Vanity-Open Thread: Something you learned from this debacle.

Posted on 03/21/2010 4:02:49 PM PDT by C19fan

I will start this with:

Beltway pundits, especially so-called conservatives, are clueless. They have spent so much time in DC thinking all this stuff is a game that they could not recognize ideologues when it smacked them in the face.

Absolutely. It’ll certainly clean the cobwebs out of your head.

Deceit, treachery and the big lie are a winning strategy. Democrats play to win by any means in every arena. Republicans still don’t understand the enemy and want to play by the rules.

Thank you for mentioning this book. I think I saw the author on Beck several weeks ago and I kept trying to remember who he was so I could get the book. It sounded fascinating. I think really, people always assume REALLY bad stuff won’t happen to them, so they are blindsided. Lots of ostriches. Anyway, thanks, I’m going to order it now.

Right now I’m reading a book called “The Black Swan,”

There are three different ones listed on Amazon, who is the author?

What did I learn? NOTHING.

Just reaffirmed what I already knew. America is toast.

There are too many ignorant, selfish, dishonest, lying, cheating, immature, lazy people in our country and the numbers are getting worse. And they all vote.

We are going down in flames. There’s no turning it around. Globalism, socialism, marxism...here we come, ready or not.

The will of the people does not matter

Our Constitution does not matter

Our Republic is Dead...for real

What people are is fundamentally selfish. And most want their needs to be taken care of so they can focus on the fun stuff. Healthcare isn’t fun stuff. So they want YOU to pay for it.

It’s not a waste. Really. You were there. Those of us who couldn’t be there got just a little bit of comfort knowing some WERE there. God bless you for doing your part.

There is no such thing as a moderate democRAT, and the Catholic Church needs to excommunicate every single one of the rat B@ST@RDS.
