Bump your #474. A lot of folks don't seem to understand the consequences of their own ideas.

No generation can be accountable for acts that occur before or after their own day. What bothers me is the seeming lack of historical conciousness which the elites of America display today, or have displayed for generations, really.

The pervading 'progressive' orthodoxy is essentially a-historical, claiming as it does that mankind can stop the impulse of history, by, say, creating the U.N. ;^)

That this is fatuous nonsense goes without saying on a conservative web-site, but the FACT that no Establishment voices have been uttering the straight goods on these and many other pressing matters FOR YEARS legitimizes Buchanan's platform, good and bad.

And that is not good. :*(
