Sounds an awful lot like DC to me.
"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.
We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream.
It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same,
or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children
and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free."
President Ronald Reagan
And then along came Caesar.
“What kind of men are we?”
We are DEVO.
No wonder all liberals, democrats, Rinos and turncoats hated Ronaldus Maximus..
Oh! and the republican elite..
Why do you hate Jeremy Egerer?
Excellent.
Ya needed a strong stomach back then.. And a good ventilator mask.
I can only imagine the stench, a kingdom come apart
At its seams and sinews..
Ripped to shred by indifferent mobs
And vanquishing hordes of barbarians wearing black leather.
The good old days..
Some times nations fall to outside forces,,
Sometimes from by rotting from within..
In the end, we are all victims of history
As well as its students.
Maybe things will click better next time around. ;-)
Sadly, even our churches contribute to this pampering.
Well, the church I attend anyway.
We have young, able-bodied men living on our campus who are not required to do anything to earn their keep and they aren't pushed to go look for work or anything that might actually lead to the improvement of their situation.
Whenever I bring it up to anyone in leadership, I'm told that we're supposed to be our brothers' keeper and other such pap.
I bring up the Bible also says that if a man doesn't work he shouldn't eat or a man who doesn't provide for his family is a disgrace, but it falls on deaf ears.
Wow. Where did this come from? Thanks for letting me rant.
Much of what he said about the Roman Empire sure sounded familiar. But I think the problem is to a large extent orchestrated; to wit, my friend Abe will explain.
You initiated a policy to tolerate the Marxist-Alinsky radicals and let them rant; not only has it not ceased but was constantly augmented by decades of infiltration and indoctrination. You now have two Americas. In my opinion, it will not cease until a crisis shall have been reached and passed. A house divided against itself cannot stand. I believe this government cannot endure, permanently, half statist and half free; I do not expect the house to fall; but I do expect it will cease to be divided. It will become all one thing, or all the other.The question today is either the opponents of statism will arrest the further spread of it and place it on course of ultimate extinction, or its advocates will push it forward till it shall become permanent.
Have you no tendency to the latter condition?
Re: “Romans rioted partially because their citizens were unjustly overrun with usury as ours are currently by national and private bankers...”
That’s a fairly bizarre statement.
Since 2008, Americans have paid interest rates that are at historical lows.
In fact, about 15 of the last 20 years have had abnormally low interest rates.
And credit - of all types - is available to more Americans than ever before.
Metro - Sexual Men
You have one of the best taglines I’ve read....
Ping.
Metro - Sexual Whimps
They are the Moochers getting money for next to nothing. Meanwhile, the Savers are getting nothing, and many are being forced into the arms of Government Welfare while the Bankers get very rich living on free money. Who says the current Fascist Regime is failing in its policies?
“Metro - Sexual Whimps”
Don’t like Devo, eh? Great fun band! Tweaked everyone’s noses. Great sense of humor exposed in music.
Yea. Washington, BC.
and feeling that chance and not effort, happenstance and not heritage is the source of their comfort, they begin to imagine the current reality as their natural state,
