@ All of you
What made the "Greatest Generation" the greatest generation?
What gave you the ability to sit here now and talk such stupid shit?
How many of you "knew" someone from that generation?
How many of you actually had the chance to hear what they had to say?
Not many talked of what they saw, did, or endured.
But one thing was absolutey clear.
Babyfaced mama boys. Depression era people. Rich or poor. Shit happened to people that needed to happen AT THAT TIME.
They all united to overcome.
Ya'll sit here and debate stupid shit. Principles yada yada yada
People can claim it was some Holy Crusade.
It was the worst human beings could inflict on other human beings. Evil won.
And then evil disappeared from the "greatest generation".
You know why?
They didn't compromise. They didn't back down from their principles. They didn't back down from their faith.
You know how I know this?
Because of this stupid effing "debate".
Nah Just kidding. I know this because I Live this FU88888 life.
@bigheadfred, again, I'm not suggesting a back-off from principles. I think you may have been the only one who got that. I am saying we need to pare down our list of priorities to the bare necessities for now, and start making some progress in restoring the Republic. And, again, IMHO, Roy Moore's political career ain't it.
The Republic is on life support right now. We can stand around and argue who will get the china and who will get the grandfather clock, but it might be a better idea to grab the O
2 and the defibrillator.
As for the five top priorities, I wouldn't want to make that decision by myself, but if I am appointed Queen For The Day (step aside
@QueenCatofAragon) I think I might start with (and remember this is a rough, rough initial draft):
1. an investigation into and prosecution of federal employees and elected officials in the Roscom uranium, unsecured servers, illegal email usage, and attempts to overturn the legitimate results of the last federal election.
2. push to have Cruz's term limits law passed
3. form a group of conservatives to respond quickly and effectively as public information officers to better communicate conservative ideals and spread truth in a very untruthful media environment.
4. establish a task force to study, report on, publicize and help enforce voter laws that ensure one vote per citizen.
5. elimination of the income tax.
6. establish some simple, basic ideals that we can agree to pursue.
7. I would like to work on abortion issues immediately, but I don't think that is possible until we regain some traction. Put this into the second tier to be worked on.
8. insist that Congress pass a law that they (congresscritters) have to follow all the laws that ordinary citizens follow. Cut out the benies - barbershop, Airforce transportation, etc. Make it much less fiscally rewarding to be a public servant.
That's it for tonight.
