At the close of the Constitutional Convention in 1787, Dr. James McHenry, a Maryland delegate, followed Benjamin Franklin from Independence Hall. He recorded a question asked by a lady, directed at Dr. Franklin.

The lady asked, "Well Doctor, what have we got? A republic or a monarchy?"

"A republic," replied Dr. Franklin, "if you can keep it."

IN DEFENSE OF MINORITIES!

"The smallest minority on earth is the individual. Those who deny individual rights cannot claim to be defenders of minorities." - Ayn Rand

The absolute credibility of the Nobel Peace Prize,

The unimpeachable source of all global warming,

The ability to manipulate numbers and statistics,

The ego to believe that people swallow your lies.


"Through clever and constant application of propaganda, people can be made to see paradise as hell, and also the other way around, to consider the most wretched sort of life as paradise." (Adolf Hitler)

Spin masters. Isn't spinning another word for lying?

I wonder what the percentage is of the people who believe this crap to the people who do not. Only the next election will tell.

I'm not sure I realized how true it is about teaching people and making them believe anything - until I voiced incredulity about global warming to my college aged daughter. She was aghast that I would question it - like only nutcases didn't believe global warming was happening and that it was caused by human beings. I feel like a bad parent not realizing the indoctrination taking place in our schools these days.

People who call themselves "liberal" have made a mockery of the word.

There is no creature clinging more tightly to orthodoxy and completely besotted with dogma which shall not be questioned, that a "liberal."

Janie Lynn: Don't beat yourself up too much. It's you against a universe quacks, charlatans, and their politically correct minions all marching in lockstep.

You have hit upon a good point though: Parents, teach your children well.
