President Bush, speaking at the U.N. yesterday, made another speech about how people are making the choice for freedom the world over.President Bush's speech was remarkably similar to remarks I, Paul M. Sark, made to my liberal sister-in-law, Ginger, last night when she called on the phone to speak to my wife.
See if you don't agree!
THE PRESIDENT: Freedom, by its nature, cannot be imposed -- it must be chosen. From Beirut to Baghdad, people are making the choice for freedom. And the nations gathered in this chamber must make a choice, as well: Will we support the moderates and reformers who are working for change across the Middle East -- or will we yield the future to the terrorists and extremists? America has made its choice: We will stand with the moderates and reformers.
Now read what I said to Ginger:
PAUL M. SARK: Freedom, by its nature, cannot be imposed -- it must grow from the freedom spores that we have been dropping the world over. From Beirut to Baghdad, people must plant the freedom spores we give them. We'll help for awhile, but the nations gathered in this chamber must make a choice, as well: Will we support the Middle Eastern moderates and reformers who accept the freedom spore -- or will we let the killers, murderers, terrorists, extremists and other bad gardeners uproot the tender green shoots of freedom? America has made its choice: We will stand with the tender young shoots.
LIBERAL SISTER-IN-LAW, GINGER: Spores? Shoots? Freedom? You make it all sound like some biology class.
PAUL M. SARK: Freedom is natural and so is biology. People in the Middle East need to listen to their God-given bodies and let the freedom happen.
LIBERAL SISTER-IN-LAW, GINGER: Are we talking orgies here, Paul?
PAUL M. SARK: Of course you liberals always turn everything into a question about sex. You prefer the profane to the sacred. The condom to the cross. You prefer bicycles to cars and walking to riding. Tell me this, if dogs could drive, wouldn't they drive?
LIBERAL SISTER-IN-LAW: Are you asking me if dogs would choose to wear condoms and crosses and drive cars? Let me talk to your wife. I haven't got time for this.
Ginger always gives up and asks to speak to my wife when she doesn't want to admit that I'm right.

Liberal Sister-in-law is a Chavez, isn't she?
There is an argument to be made that true freedom - anarchy - is more natural than civilized society. Thank you for spreading the spore of freedom.
Yes, Beth, you're right! I'm going to start calling her Ginger Chavez. Boy, she'll hate that!
And Grant, I love your joke about ultimate freedom being anarchy, since everybody knows that ultimate freedom exists only in the United States and those countries lucky enough to have been seeded by America's spores!
I'm still laughing!
Ginger is a bitch and takes her beautiful, natural, God given, Freedom-Garden for granted. She oughta uproot and move to Venezuela - see how she likes it there! No Sprouting in Sulphurus South American Soil.
Lydia,
I think I'll have to agree with you on all counts.
Best,
Paul
