A phrase used a lot in connection with dem governors.
They're ALLOWING us our freedoms and rights again?
What are we?
Children? Serfs? Slaves?
Should we be groveling at their feet in grateful subservience?
Screw them. They don't *allow* or not *allow* me to do anything. They don't own me and they are not my mommy.
They are elected representatives, not elected overlords.
Nope. Your rights are gone forevermore.In their mercy, in their goodness of heart, in their benevolence they are granting their subjects if they continue to lick their boots in the approved servile manner the privilege to do certain things. And for this, they should be commended. And worshiped,and adored.And the phrase, "Oh king/queen live forever" is a required, upon penalty of death, greeting.
