Is America Still a Serious Country?

RE :”So Pat is upset at the level of public interest this is getting? I wonder what he thinks about Justin Bieber then.”

This is the most serious national policy crisis in the last 50 years.

On the plus side its given MSNBC something to obsess over

I understand the outrage now that things are out in the open, but it's not like his opinions were unknown before the tapes came out.

We've come a long way as a country, right? I've heard that FDR, the hero of the demonrat party, wouldn't allow his picture to be taken with a black man and he put notorious KKK clansman Hugo Black on the Supreme Court.

In our time, the demonrats have installed a "new" form of prejudice in the White House whose fitness for office was/is based almost solely upon skin color and race. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

I'm far more afraid of the thought police and how private conversations are no longer private and can and will be used against you in the court of public opinion, than I am of a sports team owner, especially one who was set to receive a lifetime achievement award from the NAACP.

Not only my private conversations, but I also wonder how my votes from a decade or more ago can and will also be used against me, like with the now former Mozilla CEO. Are our thoughts next?

We are judged in this life and then Judged again for the next. But in this world, new sins invented almost daily, all our sins remembered, but none forgiven? This world is too insane for habitation. Enterprise, beam me outta here!
