Karma

[likwid]

I don't see anything funny or "karmatic" about being hit by a drunk driver doing 60.

Have you ever been privy to it? If so, I'd really like to know whats so amusing.

if you are a legislator who supports drivers licenses, healthcare and other government services and benefits, in-state college tuition etc...etc...for people who are Massachusettes and in this country illegally..... and then an unlicensed drunken illegal alien in a mexican costume driving an uninsured car... slams into you.....with the driver belligerently proclaiming that he knows that you and the State Police can't really do much about it...that's pretty damn funny....ironic.....and I believe...reaping what you've sown...

I guess if you are a progressive... you could claim that the only reason that he drinks is because he's been forced to live in the shadows in this horrribly repressive country and the new Arizona law must have sent him off on a bender...

KARMATIC

Sounds exceedingly karmatic. Of course, progressives see nuanced, reflective, deflective and shifting meaning in a negative that might apply to one of their own. It is too simplistic, in this case, to see the obvious. One must search for the truest insights, which, of course, link any negativity to the backward vision of conservatism. In this case, seeing it as karma is just plain mean spirited.
