About

Mostly Links
This site is basically an old-fashioned link and pullquote blog without comment facilities. For some that means this isn’t a ‘real’ blog so I’ve taken to calling it ‘not-a-blog’. You can call it what you want, who cares?

All politics stink

Fairness, idealism and other atrocities - P J O'Rourke

Get politically uninvolved! All politics stink. Even democracy stinks. Imagine if our clothes were selected by the majority of shoppers, which would be teenage girls. I'd be standing here with my bellybutton exposed. Imagine deciding the dinner menu by family secret ballot. I've got three kids and three dogs in my family. We'd be eating Froot Loops and rotten meat.

I do not necessarily agree with, support or approve of a blog, website or comment just because I’ve linked to it here. Permission to quote text or publish images has neither been sought nor granted and is assumed under the rules of ‘fair use’. I don’t give a toss what you do with material on this site but obviously a link would be nice!
