"Words had to change their ordinary meaning and to take that which was now given them. Reckless audacity came to be considered the courage of a loyal ally; prudent hesitation, specious cowardice; moderation was held to be a cloak for unmanliness; ability to see all sides of a question, inaptness to act on any. Frantic violence became the attribute of manliness" -Thucydides

| Wait, did they just equate Allen West to "my pretty?" |
Why would they hate James Carville because he's adorable and wants everyone to join the Cawktail Pahty.
ReplyDeleteI'm just getting around to watching Bill Clinton speak at the Democratic Convention.

Too bad George Bush didn't speak at the Republican Convention. I guess he was too busy.
I like this one a lot. It has everything.

ReplyDeleteRomney: Clinton did ‘elevate’ Democratic convention
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2928416/posts
Just for the record, I'd like to say that Clinton's speech was the best political speech I have seen in my life. And I am old.
We are all Americans. We are all in this together. Somehow, though, Freepers don't see it that way.
Lately I have been liking this guy more and more. Mad as a Hatter, he is. And yes, that does sound like Yoda talking.

"She just maybe right. This is what generations of indoctrination has done to our high school students, colleges, and universities. Government is now the 'new'community with tens of millions working for federal, state, and local governments and their unions, and the high percentage of single white women including widowed, divorced, separated, who have inseparably hitched their fortunes to government.
ReplyDeleteCouple this with hordes of gays and lesbians, the tribal vote of Muslims, Blacks, Hispanics, and Florida’s Jews, and you have an unbeatable coalition supported by billions of dollars of free mainstream media. And don’t forget the “learned” professions and the judiciary that aids and supports this travesty. To which we conservatives play our weakest nominee. Dole, McCain, and now Romney.
Let’s not forget that Bush won with a few hundred votes in Florida and a few thousand votes in Ohio against two villains-Gore and Kerry. Sadly, short of a miracle, the First Lady may be right. They not only have the 'audacity of hope' but the 'audacity of certainty'"

I like the use of "hordes". It seems so Medieval. The barbarians are at the gates. And then there is the use of the word "tribal". Hell, he even threw in Jews. How old school can you get?
I hope you're OK Ozy. Maybe just standing in line to see Last Ounce of Courage. I'm needing my Monday fix.
ReplyDeleteFor the next couple of weeks, I'll only have my phone to do Internets till 7pm ish.
