Carl Gordon did not bother to credit his source or put quotations. Should we assume Carl Gordon is really Joe Biden (or Barack cum Bill Ayers?)(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_myth_of_sisyphus) Just so everyone knows much of what Carl Gordon wrote in his post, I found them on the wikipedia page for The Myth of Sisyphus (by Camus).

Nothing like a "progressive" to look at history and say "our way is better, even though it has NEVER WORKED, IT WILL THIS TIME, BECAUSE I AM HERE". You may inset the rapture of a Chris Matthews for Obama in place of "because I am here", but generally it's just self-centered narcissism that drives these people to think they really understand the world, and conservative/libertarians do not.

Exceptional writing. The sentence must mean you've received lots of rejection letters. Try a vanity publisher. “Things (what things?) have taken (tense) a decidedly (unnecessary) weird bent (cliche, hackneyed expression) conceits and falsehoods (both?) foisted (sic) by the uninformed”.

I'm editing my novel right now and this will come in handy. Things have taken a decidedly weird bent as I struggle against conceits and falsehoods foisted by the uninformed, and on top of that, and I can’t get anybody interested in thoroughbred racing at Hollywodd Park. Faced with a divorce of reality and ideas courtesy of FOX, Rush, Hannity, etc., I attempt to unify the two not only to make a convenient target, but to further understanding of the incomprehensible, I often use a variety of Hegel's concepts in conjunction with a nearby convenient Louisville Slugger upside the cranium of obstinate dittoheads. I’ll let you know how successful I was after I post bail. Hey, thanks for the tip! I’m editing my novel right now and this will come in handy.

And with just enough "elitist" pseudo-intellectual rhetoric to satisfy all the rats scampering o'er the rails of your sinking ship in attempts to disassociate from your fellow losers. And of course the mis-directed animosity at me simply because you can't stand both the finality of defeat and the repudiation of your hollow and defective "principles". Could it be that you believe that the 'reason' and 'logic' of bourgeois capitalist society that has led people into war, has obviously failed like everything else, and with that failure, an explosive epiphany of reactive angst and ire has been directed at the very values foisted upon the unsuspecting and ignorant, in turn, cause you to depict all that is absurd and ultimately flawed, rejecting any even mere pretense of morals or ethical value. Or, as some would stipulate, an expressed rejection of that ideology in the form of a personal attack that appears to reject logic and embrace chaos and irrationality. With these days consisting of mind-deadeningly 24-7 news cycles and instant microwavable breakfast tart with 11 different flavors of pink cheese flavored shit, it’s certainly refreshing to behold something comically fall apart under the weight of it's own horseshit, the term "conservative" ultimately historically referred to as the sickest, most paralyzing and most destructive thing that has ever originated from the brain of man. An insane spectacle of collective homicide, but with nice marketing potential. A perfect anathema to Thomas Kincade and his kaleidoscopic abortions. I would like to say in the future, when historians refer to your silly gibberish, a phenomenon bursting forth in the midst of the Bush economic and moral crisis, a monster, yet ironically a savior, which would lay waste to everything in its path. A systematic painter of destruction and demoralization...In the end nothing but a loving act of sacrilege. Intersting.
