My doctor brother loves to tell me the story of when he was called to the emergency room because one of the retarded children he worked with was there. The kid said, “Dr. Whitaker, I feel just terrible.”
My brother said, “You’re sick. You’re in the hospital. You’re SUPPOSED to feel awful.”
The retarded kid replied, “Okay.”
Why does my brother love to tell me this?
My brother loves to tell me this to demonstrate how LOGICAL retarded children are.
I just did a piece on the age of fourteen.
People will say, “But, Bob, are fourteen year olds ADULT enough to make decisions? ” Nobody seems to assimilate the fact that I honestly, actually consider a retarded child more mature in many ways than than the average college graduate.
I have spent my entire life listening to the group that calls itself The Greatest Generation, and they never came close to maturity.
When someone says, “But is a fourteen year old truly mature I always really want to say, “Listen, God Junior, YOU’RE not mature.”
This clown who is asking me that question would never, in a million years, question circumcision. It is JEWISH practice, and every fahsionable Christian therefore inflicts this traumatic agony on every male child.
It looks like the most unpseakable kind of bullying, but it’s gotta be OK or you’re anaziwhowantstokillsixmillionjews.
If a member of the Greatest Generation is threatened with being a naziwhowantstokillsixmllionsjews do you think he is going to object to torturing an infant?
I know that Generation intimately and I do not know of one member of it, millions strong, who was ever anything but an abject moral coward.
Every person who says he is part of The Greatest Generation agrees that white people must be genocided out. EVERYwhite country have massive third world immigration and integration and ONLY white countries must have this massive immigration and integration.
The spokesmen for The Greatest generation say this is what they fought the War for, and not one of them has ever had the guts to challenge it.
And these dumbos are asking ME whether fourteen year old are as mature as they are?
A parameceum is more mature than you are!
Oops! I think I have slipped into a certain lack of diplomacy here. Surely what I said here was in the heat of the moment.
I couldn’t MEAN it.
You’re probably right.
I’ll read it over tomorrow and see is anything I said here isn’t true.

Bob,
You wouldn’t believe what you can tell a fourteen year old that he will understand but an adult won’t. If you lay out certain facts and explain nothing, he will say, “I see.” If you lay the same facts out to an adult and say nothing, he will either pretend not to understand or his eyes will dilate as he prepares to stone you. I think it’s because of the hardening of the arteries.

Dear Bob; That was funny. I mean really funny. I have to agree with you that finding men with much in the way of guts is not an easy task. Therefore, I have come to the conclusion that they will get what they deserve. But the piece was funny anyway. The way you put it. “Gee, I think I’ll rethink this tomorrow and come to a different conclusion.” I like the way you beat up on people too. I had a fellow tell me fairly recently that he thought I was a misanthrope. So, I had to look up what that meant just to be sure of what he was saying. Apparently, a misanthrope is a hater and I’m not a hater. Never have been. I will admit, though, that man (including myself) doesn’t show me much. I can’t understand why God hasn’t dusted man from this planet. We, on the whole, seem to be such asses. Then along come some really decent human being and my whole position gets seriously jostled. There are good people in the world. I’m sure of it. Just not enough to make me happy. This mass murder in Iraq is a wonderful example of man as scumbag. People who call themselves “Christians” are cheerleading this slaughter on by the millions. I cannot believe that Christ would rubber stamp this brutality.
Yes, I’ve met a lot of horses asses in college. I’ve dug ditches before I entered college with men who had more on the cap than many a college professor. Why Johnny Can’t Think? Wow! I’ve never read it. I can imagine what it says. Thank God someone had the guts to tell the truth. High school graduates in the 1950s had more on the cap than many a college graduate today. I live in West Virginia. I’m a refugee from another state. Schoolmarms here can hardly speak a decent sentence. On average, I mean. I like the hillbillies a lot but I don’t like the despicable politicians here. I should have stayed in the South. I love the South and I love the Southerner. They’re definitely my kind of people. I lived in South Carolina for about a year. I thought I was in heaven. Loved it. Loved the people. The whole idea of a force united to destroy Southern heritage gets under my skin until it lodges in the center of my being. Any country that would allow that to happen doesn’t deserve to survive. That’s my opinion. Charley Reese is a nice guy compared to me.
