I am sorely tempted to ignore my conscience and hope that physical harm befalls that Son of a Bitch. Best of all worlds. Bush could then call him a 'Martyr to Peace', throwing all the liberals into total confusion while he unleashed the Israelis and sent in the B-52s seeking massive retribution. And he would be a whole lot easier to tolerate as a dead martyr than a live hemorrhoid

Did you hear my alarm, too, or just know that my sense of funkle-busting duty would draw me here now?

Are you proposing "White Flight"? It's been done in many cities. Perhaps the suburbs should have been called "refugee camps."

The son of the pilot who crashed into the Pirelli building in Milan believes his father committed suicide. Marco Fasulo told La Repubblica newspaper that his father was having serious financial problems.
Italian officials say it was probably an accident. Interior Minister Claudio Scajola said: "Initial reports point to an accident." People who insist it was an accident are people who are afraid of the impact of the truth on the economy. Let's all just take Enron and Arthur Anderson into consideration and accept that the stock market is a lie, and then learn to handle the truth about other matters, too, instead of believing the "official lie" about everything all the time. This "accident" was clearly an intentional suicide.

I just helped Ratty install it.

By blending, not by separating, is how diversity becomes strength. Natural rejection of the stupid and cruel and unfit is part of blending, as is attraction to the smart, fun and strong.

Nope. That just changes demographics, and leaves even MORE of the country under Anti-American control. Just ask Detroit about that. And it still doesn't prevent the Collectivists from enslaving you.
To make the point that I was wondering about, a significant amount of Pilgrims would need to completely leave the country. And in so doing, the idea WOULD spread.
Swervie, I have been meaning to read Atlas Shrugged, but I haven't read it yet.
Of course, if white conservatives WERE to start leaving here, and this nation took a nose-dive, I am SURE it would somehow be the fault of the people who had the foresight to get out while the getting out is good. We would be trying to escape Collectivists, but you know, that they would never blame themselves for their follies.

Can you explain that remark??

Back from chauffeur duty.
There are four kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, statistics and corporate earnings reports.

In the case of the settlement of America the Pilgrims had a destination that was even better (potentially) than the homes they left. This is beautiful, productive, vast land - not an ocean, not a desolate moon. They believed that God had led them here and would bless their efforts with success and bounty. They encountered hostility and stormy weather and starvation, but the survivors persevered because they had faith coupled with "no choice." Later, their descendents would face the same trials at Valley Forge.
Do you think a new settlement by this generation would survive as long as there was an option to leave if the going got tough? Would people DIE (and witness the deaths of their wives and mothers) rather than give up the dream? Will God place such a dream in our hearts? There is no instant gratification in such a movement.
To: gratefulwharffratt
Man, now I'm thinking. Why did you start that?
To: ValerieUSA
There are four kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, statistics and corporate earnings reports.
So, does that mean that what you REALLY meant to say was: "Some companies will lie to protect themselves and their valuation IN the stock market??"
Because I really fail to see how the whole market 'is a lie.'
To: gratefulwharffratt
What is our place as freedom-loving Americans in this changing world? The course of civilization could pivot with any generation - do we need to make a sharp turn now? If that is our duty in this place and time, then flight might be a temptation away from our purpose.
America is reclaimable, but not until we are ready to sacrifice ourselves for future generations, just as the founders had done. There will be no instant gratification, and knowledge of victory may be by faith rather than as witnesses in our lifetime.
However, if we dare to see it, knowledge of defeat is already clear as we look ahead on our present course.
Despair is in the status quo - hope lies elsewhere. Who can plot the path back to liberty and honor? Do we retrace the previous steps? Do we rely on the old dream, or is there another one for us? Once the vision is captured, how do we help make it real? Where is our Valley Forge to hone the steely determination that will end liberal tyranny?
Give me liberty or give me death
To: gratefulwharffratt
The market as a whole is a lie (bluff, deception, renamed debt, hidden asset, tax dodge, fraud, proxy, bonus, projected earnings - all a game played by rule-bending or breaking) individual companies may be true. Show me one.
