Some things just make a man wonder.
The other day on another blog, some of us were hanging out throwing around ideas. The problem is that sometimes, ignorant Leftinistra pop in and try all so hard to show how intelligent they are but really prove to the rest of us just how stupid they really are. When presented with indisputable facts, they go into some kind of morphed trance. They really, really, really HATE our President, George Bush. And it matters NOT if he has done any good or not. Now, I could not stomach the thought of William Clinton being the President but I did NOT hate the man. Respect. That is a term that the Leftinistra cannot quite fathom. I am NOT saying that GWB is all top-notch or anything because he isn’t. He IS however, a man of conviction and character and has a backbone. Why else would he “go against the grain” and not govern from some dumb socialist opinion poll generated by some leftist hack?
Well, as it turns out, a friend came on the blog and posted a quote and he said that he wasn’t sure if he got it right or not. I remembered the quote from someplace and quickly located it and I will post here in due time. It sure did wake me up though. It was like a Big Hand came out from under my laptop balled up a fist and smacked me right upside the mouth.
This friend of mine was in the Special Forces and has extensive knowledge of war history and has a very firm grasp on what we as Americans are facing in today’s world climate. I respect his views and quite frankly, some things he says rings a bell inside my head and I soon realize that I had more or less squashed those thoughts because I did not want to admit to myself certain beliefs.
Well, all that has changed. I used to be one of those Silent Majority types that just sat around shaking my head in disgust at the goings on in Congress and politics in general. The Silent Majority. You know who you are. Just in case you don’t, visit this site and see if you don’t need to change your under garments. Wake the hell up!! http://www.usawakeup.org/ It is an interesting place. Oh. Wait. Turn up the sound and pay attention.
Here is that quote I mentioned earlier: “Pacifism is a shifty doctrine under which a man accepts the benefits of the social group without being willing to pay—and claims a halo for his dishonesty.” WOW!! This is something that Robert Heinlein had said and it is so true. Don’t know who he is? Too bad. Google the name and figure it out. Stop waiting for someone to spoon feed you all the time. Alas, I digress.
The above quote was slammed home the more I thought about it. On this other blog we were all on, one of the true intellectually void moonbats said something like, “My freedom didn’t cost me a thing”. What a moron. And he believes in entitlements and thinks the government owes the fool something. Did I say he was a moron already?
Think about that quote while watching the video at the above listed web site. Take some coffee. You will be there a while unless of course you are the cowardly type.
