Wikipedia:"May you live in interesting times", often referred to as the Chinese curse, is reputed to be the English translation of an ancient Chinese proverb and curse, although it may have originated among the English themselves. It is reported that it was the first of three curses of increasing severity, the other two being:

"May you come to the attention of those in authority" (sometimes rendered "May the government be aware of you"). This is sometimes quoted as "May you come to the attention of powerful people." (Alternately, "important people".) "May you find what you are looking for." This is sometimes quoted as "May your wishes be granted."

I wonder if times are interesting enough for all the stuff happening to us is considered a curse.

At the beginning when the bloom was starting to get off the rose, we heard all kinds of stuff about Obama's less than perfect qualifications for OOO (Oval Office Occupant). He wasn't the Administrator type, Never could cut down a 9-5 job. More. Now they're goonna start saying , he wasn't much of a math student.

Obama lied his way to the top and he’ll lie to stay on top.

:...all the stuff happening to us is considered a curse....”

Nothing is just “happening” to us.

It’s being DONE to us, deliberately, fully planned out, and with much malice aforethought.

This sh*t doesn’t just happen. The commie/socialist left and their liberal allies have been salivating over this moment for a long, long time.
