There’s always some animated root vegetable who wants to rule the rest of us–and always for our own good, of course. President Woodrow Wilson would have liked to have been something more than president.
He was ahead of his time.
His Bible substitute was a novel with the catchy title, Philip Dru: Administrator: A Story of Tomorrow, 1920-1935. He liked it so much, he made its author, Col. House, his chief foreign policy advisor.
Now we know what Stephen King was doing during the Obama years.
My grandpa loathed Woodrow Wilson. He had good reason to.
We can learn a lot about what made President Wilson tick by examining his favorite novel, the 1911 literary gem by Edward M. House, Philip Dru: Administrator: A Story of Tomorrow, 1920-1935. In fact, he liked House so much, he made him his top advisor on foreign affairs.
So what’s this colon-rich masterpiece about? It’s about this guy who stages an armed coup and makes himself dictator of the United States–for the country’s own good, of course. Rescues it from the bad guys. And then applies Science, glorious Science, to “cure bad thoughts” and make it, like, impossible for people to be bad anymore. Science, applied by Really Smart leaders with absolute power over our lives, is our salvation. Later on he conquers Mexico and rewrites their Constitution, too. And once they see how great it all turns out, everybody’s really happy.
Now do you see why I call leftid ideology stale, archaic, old hat, trite, cliche-ridden, done to death, moldy, obsolete, and antiquated? Wilson is one of those few old-time Democrats who’d fit right in today. In fact, he’d be indistinguishable from a modern-day globalist leftid. And we can’t say much for his taste in literature, either.
We can’t we get rid of these hoary, cobwebby old statist platitudes?
Because leftism is fruit produced by Original Sin. Only Jesus Christ can root it out.
And someday He will.

We don’t have dodo birds anymore because they were too stupid to survive . But we do have Daylight Savings Time, which is why I’m running late today and can never catch up. Of course the dodos were innocent, defenseless creatures who couldn’t help going extinct when humans came along and fundamentally transformed their environment. Daylight Savings Time, by contrast, is the purposeful creation of stupid and arrogant people.
Too bad we can’t trade in DST for the dodo.
God gave us perfectly serviceable days and nights, and the flop-eared knaves in government had to tinker with them. Actually, the days and nights are beyond their reach; so what they’re really tinkering with is… us! “Hey! Let’s take away an hour of their sleep and see what happens!”
Too bad we can’t trade in DST’s enablers and promoters for the dodos. I would defy any ten thousand dodos to do a tenth of the harm done by any single U.S. Senator.
Woodrow Wilson was a big fan of DST; in fact, he vetoed legislation to do away with it. Woodrow Wilson also said the purpose of education was to make a son as unlike his father as possible. What an ass.
They can’t speed up or slow down the movements of the sun and the earth, as decreed by God.
All they can do is foul up our schedules–and to what purpose, who knows?
