This recent passage plus the morphing gif was discovered in a recently found book claimed to be written by Nostradamus.
Leaders of different eras of
a future global empire
More Dissimilar yet the same,
More Similar Than Different.
One speaks, stands from the left, black
as the evening sky.
His counterpart speaks from the right,
The color of snow, cold as ice, brilliant, bright, white.
Both speak with a the tongue of the serpent,
Who could hardly speak any differently,yet strangely
their actions, motives make them perfect dopplegangers
in their entwined fates.
I am tired of this comparison and slamming of Nixon. Nixon was a great president (minus China and EPA). His only crime was loyalty to a few errant supporters.
Nobody died due to Watergate.
You make a very good point. I agree the comparison does go too far but the analogy is being used to make a point about
Obama’s hoped for fate.
Yeah he may not have been the greatest but he certainly wasn’t among the worst.
Add to his list of sins price controls and he made the decision to finance the welfare state rather than fight it. Nixon ultimately led us to where we are today with massive entitlements and deficit spending gone over the cliff.
Another footnote is that he killed human space exploration in favor of entitlements. Had that not been done, humanity might own the solar system and the resulting economic boom would have been bigger than that brought by computing.
Instead he gave us a permanent welfare class to be a reliable democratic base. He may have doomed this nation in doing so.
And then there was Nixon’s EPA.
Source?
This one does not smell right.
What solar system are you from? Last I read entitlements were a legislative initiative, and to give you a history lesson The Senate and House were in democratic control during Nixon's entire presidency. I thought Freepers were smarter than this. I guess you are an exception.
I saw the image, thought it had comedic value and posted it without giving it the due process it deserved. I happen to have liked, admired President Nixon and now see myself having acted too impulsively. Giving a second chance I would not have posted it. My message to the Moderator is, if you feel it is inappropriate, disrespectful, by all means delete the post.
Thank you.
The difference is that Nixon was hated by most on the left including the very same types today who idolize Obama -- "The Rules for Spoiled Brats" crowd.
It's time to acknowledge the Clintons, Obama, and all others of the 1960s Marxist/Alinsky campus psycho spoiled brats and their ideological issue as a putrid class all their own.
Yes, many of our issues began under Nixon. The Department of Education, EPA, and more. Nixon has really good at foreign policy. Beyond that, he did us few favors.
At the very least, he has to get behind Obama, Carter, and LBJ. Probably Woodrow Wilson too.
Nixon was a great president minus the cover up thing and the PEA.
Nixon started this craziness with China, we’d be better off it THEY had come to us. Not vice versa. Now that Commie Regime will never die.
I like the photo, but I think this is made up out of whole cloth.
Some have tried to connect Nostradamus and Obama and Nixon. You can find those references.
None of the “quote” of Nostradamus shows on any search engine.
While we are at it, I would say Abraham Lincoln for being a dictator.
Ho wdo you leave FDR out of that gorup?
The value in it is that its the only thing the democrats can understand.
