LOL! You make a reeeally good argument.
Is he dead?
You are correct! :)
(I saw the mistake just as I hit “Post.” Let’s face it, I’m just not as fast as I used to be.)
28th?! I’m 28th on your list?
;p
You were the 28th person to axe! No favoritism here!
You assume that people are rational and have the ability to reason. Very few have this trait.
Liberals have taught them to feel, not to think.
BTTT!
I bet you say that to all the girls.
Well done and to the point. But it really brings to mind that there really are two types of people - those who take personal responsibility, and those who don't. And since nothing stays still, everything keeps going in the direction it's pointed. So, after a few years or decades, someone actually has to write something like this - so incredibly obvious and simple, it sounds like "don't crap on the living room carpet" to conservatives, but hyperdimensional physics to liberals.
Over here!
Bump that. You know how I feel about more original content, Jim. It’s good for FR.
Hon, they already hooked me back up. :)
I’m trying for a once-every-other-week editorial schedule. All original; all posted here. If there are postings elsewhere on the internet, it will be a Excerpt-And-Point-To-FR sort of deal. :) And I intend to enforce my copyrights and force them here. :)
The “unwashed masses” are being manipulated by THAT class into parasitism which will overwhelm the host to the point of collapse. The enemies of freedom have been at this game for a long time and for more than just profit, For Power.
(although profit is a bennie too.)
Global terrorists like hyenas come in many colors but they will work as packs to take the turf: Communism, “Religious” Zealots, Moral Relativists, Eco-globalists, Race Baiters, Sex and Drug peddlers, (even RINO's) and of course, the media and popular culture, all play their part in the take down, which IS coming.
From the ashes they hope to rule over the reconstruction. One world with mediocrity for all and power for the elite. Shepards over sheep.

Glen Campbell wrote this song before he became Glen Campbell, Everly Brothers recorded it on their Roots album, and it is now nearly forgotten. (Roger Miller.) But it expresses the sentiment with which you finish your piece.
I like it (the song and the sentiment), while seeing how unrealistic, why, utopian, it is. After many years experience in computer technical support, both company internal and external, I can tell you that thinking more of others and less of me is not appreciated and not rewarded (except perhaps via self-satisfaction.) I happened to be unemployed, forcibly retired now, and am being advised to volunteer here and there, at inner city schools, or teaching children of prisoners to read, and I say, I can honestly tell you, ef-U!
Having said that, I don't recall a rollback of a welfare state in human history, and it ain't going to happen in France or here. I am further certain that the reaction to an attempted rollback in this country would be the same or even more violent than in France and Greece. Gimme mo foo stams!
Yeah, I saw that before I made the comment. I've written some original content for FR too and wanted Jim to know that I support that effort. It wasn't meant to prod action of his part. :)
Bro, we’ve talked, and if you cannot say you haven’t actually, truly given selflessness a chance, you don’t truly know how well it works. When I stop living for me and start living for others, is when I get what I need.
People see the attitude, they like it, and they reward it. This has been my experience. I don’t do it FOR that reward, of course, but it is there.
Turns out Jesus Christ was right all along. He says that the servant is the greatest among us.
action of his part = action on his part.
Ugh.
Add me Laz ......:o)
Good work !
Will do brother! Stay safe!
Hear, hear!

Did you add me? I asked very nicely in comment 128. Maybe I don’t rate...
