Confused
I am sooo confused!
I am so old I remember when blacks used to try to pass as white. George sent me the link.

So this married couple was on an African safari when they spotted an antelope trying to escape from a cheetah. The wife told the husband, “If the antelope survives this one, I’ll give you a blowjob every day for the rest of your life.
Thanks to Pres.
George sent me an email about what happened eight hundred years ago on June 15, 1215. The Magna Carta was signed by King John of England. What this momentous documanet said was that there was a rule of law and the King could not just make up stuff as he went along and rule by whim. It was the birth of democracy among the English speaking people. He also sent me an excellent article from the Wall Street Journal.
Eight hundred years ago next month, on a reedy stretch of riverbank in southern England, the most important bargain in the history of the human race was struck. I realize that’s a big claim, but in this case, only superlatives will do. As Lord Denning, the most celebrated modern British jurist put it, Magna Carta was “the greatest constitutional document of all time, the foundation of the freedom of the individual against the arbitrary authority of the despot.”
It was at Runnymede, on June 15, 1215, that the idea of the law standing above the government first took contractual form. King John accepted that he would no longer get to make the rules up as he went along. From that acceptance flowed, ultimately, all the rights and freedoms that we now take for granted: uncensored newspapers, security of property, equality before the law, habeas corpus, regular elections, sanctity of contract, jury trials.
Read the whole thing.
And now, we appear to be throwing away these freedoms as we have a ruler who changes laws as he sees fit and we have an opposition party filled with spineless men who allow him to do that for fear of being labeled “racist” or “obstructionist”. We also have a complicit media which stands by and does nothing while this is going on and is even in favor of this misuse of power because the media is essentially the propaganda arm of the ruler’s party. One morning these “journalists” will wake up and find out they are no longer free to write any dissenting opinion. They will have given up these freedoms.
What about the Supreme Court? What about it? They approved a massive power grab by the federal gummint in declaring Obummercare constitutional. And it was a “conservative” justice who cast the deciding vote. It makes me wonder exactly what the Dimocrats have on Roberts? As for this latest suit before the Court about Obummercare subsidies? No worry. I’m sure Roberts will rescue Obummercare on that as well. The Atlanta Urinal and Constipation had some sob stories of people getting Obummercare subsidies in Sunday’s paper. Boo hoo! Heartless Republicans. They want to take away their Obummercare. Yada. Yada. Yada. Blah. Blah. Blah.
As I wrote to Ron in an email last week, Obungler is showing a future president just how easy it could be to become a dictator just like Marius and Sulla showed Caesar. Caesar, by the way, even though he was of the nobility, was a member of the Populist Party. He was a champion of the lower classes. Sound familiar? The liberals progressives rat bastard commies have taken over the schools and the media. They have succeeded in corrupting organizations like the churches and the Boy Scouts All that’s left is the military and they are working on that. If they can get enough ass-kissing high ranking officers to go along who would stop a major power grab? The rank and file soldiers? Would they fire on citizens? AlphaDelta pointed out to me that they already did after WWI when veterans marched on Washington demanding their promised benefits.
The fact that we have someone as corrupt as Thunder Rodent Thighs running for president when she should be in jail is scary. The fact that we have women who think she is a feminist icon when she enabled her philandering husband and even worked to destroy the victims of his harassment show just how dumb the American female voter has become, not that the male voter is all that smarter than the female. More Americans could prolly tell you who the finalists are on American Idol rather than knowing the three branches of gummint or who their representive is in the House and their two senators. I still stand by my prediction that within the next thirty to fifty years we will become a socialist dictatorship. Obumbler is showing a future president just how easy it will be. Just keep the bread and circuses coming and don’t worry about the spineless members of the Stupid Party. They will continue to run losers like McRINO and Mittens. The New York Slimes (Motto: All the news that is fit to distort) and the rest of the LSM propaganda arm of the Dimocrat Party will take care of them. What a lot of these useful idiots don’t realize is that when the socialist dictatorship comes to pass they will be some of the first people purged. And the socialist billionaires will have their money confiscated for the good of the state. How can they be smart enough to become billionaires and so stupid as to not realize they’ll lose everything in the socialist utopia?
The Magna Carta had a good run. Our Constitution did as well. Alas, the end is near. Fortunately, I will prolly be dead when that happens and won’t be around to say, “T told you so.” I know a few people I would love to say that to.
Update: I knew we were done as a country when Jane Fonda was not arrested, tried for treason, convicted, and stood up against a wall and shot. I was in Viet Nam many times, off the coast when I was on the Comstock (LSD-19) and on the beach when I was on the Iredell County (LST-839). We even went about fifty miles up the Bassac River twice to supply station ships supporting PBRs. These were the boats on the rivers unlike Flipper’s swift boat which stayed on the coast. When he said he went up river to Cambodia he was lying through his teeth. My fellow sailors and the grunts I talked to all said the same thing, “Why don’t we take the gloves off and win this fucking war?” The Tet campaign was a disaster for the enemy, but we had Walter (the most trusted man in America) Cronkite tell everyone that the war was lost. It didn’t surprise me after he retired when it turned out that he was a liberal progressive socialist rat bastard commie. The last war that the LSM propaganda arm of the Dimocrat Party wanted us to win was WWII. That goes for Hollywood as well.
And now look! They just named a Navy ship after Gabby Giffords. WTF? She got shot by a lunatic and that’s a reason to name a ship after her?
We’re doomed!
