First of all, it’s Housman, not Houseman. There are few people I cannot out-weenie before I even get my zipper down.

Oops.

I guess it’s not “A Shropeshire Lad,” then?

No, but if you read it as “A Gropeshire Lad”, it definitely changes the interpretation.

I’m actually a huge Housman fan, though more for his scholarship even than his poetry. My wife and I used his translation of Ode 4.7 of Horace in our wedding ceremony. Housman was absolutely right. It is the most beautiful poem of antiquity.

Manly? The A.E. stood for Anatomically Enormous.

He spelled it HousMAN.

So does it follow that conservative women are manlier as well?

Depends. The traditional female gender roles that conservatives fight for keep them submissive and dependent, so no on that count. On the other hand, there are some badass country girls that could rip your dick off. I don’t think it’s as clear cut.

I was just mulling over how studly Ted Haggard is… was, I guess. Who would not prefer him to George Clooney?

Wow. This has to be the most circle-jerking thread I’ve ever seen on the Dope. I can’t believe it’s even up for debate that conservatives are stronger, braver, handier, more capable, and more dependable than liberals. I thought that this was pretty well understood, along with the fact that liberals need conservatives to survive, but not vice versa.

“If Barack Obama becomes the president again in November I will either be dead or in jail by this time next year.”

“We need to ride into that battlefield and chop their heads off in November.”

“In an unauthorized entry, armed like they are right now, invading our country, I’d like to shoot ‘em dead.”

Glenn Beck. Ted Nugent. Todd Akin. Richard Mourdock. Mark Foley. Dan T Cathy. David Green. Sarah Palin. Mitt Romney. Rick Santorum. Fox News. Donald Trump. Marcus and Michelle Bachmann…which of this bunch is your favorite Hero/Spokesperson, **Chessic Sense**?

I will admit that I love Free For All.  
And Wango Tango.  
And The Nuge’s version of Baby Please Don’t Go.  
And Wang, Dang, Sweet Poontang.

And I love how he’s become the shrill, maniacal, unkempt Vagabond King of the pro gun movement. So yeah, I guess I love him in my own way.
