On Freedom [Peter Robinson]
From the “Legend of the Grand Inquisitor,” Dostoyevsky’s story-within-a-story in The Brothers Karamazov:
Know then [said the Grand Inquisitor to the figure of Christ, who had mysteriously appeared to him], that now, and only now, Thy people feel fully sure and satisfied of their freedom; and that only since they have themselves and of their own free will delivered that freedom unto our hands by placing it submissively at our feet….
Wouldst Thou go into the world empty-handed? Wouldst Thou venture thither with Thy vague and undefined promise of freedom, which men, dull and unruly as they are by nature, are unable so much as to understand, which they avoid and fear?—for never was there anything more unbearable to the human race than personal freedom…! I repeat to Thee, man has no greater anxiety in life than to find someone to whom he can make over that gift of freedom with which the unfortunate creature is born….
They will have no secrets from us. It will rest with us to permit them to live with their wives and concubines, or to forbid them, to have children or remain childless, either way depending on the degree of their obedience to us; and they will submit most joyfully to us the most agonizing secrets of their souls—all, all will they lay down at our feet, and we will authorize and remit them all in Thy name, and they will believe us and accept our mediation with rapture, as it will deliver them from their greatest anxiety and torture—that of having to decide freely for themselves.

They will be forever angry because the quality STINKS.
Yo! Obama! unemployment is at 15%!
Given how highly addictive Vicodin is and that you had a kidney infection and the pain was only in the 2 category sounds like they were overkill with that prescription, those class 3 drugs are way over prescribed.
Don't will one anything then.
Seriously, as with Jews, you never know when you'll come across a politically wise one.
They all voted NO.

FOX has strangely been taken over. Rush Limbaugh and sites like townhall.com are probably the only places you can get the straight dope now (outside of here).
“Heard someone on Fox say that we will have to have a national sales tax to pay for all of this.”
Yeah, I know, Everyday they come up with a new spin on how this crap will be paid for. Didn’t they just get through saying that it would be paid for by “cuts in wasteful spending?”
Obama yammering about private sector job creation.... Yeesh
Never saw it comming that this would be a domestic policy. "Those that are not with us, are indeed against us." President Bush was more right than he knew at the time.
I can not believe that Geraldo is still on FNC they have given him the entire night.
I would think the market has already factored in the fear.
Who?
I know what you mean though. I belong to other websites, and most of the people there talk about who is going to be voted off The Biggest Loser. They have no clue as to what this all means.
So many liberals I know are probably ecstatic about this monstrosity being passed. Wait till they have to pay through the nose for all this “free health care.”
Well that’s it. See yall on the battle lines tomorrow.
Good night!

Derek Hough is a dancer on the Dancing with the stars.
I had a couple of heart surgeries over a 2-month period. I was in a lot of pain, and took 2 Vicodin every 4 hours.
I asked my doc what the chances were I would get addicted to it and he said it would take more than a couple of months for that to happen.
I did not become addicted to it.
Try to graft stuff onto Jesus Christ and this is what you get.
