Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

A shocking report!

NYT reports that the ABA has a Leftist bias! Gee, who would have thought so?


Perhaps that is what the NYT views as news. It has been a well-known fact for 20 years. Just one more non-profit org that was hijacked by the Lefties who didn't want to be tested by real jobs, years ago.

Which is why the NYT, Sun Times, Post Intelligencer (love that one) have all been hitting the tank.

Newspapers deserve to be "going away." They haven't practiced journalism in a generation.

Someone from the ABA called me a month or two ago, trying to get me make a contribution or buy a membership or something. I explained that I was not a fan of the ABA's political positions. She was astonished -- the ABA has no political bent! What in the world was I talking about? The ABA is very balanced in its views! Tell me another, I said, and good luck EVER getting a penny out of me. I think she was honestly puzzled. I'm just amazed that the NYT was capable of noticing what's been obvious to everyone else for a long time.

I resigned from the ABA when it took its first political position supporting abortion.

Can't say I've ever missed it. You spend hundreds of dollars just to get a silly little magazine every month.
