No society can tolerate this for long. The arsonists will not burn down society; the society will awaken and banish the arsonists.
s we get into high summer, there must be a very large number of Americans now actively considering whether the country is going mad.
The leading newspaper in the nations capital has accused the president of plumbing new depths of depravity in a perfectly unexceptionable and soaringly eloquent speech at Mount Rushmore last Friday. Praising the American revolutionary ideal that all men are created equal and its reaffirmation by Abraham Lincoln in the Civil War that brought about the abolition of slavery somehow made Donald Trump dark and divisive. The president deplored academic and national media self-hate and espoused the highest objectives identified and pursued by every admired American leader from Washington and Franklin to Martin Luther King and Ronald Reagan.
As the violent crime rate skyrocketed in New York City 10 days ago, the City Council voted to reduce the police budget by $1 billion. Meanwhile, Chicago celebrated the July 4 weekend with 87 people injured and 17 killed by gunfire, including two children, but the citys mayor rebuked the police chief when he suggested there is room for improvement in city governance.
NeverTrumpers like Mitt Romney, who walked in the Black Lives Matter parade last month, express solidarity with the group even when it affirms that it does not accept that all lives matter and its New York leader, Hawk Newsome, announced on national television, if this country doesnt give us what we want, then we will burn down this system and replace it. All right?

A great article by Conrad Black. And how many ways can Mitt Romney suck?
“And how many ways can Mitt Romney suck?’
A googolplex.
Progressive idiots (but I repeat myself) will think that’s the place where they can buy their latest thesis.
Sorry but given the fact that Utah has given the nation Mike Lee and Mitt Romney, have developed significant reservations about that state.
The guy even looks a little like "Drooler Joe"
A good one... A farce that will not last.
Conrad black did the best interview I ever heard about President Trump and I’ll be darned if I remember who did the interview. He told the story about how Trump enlisted the stray cats of New York to clean out the Commodore hotel project.
The madness will continue until Hillary emerges as the candidate.
Then, on cue, peace will sweep the land under the Great Uniter.
She’s not channeling Eleanor Roosevelt, but someone with a mustache.

Nearly everyone we talk to.

The article’s title is exquisite.
I might have used lunacy instead of idiocy, but not too bad as is.

Well, part of the country anyway. The part that respects the Constitution & our God. It would be interesting to know exactly what percentage has split off.
I hope this is true. But the riots and violence, and the stupidity of political leaders, have persisted longer than should be necessary for society to awaken. Perhaps the patient is comatose.
I wish I could feel more certain of this. As I look around and see/hear what many people are doing, and the lack of any sane response/reaction to it, it is hard to be optimistic.
