Wow! Just watched the first two episodes of John Adams from the HBO miniseries. My, how far we have fallen. And how disappointed he would be at how willingly we have given up everything he and his compatriots fought, and were willing to die, for.
The acting was good, but the speeches were phenomenal. Culled from the history records. Now all we have is a shrub with a poor command of the English language and an inability to use it without sounding like an idiot. Every. Single. Time. He. Speaks.
If it was up to the current generations, we wouldn't be a Republic. Oops, my bad, we no longer are. I guess the truths are no longer self evident. Interesting how people are so adamant about protecting the Second Amendment and the other Amendments are just additions to an old piece of paper.
I'm reordering my Netflix queue so that I get the rest of the episodes as soon as possible.

I am still in shock over the capitulation by the Democrats to everything Bush wanted - and the silence of the presumptive Democratic leader while all this was going on.
ReplyDeleteYou were right. I was wrong. I want to admit that. I am embarrassed and ashamed that I allowed myself to be taken in. I am trying to sort through how I let it happen, and I'll post it as soon as I can.
You wanted to believe, that isn't a crime and it doesn't make you stupid.
