Waxing on The Bizarro World

I remember a Seinfeld episode in which Jerry spoke of "Bizarro World." Since Seinfeld was such a big Superman fan, I guess it had something to do with that. Not being that much of a Superman fan or any other comic book all I know about "Bizarro World" is what I learned from Seinfeld. Apparently in "Bizarro World," up is down, good is bad, smart is dumb....etc. 

You know, the opposite of what common sense would tell you. 

And now, with increasing intensity, I am starting to feel like I actually live in some sort of "Bizarro World." 

Why? Well here are a few examples:

*We now call The War on Terror an "Overseas Contingency Operation" or something like that because we don't want to "offend" the same people who loudly proclaim "Death to America" and are actively plotting to destroy as many Americans as they can...yes let's be sure we don't offend them. They might not like us anymore.

*The President of the United States authorizes the release of "Top Secret" CIA documents pertaining to its operations to win this "Contingency." Maybe if we tell our enemies how we are trying to stop them from killing us, they will just think it is too easy and get bored.

*Our "Homeland Security" Secretary calls people who believe that unborn babies should not be murdered, "potential terroists." Also on the terroist watch list are those who believe in the freedom of speech and the right to bear arms and of course, Military Veterans.

*"Hate Speech" legislation is being pushed again. By silencing "Hate Speech" the legislation really means silencing Free Speech. You know the kind of speech that says that the Bible is still true and what the Bible has always said is sin, is still sin. In "Bizarro World," basically anybody who disagrees with the idealism and principles of Hollywood and Nancy Pelosi should be silenced.

*Our President bows to the King of an Islamic Republic, hangs out with dictators like Castro and Chavez, encourages Ahmadinejad and KimJong Ill, and covers the name of Jesus from view while he speaks at a Catholic University....because after all, I mean come on...think about who would be credible in the "Bizarro World!"

* The President talks of the need for "fiscal responsiblity" after signing a "stimulus" package (without reading it) that spends 800 billion dollars that we do not have. And remember before you question whether this is "Fiscal Responsibility," we are in the "Bizarro World."

*A Federal Lawmaker actually suggests that AIG Executives that received bonuses should consider committing suicide...oh yeah, our government knew about the bonuses when they gave AIG the billions of tax payer dollars...but again...remember where we are. In the Bizarro World, contracts and legislation (and the Constitution) mean about as much as...well they mean nothing at all!

* Some Americans take to the streets, holding "Tea Parties" to protest the lack of fiscal responsibility and major "news" anchors make sexually suggestive remarks about the people who care enough to exercise their free speech...because journalism in the "Bizarro World" is little more than far-left liberalism and the promotion of secular progressive humanism. Even though scripture says only a fool says there is no God, in the "Bizarro World" there is no God and only "red-necks" and the uneducated still believe in God and the principles of His word.

*A contestant in the Miss America Pageant is asked her opinion on gay marriage. "Should the rest of the nation follow Vermont in allowing gay marriage?" Her answer is that she believes that marriage is one man and one woman. Pretty simple...you know the same thing marriage has been for 5000 years...well in the "Bizarro World" that we now live in, this woman was called degrading names, lost the contest, and "enraged" others by her "offensive" answer.

*The President has recently nominated a federal judge who sought to bar prayers that mention Jesus Christ at the opening of each daily session of the Indiana House of Representatives, claiming people do not have a First Amendment right to use an official platform to express their own religious faith. But – and here’s where it gets good – praying in the name of Allah was perfectly fine...after all, it is the "Bizarro World!"

So if you ever wondered what "Bizarro World" was, and you wonder how I know, I quote a line from Seinfeld who introduced me to "Bizarro World," "I live and breathe my friend, I live and breathe."
