I hope she’s cute. She’s sure dumb.
“Check out the classic cartoons from the 1930s through the 1950s (originally for theatrical release before the newsreel and the main feature) and see this.”
I can kinda understand where the motivation for “no internet”and “no TV” comes from (though total bans are extreme), but what’s supposedly so bad about diapers?
Never mind college - they weren’t even taught that in high school or grammar school.
did he host? I just have missed that. He would be good. I liked the NY bartender he competed against. He was off the charts smart, quirky, and seemed to enjoy the camera.
This scenario of a Federal tyranny over the states has been upheld ever since and it's STILL wrong. We are 50 states of governments unto ourselves linked in a mutual agreement, not utterly dominated by a central power. Our Founders knew what follies ensue straying from the plan.
The quote is actually “Government of the elites, by the elites, for the elites”
He did.
I think they give it to The Big Bang Theory woman. Bah!
I’m a Republican. I’m going with Lincoln’s version of history. You can have your Dred Scott decision/Confederate/Marxist/CRT version of history.
The movie, “Quiz Show”, about this. Interesting.
“I wonder if any of them know what the Gettysburg Address is.”
They probably couldn’t answer the question, “Where was the Gettysburg Address given?”
Sounds more like it was SCTV’s Half-Wits.
Warning: You might learn something!
Lincoln’s strategy for ending slavery wasn’t a civil war. It was to prevent the spread of slavery to the territories. Eventually and peacefully, without the carnage of a civil war, so many boys being put into the grave, very few of them slaveowners, just military age males responding to the call of duty, and without a hundred years of Jim Crow and sectionalism.
Lincoln was born and raised in Kentucky and his wife was a southern sympathizer. He was a veteran (of the Blackhawk Wars). He and his wife lost one son (to disease) prior to the war, and another (also to disease) during the war. We Republicans think of him as the most human of our presidents and wonder if he would have been able to bind our nation’s wounds had he lived.
The letters of Union soldiers are real.
Life is really complicated—”history” is always a gross oversimplification—at best.
You could hear leftist radicals everywhere orgasming in satanic ecstacy( Every member of the weather underground leading the way ).
160 years and those are the bonafides of your Grand Old Party which has betrayed cultural warriors all my life ...63....and if you think GOPe owned conservatism ...you're as deceitful as Levin and Beck and Hannity
Trump changed everything....made all things new...thank God.. if we don’t give it back to your precious GOPe .....oh btw before I forget here's your meme
The mythology of Lincoln derives in part from his premature death. This allowed admirers to imagine almost anything. Sort of like Jack Kennedy and Princess Diana.
I agree with you regarding the failure of (almost all) Republicans to engage the other side in the culture war. Reagan and Trump were exceptions. But, as forceful as they were, Reagan was undermined and Trump was outright betrayed by others “in” the party.
Thanks in large part to Trump, we have a great opportunity to redefine the Republican Party as the party of the middle class and those in the lower class aspiring to the middle class, regardless of race or region of the country.
To paraphrase Lincoln, it is for us the living to dedicate ourselves to that great principle upon which our country was founded, that all men are created equal, and it is for us to ensure that government of the people, by the people and for the people shall not perish from the earth.
