movietone news...
if tv cameras had been there, we would have lost that war...
sounds a little like that humphrey bogart movie..
but it was strawberries.
Truman didnt mess around.. it was awful, but Japan hit first.. and awakened a sleeping giant...
The left would have a fit today ... there is no will to fight nor to just do what is right.
I share a complete lack of sympathy for just about everyone. My whole give-a-damn is busted.
I feel for the children without a choice but I also fear a lot of them because they are destined to be just like their worthless parents. I have learned that there is a lot of nature as well as nurture in how we become. Apples seldom fall from the tree and they contain the same DNA as the branches they came from.
I did not walk up hill in the snow twice a day but I remember when the closest McDonalds was in Kansas City, 350 miles away. At least so far as I was concerned. That made it special. I too remember when we seldom ate out and that made that special as well. There was one phone in the house, one car, one of almost all things we needed and no more but things were good.
Virtue signaling by these rube ceos or anyone else is as revolting to me as lying. Both are fake.
The thing is, you and I are yesterday’s mail. There is a new generation in charge and their agenda is equality, environment and some other things we don’t care much about. They are all woke and self-righteous. They also consider us the enemy who made all the problems they think they face and in reality it was their grand and great grandparents who did it. We just let it be and kept working and saving and blindly, faithfully voting.
You are correct...for me it does not make a whole lot of difference. But I have this 7 yr old little grandson.. I’ve been gifted to be with him since he was born.. a few days a week. He isn’t just a handsome little boy... he’s a sweetheart... and he appreciates me more than I deserve. He is gifted...high IQ.. and likes to learn.
I’d walk over hot coals for this boy.. he does not deserve the world they are fixing to fix up for our kids.. If anyone ever cared.. I do.. I have other grandkids also.. who deserve a life ..a good life.
We come to the place where we almost think about bringing children into the world that is not fit... and I refer to from conception...not aborting..
I think teaching right and wrong... plus knowing God is the ultimate judge and there is that higher power.. than a dem party..
BTW.. do you know how much Christian schools cost? a LOT!
My lack of sympathy is that all I can do will do no good and that my sympathies to contribute to the support of the “unfortunate” isn’t. The are mostly unfortunate because of their own bad choices and they need to suffer the consequences of those to ever have any incentive to change themselves. Giving to them just enables them to do more of the same things that hurt all of us.
Home schooling doesn’t cost much at all. I can’t think of a better teacher than a grand parent.
