Rome about the time of Nero.
Do 'you' want your son or daughter marrying one?
There was no federal assistance (welfare).
No Federal Reserve.
No popular election of Senators.
Give me 1910. It was a much better time. And very, very different from today.
Another factor is that the US had vast expanses of land to be developed. This was a safety valve. People moved there and by their own initiative could excel. Same thing with Australia for England. Today, there’s too much government and too little opportunity for the individual to cut his own path.
I do. I want it completely stigmatized so that a homosexual feels deep shame and seeks the help that is available and needed.
I want my government to stop pretending, because bad things happen when governments pretend:
Governments pretended that black people aren't people.
Governments pretended that Jewish people aren't people.
Governments pretend that preborn people aren't people.
And now, governments are pretending that homosexuality is normal and the problems of that, like the problems of other pretensions, will never end until the pretending ends.
Barone is a fool and a sucker.
He has bought the lie that homosexuality is normal, healthy and desirable. While it is in fact the opposite of all three.
America today resembles the time of czar Nicholas II with the current iteration of Rasputin, Valerie Jarrett, the de facto dictator of government policy, in charge of most administration actions.
They “handled the challenges” by electing Woodrow Wilson.
I’m not liking the comparison at all.
WW was elected by a minority of voters, only because the majority of Americans split between Taft and Teddy R. That's what Mitt wants to repeat, and that is why he must be stopped by any legal means necessary.
For every ‘similarity’ America now has with 1910, there are probably 100,000 stark differences.
A popular weekly dime-novel periodical of the day back then went by the title “Work and Win.” That gives the first clue about some of the differences.
1912 - Teddy Roosevelt and the Bull Moose Party
2016 - Willard “Mitt” Romney and the Bull Sh*t Party
What a waste of time and words. Just another piece of garbage.
We do a disservice to the truth by not naming it as such.
"...No one today wants to go back to legally mandated and violently enforced racial segregation. ..."
I'd settle for minorities behaving according to normal, mainstream values, but demanding that would be rayciss.
The vast majority of unconstitutional legislation now a part of the U.S. Code and CFR would disappear. We'd become instantly a freer country, and soon a much more prosperous one.
Bull Moose Party? A.k.a. the Progressive Party?

I was a kid during the last part of the '30s and I equate now to then - jobs were tight, hundreds of people lining up for a few jobs, the employer was top dog, the economy was trying to recover. Interest rates on savings were low, but not as ridiculous as now. One major difference was the deflation then compared to the inflation now. Deja Vu all over again.
My long-deceased grandparents were preparing to enter the work force in 1910. Grandma left school after getting her eighth grade diploma when she was thirteen. She cleaned houses to help support her younger brothers and sisters. Grandpa went into the Navy as soon as he was of age to enlist. The two married when he finished his service which included WW I service.
Poll parents, "Do you want your son to take it from behind?" I bet libs wouldn't like the results.
