Well Welcome again ... just finished eight years myself.
I seem to vaguely recall a couple other monarchists after B-Chan went away
Well met, KC_Lion.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
I have toenails older than 25.
Here's a thought.
Getting news and analysis two or more days in advance of the MSM tends to marginalize the news itself. Talking to co-workers about the latest news they just heard, and you already knew that, you already got the details and the context and are way ahead of them. Great, awesome, you're a smart guy and nobody will discuss anything with you.
You scare them.
Now, come back to FR and your not "That Guy" you are here to catch up or stay on top.
Bringing up news that has been digested on FR before lends the topic to be relegated too the "Been There, Done That" status as it's importance is minimized in favor of the next item that keeps us ahead of the masses.
Just a thought.
You are a valuable addition here on FR my FRiend! Your energy is infectious! Congrats on 5 years!
Congratulations on you five year anniversary.
I’ve have sent my college aged daughter here for research and insight when she needed to write a paper on “Gun control”.
When she needs support for her position on constitutional issues that will be challenged in class, She finds it on FR.
I think it was Churchill that said “”If you’re not a liberal when you’re 25, you have no heart. If you’re not a conservative by the time you’re 35, you have no brain.”
What should I make of my little girl who has been a hard core conservative since she could speak ?
She was just born smart!
She was just born smart!

I’m very thankful.
There is something to be said about how some people “just get it” and how others seem to either struggle or don’t have the interest for greater understanding.
Our culture sadly promotes the lack of interest.
Some time ago I asked my daughter “What does it take to change a persons worldview”, she fired back in an instant “Crisis”.
I believe the progressives of today are cognitively using government support as a cushion to keep individuals from experiencing the type of crisis that would change their worldview.
Happy FReepB-Day ;^)
Shalom!

Congratulations KC_Lion! Now you can start saying stuff like “FR was never like this in the old days.” Sometimes it’s even true... ;-)
