We’re under attack. Again.
The O’Bomber is ratcheting up his barrage of babble, this time to levels of intensity exceeding "shock-and-awe" in the 2nd Gulf War. O’Babble’s jabber has me in shock. Stunned. Numb. So much that I was unable to think clearly enough to begin writing this post.
When the hour is darkest, miracles occur. I got an email from my friend C-Jay who must have sensed my distress. She sent me some potable quotes (as in “I’ll drink to that!”), and after reading them the feeling of doom began to lift:
"My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from too much government."
"The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not."
"To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is tyrannical."
Who authored these nuggets of wisdom? Thomas Jefferson.
Oof! Pretty clear where Jefferson and B.O. part company. Obama said at his inauguration he wanted to rebuild America. And when the Knucklehead-in-Chief said recently "I'm gonna kick some ass!" we now know he was aiming his foot at Jefferson.
