Bad Governance
Obama’s first year. Tasers. Pennsylvania senators. Plus more.
(Page 3 of 3)
Despite the 50,000+ American lives sacrificed to keep them free, despite open access to the American market — which lifted them from one of the poorest nations in 1960 to one of the wealthiest today— there are continual anti-American demonstrations in South Korea.
History shows that America’s least-insufferable allies are those
who need access to the pockets of the U.S. taxpayer and weapons
of the U.S. military, and S. Korea now thinks it doesn’t. Prove
it.

RESTORING DECENCY
Re: The Prowler’s Obama’s
Foursome:
Morally agnostic, mendacious, megalomaniacal, Marxist ideologue Barack H. Obama has so sullied the Office of the Presidency with his Democrat-Chicago-Machine’s cesspool politics and character that it’ll take some industrial-strength cleanser to remove Obama’s stains and restore some level of decency.
He and his similarly unprincipled thugocrats are
embarrassments.

FORCING THE MASSES
Re: Robert M. Goldberg’s Cohn
Heads:
“…once the benighted masses are forced to live under the new order, they will awake to celebrate the benefits they failed to perceive over the past two years of health care debate”
Isn’t this sort of like the rapist using the defense: “Yeah I raped her. But once we were in to it she loved it.”
Yeah … That’s the ticket!
—David Constans

Dr. Jones, if you have ever had a university sophomore in your home, you know exactly why the King of the World believes his duty is to lecture you and not to listen to you. He is trapped in 1968 when the media was dominated by self-righteous sophomores who believed they held the keys to the world if only someone would give them a platform, a microphone, their own teevee program and -- oh yeah -- funding. Unfortunately, that is the model King Rat has adopted.
Unfortunately for him, The Sixties Are Over.

But the movement collapsed when conscription was ended. Vietnam, as the Confederacy, was a lost cause.
