearly this guy wasn’t big on comedy. He did however recognize that true understanding is often super-glued to a swift kick in the head. Who wants wisdom if you have to listen to that darn dripping noise of common reason all night long?
This underscores the genius of voter manipulation by name design.
Do you want to pass a bill in Congress? Then name it the “Love America and Protect Our Children From Radioactive Mutant Tree Sloths” bill. Anyone who votes against it must not love America.
Either that or they must want to throw your children into the leaf-eating jaws of death! What’s the bill about? Oh, it’s to approve $120 billion in adjunct spending on refitting helicopter landing gear. Now back to the bill. You don’t want arboreals feeding on the brains of our children, do you?
