The Conservative Muse: The Muse Is On Vacation!

Le Muse est en vacances en France;

see you in a couple of weeks!

Q and A with the Muse

Q: I notice that you have compared yourself to Homer, et al. Isn't this incredibly arrogant? Have you no shame?

Yes and no.

Q: Just who are you, anyway?

The Muse was born and raised a liberal Democrat, and actively practiced same until the Carter-to-Reagan years, which changed his political alignment to conservatism, with a libertarian flavor.

Q: What was it about these years that made you switch?

The first thing that attracted the Muse’s attention was the disparaging attitude of the press toward the new President, the whole “amiable dunce” routine, that clearly exposed the press’s liberal bias. Considering Reagan’s success versus Carter’s ineffectualness, the Muse doesn’t understand how any liberal who was alive and conscious during that time did not similarly switch parties.

Q: Don’t you think it’s presumptuous to refer to yourself in the third person?

Yes.

Q: Then why do you do it?

Because The Muse is actually a supra-natural force that speaks through the Owner of this website.

Q: Isn't a "Muse" typically a feminine concept?

See above answer.

Q: I notice that you refer to Michael Moore, in one of your poems, as “The Muse of the Left.” Why would you elevate someone whom you obviously do not admire to such exalted status?

The Muse would point out that Michael Moore’s “elevation” is strictly in the eyes of his leftist audience. However, it is true that the co-existence of The Conservative Muse and Michael Moore is a reflection of the ongoing struggle between Good and Evil in this world.

Q: Your poems refer to “We” instead of “I”. Is there actually more than one person creating these poems?

No, the Muse simply prefers to use the royal “We.”

Q: You seem to have a lot of bitterness toward liberals.

The Muse can’t help himself. When liberals stop doing and saying things that outrage the Muse, then maybe this bitterness will also cease.

Q: We take it you didn't vote for Obama; doesn't this make you a racist?

Apparently

Q: Why do you express your political opinions in poetry?

Because the Muse is a Muse of Poetry.

Q: And yet you are responding to this Q and A in prose.

Give the Muse a break, OK?
