I just wanted to alert you that your opportunity to spend seven luxurious days in the eastern Caribbean (Jan. 6-13) with WorldNetDaily’s Joseph Farah, Elizabeth Farah, David Kupelian and other wingnut celebrity guests — like G. Gordon Liddy — is limited. Only five cabins are available on this cruise to political nowhere; it’s theme is “Taking America Back.”

While at sea you will have plenty of time to take in moderated education sessions and Q&A with the best and brightest of the right as you commisserate on how to save the country from godless heathens, Islamofascists and homosexualists.

Indeed, America faces twin challenges – one from within and one from without. The external challenge is from radical Islam, whose rebirth in the last 28 years has plunged the world into a renewal of the conflict that has defined history for the last 1,300 years.

The internal challenge, just as serious if not more so, is a cultural conflict over worldviews with the vestige of the Christian culture that shaped American history under siege from ultra-secularism, multiculturalism and moral relativism. Add to that an upcoming presidential and congressional election that threatens to bring with it nothing short of a revolution in the American political landscape.

The big question: Is America doomed, is there a way to reverse course? Or can America emerge triumphant, again, as it has so often throughout its history?

For a mere $640 (plux taxes, gratuities and air fare), you can enjoy floating at sea with the political bottom feeders.
Luxurious living is found in every detail of this Holland America cruise, from the soft caress of a personal bathrobe to fine chocolates on your pillow at night. Staterooms filled with all manner of sophisticated amenities that will beckon you to retreat away from the hustle and bustle of your daily schedule.
Just imagine listening to WND staff writer Jerome Corsi, author of “The Late Great USA,” WND Jerusalem bureau chief Aaron Klein, author of “Schmoozing With Terrorists,” and the energizing, uplifting musings of WND executive news editor Joe Kovacs, author of “Shocked by the Bible.”

I know your mouse wants to click over and grab one of those last cabins left…

    It is SO not fair that the cheapest cabin for Sea Socks ‘08 costs $300 more than the Cruise to Nowhere.

    Of course, learning to knit socks is much more valuable than listening to a bunch of conservative blowhards.

    Ooohh. A cruise on the SS Handbasket! I hope that it doesn’t conflict with the Precious Moments cruise, and that we might even get to watch some ecotourists drown while we stand by, don’t waste our life boats, and judge them!

    Where do I sign up?


  3. “Ooohh. A cruise on the SS Handbasket!”

    My guess is the ship is registered in Iraq, right?…


  4. Ms Kate

    On second thought, I’m not sure I’d like to share a boat with Liddy - he likes to play with lighters.

    Are we Taking America Back through all 1300 years of history that have passed since it was ideal? Or merely the 28 years since Jimmy Carter was in the White House? I’m confused.

    If it’s the first, I’m all in. Always wanted to explore pre-Columbian Americas. If it’s the 70s, I’m only going if MsKate is sharing my cabin…Precious Moments indeed.

    Taking it back from who, exactly? The conservative Republican administration in the White House? The conservative-packed judiciary? The conservative obstructionist rubber-stamp Congress?

    The declining power of teachers in schools? The increased deference to religious dogma in even public institutions? The conservative narratives that suffuse the mainstream media?

    It’s not at all clear who these idiots think the country needs to be taken back from, since as far as I can see the reins of power are completely in the hands of people exactly like them. Gotta keep fighting Goldstein, I guess.


  7. Ever read Johann Hari’s article ‘Ship Of Fools’? It’s about the similar National Review cruise; Hari spent the trip trying to blend in with the wingnuts without going crazy. Might be best to read over it before buying your ticket…

    Norovirus! Norovirus! Norovirus!


  9. Frank online expression of my first thoughts after learning of the existence of this cruise would probably result in a joint FBI/CSIS probe in my activities.

    So I’ll stick to just saying something witty that might pass as an irony-ladden joke.


  10. micheyd

    Gay hookups! Gay hookups! Gay hookups!


  11. A personal bathrobe? Please, you’ll just spoil me for when I have to go home and share again.


  12. *gah* that sounds like some new circle of hell.


  13. chibi

    WOW, they actually admit to lumping multiculturalism in with that evil moral relativism?


  14. Anon

    Am I… am I evil, for hoping for a Gilliganesque outcome for this whole affair?


  15. Ellie

    And judging by the behavior of those already booked, they passed the piss-drinking stage long ago. (It has a nautical flair but it’s also the barking mad’s comestible of choice.)


  16. Thene beat me to it–this really does sound like what the folks at Sadly, No! called “The Hate Boat”. I do hope someone buys a ticket and writes a similar article on this cruise.


  17. AtomicFruitbat

    If I were ever to go on such cruise, and any other topic except economics (possibly) were being discussed, I’d need opiates to survive. Lots, lots, and lots of opiates.

    Whenever I read WND, as an independent ex-Repbulican I think to myself, “Who are these people, what rock did they crawl out from under, and what the hell did they do to my former party?”

    Thene beat me to it–this really does sound like what the folks at Sadly, No! called “The Hate Boat”

    I prefer, “Loathe Boat”.

    “Taking America Back?”

    I guess it’s not too early to try making up for their having had absolute power for six years and pissing it away.

    I’m thinking the Bush presidency is going to be the Highlander 2 of Republican politics. The fans were jazzed about it until they saw it, and now they don’t like to admit it exists.


  19. Ms. Kate

    Taking America (from the) Back more like …

    As for Nororvirus, well, that would just cause the cruise to be full of bellyaching and flying shit everywhere! That would be awful … um … wait … like wingnuts would notice any difference?

    A little World Party for ya:

    We’re setting sail
    To the place on the map from which no one has ever returned
    Torn by the promise of the joker and the fool
    By the light of the crosses that bur-urn
    Torn by the promise of the women and the lace
    And the gold and the cotton and pearls
    It’s the place where they keep all the darkness you meet
    You sail away from the light of the world

    Listen baby - you will pay tomorrow
    You’re gonna pay tomorrow-ow-ow
    You will pay tomorrow-ow-ow-ow-wow-ow-ow-ow-ow-ow

    Save me, save me from tomor-orrow
    I don’t want to sail with this ship of foo-ools, no no
    Oh-oh-oh, save me, save me from tomor-orrow
    I don’t want to sail with this ship of foo-ools, no no
    I want to run and hide
    Right now - ri-ight now-ow yeah-eah-eah

    Avarice and greed are gonna drive you over the endless sea
    They will leave you-ou drifting in the shallows
    Drowning in the oceans of history-y-y-y
    Travellin’ the world, you’re in search of no good
    But I’m sure you’re philosophic like I knew you would
    Using all the good people for your gallant slaves
    As your little boat struggles through the the warning waves

    But you will pay, you will pay tomorrow
    You’re gonna pay tomorrow-ow-ow
    You gonna pay tomorrow-ow-ow-ow-wow-ow-ow-ow-ow-ow

    Save me-ee, save me from tomor-orrow
    I don’t want to sail with this ship of foo-ools, no no no no
    Oh-oh-oh, save me-ee, save me from tomor-orrow
    I don’t want to sail with this ship of foo-ools, no no no no

    Where’s it comin’ fro-om or where’s it goin’ to?
    It’s just a - it’s just a ship of foo-oo-oo-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ools


  21. atheist

    Yeah, that’s and excellent question- take America back from what?


  22. Sophist, FCD

    I hope all the wingnuts enjoy their cruise on the B-Ark…um I mean the H.M.S. Happy Time Jolly Boat.


  23. MirabileDictu

    @ thene,

    Just read the “ship of fools” article–egad. It was more repulsive than I had imagined. Are these guys for real?


  24. tyro

    Can I get a ticket and then freak everyone out by waving my bra at them from the bow?
