As FAQ\u2019s are supposedly commonly asked in some<\/em><\/strong> context, the Intramuralist has determined that it\u2019s not answers to \u201cthe common\u201d that I desire.\u00a0 My questions aren\u2019t common in any context; that\u2019s part of the problem.\u00a0 I wonder what would happen if they were asked…<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

To those who claim it\u2019s racist to vote against someone due to the color of their skin…<\/p>\n

Is it not equally racist to vote for<\/strong> someone due to the color of their skin?\u00a0 I mean, isn\u2019t the primary idea that skin color shouldn\u2019t matter, yet in both cases it clearly does?<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

To those who claim gay marriage erodes the institution of holy matrimony…<\/p>\n

Hasn\u2019t marriage been defiled for centuries \u2014 considering the societal acceptance of adultery, no-fault divorce, irreconcilable differences, etc.?\u00a0 I mean, isn\u2019t the primary idea that the earthly concept of marriage has long veered from what was historically presented as God\u2019s design?<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

To those who claim that we need to accept all people as they are…<\/p>\n

Are you accepting of the persons who don\u2019t believe we need to accept all people as they are?\u00a0 I mean, if not, aren\u2019t you contradicting your own argument?<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

To those who claim that \u201cfairness\u201d is a justification for economic policy…<\/p>\n

How do you wrestle with the fact that the full manifestation of economic fairness equates to socialism and then Marxism?\u00a0 I mean, are you comfortable with that reality \u2014 or do you feel government will always limit the extent of its control?<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

To Hollywood…<\/p>\n

Do you really believe you\u2019re in touch with the American values as to what is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, and admirable?\u00a0 I mean, if so, how does that impact your movie content \u2014 and for those of you who are often rude to persons holding contrary opinion, do you believe that\u2019s noble, too?<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

To those who believe George Zimmerman, the Neighborhood Watch shooter of Trayvon Martin, is innocent…<\/p>\n

Do you realize that reportedly, Trayvon Martin had only Skittles and iced tea in his possession? \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

To those who believe Trayvon Martin is innocent?<\/p>\n

Do you realize that reportedly, George Zimmerman had multiple injuries to his eyes, nose, and back of head?\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

And to those who believe that either<\/em><\/strong> Zimmerman or Martin is completely innocent?<\/p>\n

Do you realize that since none of us were there, we may never know exactly what happened?\u00a0 I mean, could you… would you… be ok with that?\u00a0 Are we as a public ok with not knowing all?<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

To Pres. Obama & Gov. Romney…<\/p>\n

What are you planning on doing during a 1st or 2nd term that you\u2019re not sharing publicly?\u00a0 I mean, what kind of rhetorical spin are you utilizing that\u2019s intended to make your desired policy more popular than it really is?<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

And our concluding, FAQ lightning round…<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Washington:\u00a0 why haven\u2019t you passed a budget in 3 years?<\/em><\/p>\n

Supreme Court:\u00a0 are you ever politically motivated?<\/em><\/p>\n

Pres. Obama:\u00a0 if VP Biden & Co. hadn\u2019t put pressure on you, when and what would you have said about same-sex marriage?<\/em><\/p>\n

Gov. Romney:\u00a0 how do you feel about gay marriage?<\/em><\/p>\n

John Edwards:\u00a0 what were you thinking?<\/em><\/p>\n

Ron Paul:\u00a0 will you ever stop running for president?<\/em><\/p>\n

Hillary:\u00a0 are you satisfied being Sec. of State?<\/em><\/p>\n

Greece\/California:\u00a0 did you really believe you could continually spend more that you took in without ever experiencing a negative consequence?<\/em><\/p>\n

U.S. law enforcement:\u00a0 why are you using drones for surveillance on American citizens?<\/em><\/p>\n

Mary Kennedy (estranged wife of RFK, Jr.):\u00a0 why did you kill yourself yesterday?<\/em><\/p>\n

Junior Seau:\u00a0 why did you kill yourself?<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Some questions will never be answered.\u00a0 Others are just far too uncommon.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Respectfully,<\/p>\n
