America Unburdened by What Has Been
American Thinker ^ | 23 Aug, 2023 | Phil D'Agostino

What they mean is to unburden themselves from the limits and confines of the Constitution and to burden us instead with their dream of a New Utopia right here and right now.

Every farmer, and most country people, know the insidious problem posed by rodents. The most common of these pesky rodents are, of course, mice and rats. And, because their nature is to hide and invade by night, they create a need for more devious means of eradication than mere trapping. The solution is to feed them a poison they won’t fear eating, so others will also ingest it and die.

Blood thinners are, by far, the most commonly used for this purpose. They usually require multiple feedings and do their work over a period of several days, allowing others to be comfortable with the environment and taking the bait for themselves. It all works very well, but how? Over a period of time, the blood is rendered unburdened by what it was meant to do. The platelets and other coagulants are similarly unburdened by their original purpose and the rodent dies without knowing why or what hit it.

To unburden someone or something of what “has been” is to unburden it from the lessons learned or the discoveries made that cumulatively create what we might call knowledge or wisdom. To “re-imagine” something is to reject it as it is, and find a replacement which may very well be inferior. But the current group of people who make up the Biden-Harris administration find “what has been” America, a burden. They look at the United States as a blank canvas as one may roller-paint the Mona Lisa with ceiling white and start over.

The political philosophies of Engels, Marx, and Hegel are the rat poison of a country.

Why pick on mice and rats? These EVIL individuals are poison to this republic. They deceive, destroy, deface, rob, rape, mutilate and murder. They are not human beings.

Democrats have gone further and dispensed with the platform defining policies. The Democrat party is a cult of personality. People are expected to vote for the identity rather than policy.

One of the best examples of a great writer adding value to the needs of human discourse. Well done.

“remember friends, conservatives seek agreement while liberals demand compliance” L.Star. as true today as it has been throughout history. the ONLY recent change for these soulless beings is they don’t hide it anymore.

This “unburdened” BS is just that...BS. The feral leftist nitwits want no accountability for their ongoing and many crimes. These anti-social degenerates want to be “unburdened” of their responsibility for destroying civilization. Hopefully, justice will soon find them.

Imagine this(twilight zone voice)
A nominee who has never received one vote, claiming she can fix the high inflation. border crisis, unaffordable housing…. On day one as if she hasn’t been VP for the last almost 4 years

That she can fix all the problems “they(read Trump) created.

Yes we are in trouble

“America Unburdened by What Has Been”

They also want to “unburden” us of the memory of their past failures so they can try them again.

A primary and necessary objective of Marxism is to sever the population from any and all sources of understanding the world except The Party. All Norms Are Evil. All resisting culture must be annihilated. Cultural Revolution. It must be this way, because Marxist ideology cannot withstand scrutiny of any kind. Long story short, it’s all bull$#!+, and they know it.

My wallet and savings account sure has been unburdened by what has been with this clown show. Business is still crap and for the first time in a long time I have had to raid my savings to keep afloat. Things are bad. Really bad. And every one of my customers are all worried. None of my former customers have recovered and are down to minimum crews with minimum projects just to keep the lights on. When this marxist is installed it will be time to liquidate everything and just get odd jobs until I die. Her plans will destroy my small fab machine shop.
