"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

We have had a few cracking hail storms up this way over the years, and I have never known one to shut down an oil drilling rig for more than the duration of the storm, and producing wells just keep going. I noticed that land is fairly flat, and have to wonder if it was good cropland for grain or hay.

IIRC the land around there was once rice fields and pasture.

IOW, food growing capability is being sacrificed for highly vulnerable (and questionable) 'energy infrastructure', when the environmental footprint of some more reliable energy forms is considerably smaller.

Growing rice and tending cattle is hard work! Collecting government checks is child's play.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

Goober is too busy at the moment opening a new off-shore account so he can hide the money he will be cashing in on when the new solar panels have to be bought and installed.

You didn't REALLY think that no one in his family was heavily invested in solar energy manufacturing,did you?

Mr. Little is referring to this:

Thanks, @Bigun. Seems like we're always having to swim against the tide. It's one thing to defeat the Dems, but it's downright sinister to have to run against the media and against disgruntled Republicans who threaten to take their ball and go home. Whatever victories we get should be celebrated to the max because they were hard fought.

It's not really worse at all. What's different is that much more of it has come to light now.

I actually do consider it to be worse. I don't remember ever taking so much "friendly fire." It's almost as visceral as those from the other party.

That's been around a long time, too.  McCain was in office for most of my political life, and he hated voters like me/us the whole time.  He never used the bile he heaped on conservatives against Democrats.
