Family values

One of the salient characteristics of an Enneagram style is a perceptual bias along with patterned responses, a type of behavioral bias. An Eight will get loud, a Seven will get funny, a Nine will withdraw etc.

So for today's blog I think it only fair to let my readers know that I have a political bias. This bias is a family one; the quotation below was sent by a family member, approved by at least four other family members and is indicatory of both my family patterns and my Enneagram style. It is also indicatory of a background that includes reading books, so I have political persuasions not found on talk radio. As far as I can discern, talk radio here in Kansas does not include information found in books or articles with footnotes and complete sentences.

Did you know that the words "race car" spelled backwards still spells "race car"?
Did you know that "eat" is the only word that, if you take the 1st letter and move it to the last, spells its past tense, "ate"?
And if you rearrange the letters in "so-called tea party Republicans," and add just a few more letters, it spells: "Shut the fuck up you freeloading, progress-blocking, benefit grabbing, resource-sucking, violent, hypocritical assholes, and face the fact that you nearly wrecked the country under Bush."
Wow! How weird is that?

  1. Very funny.....if you have not yet watched Michael Moore's documentary, "Capitalism: A Love Story", you may find more to laugh about.
