Brian Fitzpatrick over at Human Events calls The Dark Knight “pornography of violence.”Batman has also been compared to George W. Bush and Rudy Giuliani. You can decide on the latter, but the former claim is balderdash.  Batman tries to save the innocent in the film and is faced into grave moral choices. As for the violence claim, evil does not come in sunshine and lollipops. If we used Kirkpatrick’s arguments about violence in film, Patton and Saving Private Ryan would be unacceptable for displaying graphic images, regardless of their messages. I mean, if good must make tough choices when combating evil, we had better not show it. This movie is conservative because it rejects moral relativism of the Left and shows a character willing to take the burden of leadership on behalf of truth.

Interesting.

Rudy Giuliani is running this 90-second ad in Florida.

If Giuliani comes in third or worse, will he drop out before February 5? I think he stays in. After all, it’s only one more week to “Tsunami Tuesday.” Then he can drop out.

If the rumors are true, and Megan Szydlowski is elected as the next chair of the Illinois College Republicans, the Giuliani campaign will have a new high-profile supporter.

College Republicans president Megan Szydlowski said she too is a Giuliani fan.

I’ve followed him for a while, and I read his book back when he was still in New York. Right now, the country doesn’t need an ultra-conservative candidate.

”Giuliani for all intents and purposes has virtually no chance to win in Florida.”
