Almost 17 years ago, being a musician on the road, not being very politically astute or involved, I learned about what a liberal really was and stood for.
I was in Little Rock for a New Year's Eve party playing a gig at the Holiday Inn, and met quite a few locals, among them were people who had the goods on their then governor, Slick Willy. They claimed that this drug using murdering governor could end up in the White House someday. I exclaimed, "Yeah, right." One of the them was a relative to Kevin Ives, one of the teenagers that was murdered because of stumbling onto a drug drop operation near the Mena airport, who were seen viewing the operation and run down by state police and taken away.
A few days later Kevin and his friend's gruesome bodies were found on rural railroad tracks, and they were also shot in the head. The local coroner ruled their deaths as 'Died of natural causes'. The third boy, a cousin to one of the other two, was murdered and thrown in a dumpster.
Kevin's mother asked their governor to look into the murders, he promised 'we'll get to the bottom of this, I assure you'. He never got back to her on the matter. Six more friends and relatives stormed into the governor's office a few months later and raised hell about it to Slick. Three to four weeks later all six complaintants were also eventually found murdered in separate incidents.
Since this reply is already long-winded, and since many freepers have this story in their archives or have heard it before, I'll just say that my experience with the liberal mindset of say anything, do anything, no matter what it takes in order to remain in power is what they are truly to the core about. To the death, or ours!
I've coined this phrase here at FR some 7 or 8 years ago when I joined, but I will reiterate it with all my passion that I believe - "they are a cancerous tumor growing on the ass of society that MUST be surgically removed before the body (society) is too sick to recover, and dies."
I am wondering at this point in our history if we as conservatives along with our elected officials have the guts and fortitude to be the surgeons to successfully complete the operation to save the patient (society).
Sorry for the rant. You re-awakened my passion on this subject.
