What a terrifically great post! Good find, Neverdem!
Also read his column from February 16, 2009: How Democracies Become Tyrannies
This post is a keeper. I’ll be reading it again and passing it on to non-freeper friends.
Aristotle says Obama is a shyster.
It is good, I agree.
Anyone who has studied history (including the Bible) understands why the decline of America is happening.
Victor Davis Hanson: Another Partisan Push for Another ‘Comprehensive Reform’? illegal immigration

Some noteworthy articles about politics, foreign or military affairs, IMHO, FReepmail me if you want on or off my list.
Thanks for the Ping.

The Gates, Buffets, Soros...? Sure. The poor things should continue to rule. Whatever.
It’s not about “the rich.” It’s about property rights. “The rich” (multi-billionaires)are out of touch. They hate us. They have their eyes and hearts in anti-American countries while depriving the rest of us of our “estates” here. When much of the middle class is deposed to squalor, the country will fall.
See Europe between the 1630s and 1900, and why so many Europeans came to America. Monarchy is as centralized and antithetical to freedom as communism.
We don’t need the kind of change preferred by the various conniving fascists. We need to move toward early American morality and government. We’ll only learn to move in that direction, if we’re forced to work for our lives.
Wow, what a great article. Thanks for posting!
The multi-billionaires used to be called the "Lords."
They haven't gone anywhere. Nothing has changed except their titles (although amongst themselves they've no doubt retained their presumed ranks of nobility).
They have absolute contempt for anyone "not of their class." They'd just as soon see the entire world dead and out of their way, except someone has to play peasant for them.
The only proper purpose for a true King was to keep these parasites in line - but over very long history, they got rid of that problem by learning to only appoint one of their own to the throne.
Thank you for that bit of true wisdom, in that not all about leadership has changed completely. Yes. This USA is my nation for the time being, but I should probably learn to be more patient and focus more again on the regular, guided reading of the oral histories of the only truly great government taught to mankind on Mt. Sinai. Maybe that would cool my impulsive ire and more. Thanks again.
From Good to Bad
Bad to Worse
Now Worse to Tragic!
I can Believe in!

There are no easy fixes - The founders understood that Our form of government works only for a moral people. The enemy understood this as well and has been degrading the moral underpinnings of this great nation for decades!!
The essentials of Aristotle's tenets and warnings are peppered throughout the written record of our Founders. Their Constitution is the zenith of Western political thought.
Aristotle's Politics is next on my "must read" list.
Thanks for the ping/post; link. I don’t recall reading Ed Kaitz before. Educational and very, very good.
