Dictatorship of the Disabled, Part II
Moonbats seem to feel pretty pious behind the wheels of their Priuses. This should wipe their smug expressions away: hybrid cars have been deemed to discriminate against the blind.
At slower speeds, running solely on electric power, hybrids make so little noise that there's not much to prevent blind people from walking right in front of them.
The National Federation of the Blind is actually demanding that hybrids be made noisier. Maybe we should require that they be fitted with foghorns that blare continually in case there are any blind people around. But what if someone is both blind and deaf?
Here's a solution: ban all motorized vehicles, and command everyone to travel by tricycle (two-wheelers are dangerous and difficult for blind people to ride). Note that this will also curb carbon emissions.
But before the ban goes into effect, I need to find a blind person willing to step in front of a moving Prius. I can guarantee nothing more than minor bruises, and a 50–50 split on the loot when we sue Toyota.
On a tip from Bill.

You saw this quote, didn't you?
NFB President Marc Maurer said he received an e-mail from an environmentalist who suggested that the members of his group should be the first to drown when sea levels rise from global warming.

Some of us are old enough to have learnt stuff called "history".
From that, we know that once upon a time, when the newfangled "horseless carriages" were first scaring the bejeesus out of real horses and law abiding citizenry, there was a requirement that the automobile be preceded by a person on foot, and (at night) carrying a lantern.
Substitute "a bell" and we are back in hightech business.

Today marks a day where sense made sense.
I give you "Stewart Dimmock Day".
Pass around the cocktails. Remember, appropriate behaviour.
And make sure you nudge your favorite Lefty.

Your post is a little deceptive, the first problem is that there ARE NO MORE "former Slaveowning Confederates", they're all DEAD.
But anyway, the Southerner quoted in the artical said that if Alaska, Hawaii or Vermont secceeded, it would be OK. Who cares if we loose a few million Liberals? Lincoln was wrong; REAL ESTATE is not the union, the CONSTITUTION is! That is what the South has ALWAYS thought, even back in the 1830s to the 1850s when NEW ENGLAND was violating the US Constitution and threatening to SECCEED when they didn't get their way.
Read Daniel Webster's Capon Springs speach in which he announced that since New England refused to uphold their part of the Constitution, the SOUTH was under no obligation to uphold their part, thereby effectively desolving the union!
