Bubba, the Prophet, has this to say: All of us with a love of this great nation (no matter what political flag we fly) will know that the battle is totally lost when the incumbent skunks join forces to bs both Progressives and Tea Partiers into thinking that either side is going to be allowed any influence at all. As I have said many times in the past, even if we disagree about many things (mostly social issues that should be left at the door), we still have principles that guide us; and the two headed, slithering reptiles in Washington know not the meaning of that term. The battle is not between the leaders of the D's and R's but between those of us that give a damn about the future and those that would sell our grandchildren's lives and futures for Super Bowl tickets and golf outings.
See ya, Ken
At the risk of sounding sympathetic to some ideas that I am not at all sympathetic to, I have actually spoken to some Tea Party members (all I have to do is step out my door and raise my voice) and a high percentage are not at all like the powers that be in Washington portray them to be. And a great many of the Liberal Progressives are not as they are portrayed by the other side of the powers that be. I know evangelical Christians that wholeheartedly embrace interracial marriage but can not deal with the vulgarization of society as brought about by some Ultra Liberals who see nothing wrong with black teenage boys shouting MF at top of their lungs across a crowded shopping mall. I have a very good friend that makes no bones about being a total liberal atheist but has nothing to say at all about a person of faith. These are all
social issues and could be worked out as a society IF the Powers That Be did not constantly use them (and we fall for it every time) to divide and conquer us so that they can loot the national cookie jar to the Nth generation. We have to quit constantly falling for this bs and hand them all a pink slip and the only way to do that is to JOIN forces on issues on that actually will pull our national wagon out of the ditch. I have not much hope for that--The Powers That Be are far too skilled at dividing and conquering and we have our blinders epoxied to our heads.

Sorry RedDog. If you ever truly get a Banned from HuffPo list going without

Agreed! There is a vast amount of difference between a 3 year who has not learned better and a black/white hoodlum/thug that will never learn better and who is a cancer on society that needs cutting out. I have my own story. One night after supper at my in-laws, me, my ex and my oldest daughter (then about 3) were headed for our car. Warm, Spring Southern night. My curly haired, blonde little darling says "shhh, shhh, (at this point my Mother-in-law bends down to hear what the dear child has to say) If you listen real close, you can hear a frog fart, hee, hee, hee!" Grabbed her up and roared out of the drive way. I called the next day (knew that I would get the blame) my dear, now departed, father-in-law told me not to worry at all, that he had the best laugh he had since his own 6 kids were little and he would make it right with the mother-in-law.

Point well taken. But what person would preach civility and politeness and respect for others and then shout MF in public and not expect to be tarred with the hypocrisy brush? The black/white thug/hoodlums have no such moral frame of reference and understand only the swift and certain whack upside the head until they realize the error of their ways and are brought unto the understanding that some civil and polite folks just are not and shouldn't have to put up with such MF'ing bs in public as opposed to a private discussion. |
