This nation IS SPLIT...more than before. How and who did it?

This IS the Klintoon Legacy. His 'politics of personal destruction' created a rift that just keeps getting wider. That horrible man and a worse President created the atmosphere, the ability for him and his wrecking ball of an administration to lie with impunity, ruin people like Billy Dale and the media didn't do a thing about it.

We are a Nation divided now. Red v. Blue states.
No question about it.

Put that one up after my bedtime, Norm. Scary to see "Opus." Good it's not literal. Congratulations on 10,000; I've read quite a few, (Let me guess - 9500 on Freepathons and NASCAR? :)

Accurate observations. I have used the phrase, "turning of the times," from the Lord of the Rings books. Indeed, basic priciples and values are under attack from all sides. One can become discouraged with the rising tide of evil.

However, we have the means to expose these attacks and to educate each other of the truth. We owe it to the legacy of our forefathers and the future of our children.

Hey everyone, a big high five for Norm's 10,000 posts......I think I have a pitiful 73 and 14,000+ replies. [most of those 14,000 are my own I think] lol.

That was a great read Norm, it's nice to see a little personal background of our FReeper FRiends. Sounds like ya done good and thanks for your service in the Marines.

I particularly wanted to point out that the following three paragraphs which are sadly so true and extremely critical to this countries future right now.

" Yet, we are also encumbered by a millstone of a government that has in some if not most ways lost touch with what this nation originally was founded for and that is to nourish its people and help them to grow free and string, unafraid of the future and what lies ahead."

"FRankly, I don't like what I see today, a once proud nation is chastened by its allies and enemies alike, accused by many of its own citizens of not doing enough by some and doing too much by others."

This nation is divided like it hasn't been since the Civil War and in need of unity when it is under attack like never before.


I would also like to personally thank you for beginning the Nascar threads some 4 years ago and keeping them going AND keeping us all in line. THAT was a tough job at times, including threats to your life.

Funny how an opus brings the snakes out from under their rocks.

Nork,

I sure hope you decide to stay. I've only read about a quarter of your threads and THAT seemed like work.

I sure have appreciated you being the grand poohbah of the nascar threads.

You have a good way of being the leader, keeping everything in line and up to standardswithout being jerky about it.

I sure hope you decide to stick around, but if you choose otherwise, I wish you well in everything.

"Of late, I'm not sure why, but I get an uneasy feeling that something is afoot, ya see, I don't walk the same corridors of power that our elected officials do. I don't get spoonfed what I want to hear, I see and hear things I don't want to hear and believe and then have to come to my own terms with them.

Now, I see where a lot of folks only want to tell me what to think and how to act and who to vote for and not ask questions.

That disturbs me, to say the least.

Hence , this post....

When I see a 2 party system that seems to be going thru identity crises and can't seem to figure what or who they represent and actually embrace foreign law and leaders and their doctrines, it really ticks me off....

And when I see those who once fought for this country, now seek to surrender to a larger governing body or to a few 'special' folks, well, I won't say what I feel.

Anyway, let this be my own way of warning to All that seek to surrender our sovereignty or our way of life to any entity for any reason, don't expect me to support it."

Heckuva great post/Opus, Norm.

You're saying what NEEDS to be said.

YOU are a great patriot -- we AIN'T surrendering and you ain't either....

As others have encouraged me, remain, my friend (take a coffee break like me ;-)

You're needed as ONE MORE Paul Revere at FR -- and d@mn the Redcoats.

I just rousted the local human dictionary from bed. He mumbled that most Latin words ending in -us end -i in the nominative plural, but opus is one of several funny ones like genus: genera, opera. After a little arm-twisting, he agreed to waive his usual X denarii fee.

;-)

Hope you’re doing well and will reconsider.

Well you may have posted more than 10,000 threads, but you only have a little over 200 threads on the "links" section of your FR page.

Could you please bookmark the rest of yours there so we can find them easier?

Thanks...

:>)

I quit bookmarking stuff after about a year, there was just so much stuff, it unfortunately became unmanageable, much like our state of things in California. ;-)

I did get banned once , for about an hour.

it was ap's fault, by the way, seriesly.

they incorrectly identified info on a military plane crash into the black sea, someone saw it here and obviouilsy had an axe to grind with me and hit abuse claiming I did it with ill intent and on purpose.

as it turned out, somone else here also saw that initial error in the article that was quickly corrected on the ap wire, and I was back in no time.

Well yea, I imagine over 10,000 bookmarks would be quite unmanageable.

I was just trying to give you something to do while your were contemplating your opuioption.

It would probably take you years and at some stage (probably at about 8,934) crash FR...

BTW thanks for all your good posts about this Grate State!
