Jill Carroll on NPR: Audio of a Sixties Fan
A reader sent me this audio link to Jill Carroll's pronouncements as a caller ("Jill from Ann Arbor") to NPR ("National Palestinian Radio"), glorifying the Sixties. Frankly, we're far more concerned by her statements about America, the Bible, Israel, and the War in Iraq. But still, it's interesting.
Carroll's call begins at about 15 minutes, 8 seconds in and ends at about 17:48. She claimed that before the Sixties, "unless you were white, male, straight, and had some money" (are those the Jill Carroll enemies?), you didn't have freedom. She believes "the main goal" and end result "of the Sixties was freedom for everyone."
Really? Silly us, we thought it was about strung-out, pachouli-infused hippies, Black Panthers killing cops, pulling out of Vietnam and spitting in the face of our troops, anti-War protesters, the Weathermen bombers, free love and sexually transmitted diseases, feminism and the breakdown of the family, bra burning, children in single mother households, and children of divorce.
Yup, that's what freedom's all about.

If everything I reae is correct, I don't understand how her love for Islam is consistant with her great love of freedom from the 60's. I don't think Islam is into free love and open sex. Mrs. Cleaver and Donna Reed look like feminist radicals compared to a typical female Moslem. They were allowed to talk and show their face in public.
THAT IS THE HYPOCRISY AND ABSURDITY OF ALL THESE LEFTIES AND RADICALS. THEY HATE FASCISM, BUT REVERE ISLAMO-FASCISM. THEY HATE RELIGION, IF IT IS CHRISTIANITY OR JUDAISM, BUT REVERE AND ROMANTICIZE ISLAM. THEY LOVE FEMINISM AND CASUAL SEX, BUT HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH THE WAY ISLAM TREATS WOMEN, ETC. LIKE I SAID, THEY ARE HYPOCRITES, BIG-TIME.

The 60s were about whatever we say they were about. They were about tons and tons of slutty women putting out at every party, and only AIDS ended that; grass by the ton; LSD by the can; choosing a completely different way of dressing; and always always telling everyone near and far that our parents were total assholes and knew nothing. They were also about moving to the edge of dam near everything; dodging the draft so others died in our places; overthrowing the government; and above all listening to a new music.

I bet Jilly thinks the people of Cuba, China, North Korea, Iran, etc., are free.

Jill’s comments about the Bible...well Jill…don’t criticize what YOU have FAILED to understand!
FYI Jill - The Bible is ONE of the ways God has chosen to reveal Himself to inquiring and open minds…and obviously not to CLOSED MINDS and CLOSED HEARTS!!
The FALLOUT Jill of the wonderful “sixties” freedom movement you admire so much was FINALLY, after everything else…that silent HOLOCAUST…ABORTION!
YES, North America’s quiet, polite…hidden MURDERS!
…Fortunately people of religious faith don’t usually have this type of blood on their hands, but amongst the PAGANS and LIBERALS this TYPE of MURDER is a significant form of birth control, not just an alternative.
NO WONDER the LIBERALS don’t react negatively to the ISLAMIC FUNDAMENTALIST “Hate and Murder” machine! LIBERALS are ACTUALLY, FAR, FAR, WORSE than Islamic fundamentalists are…and ACTUALLY HAVE more blood on their hands! What’s the ABORTION count now…50 MILLION that have perished in America alone!!?
The purpose of freedom WAS NEVER to be freedom alone, or anarchy, but the pursuit of righteousness, or virtue as Pope John Paul II identified in Veritatis Splendour~
I am also reminded of MASADA, the film.
Eleazar Ben Yair, leader of the Jewish Zealots, expounds to the Romans about the stages of drunkenness. He finishes with the fourth stage of drunkenness and concludes with the image of a monkey swinging from tree limb to tree limb, screaming, “its head UNTROUBLED by the TRUTH.”
That’s about where the LIBERALS are today…they are INSANE…DRUNK with their pursuit of freedom, excluding all else…SWINGING, SCREAMING their heads untroubled by truth of the “Last Things”…and ESPECIALLY that inconvenient truth that ABORTION is MURDER.
‘Course that is what the FINALITY of HELL is for…the unrepentant…and that blood atonement which lasts FOREVER because…wait LIBERAL…there is also JUSTICE in the grand scheme of things!
And THAT TOO must be pursued, and satisfied~

ADDITION Correction: The purpose of freedom WAS NEVER to be freedom alone, or anarchy, OR the allowance of MURDER, but the pursuit of righteousness, or virtue as Pope John Paul II identified in Veritatis Splendour~
