The Progressive Nightmare

SEE HERE Adrienne has commented several times on the brambles so I trucked on over to her site to see what was going on and garnered this post and the last one scarfing the YouTube she'd displayed. Conservatives have to stick together since we are under attack by the mob of liberal progressives who think that their world will be made better by stealing from the productive until they have collapsed the system. Then we will experience the truth of Maggie's dictum: "Socialism is great until you run out of other people's money."

  1. Thank you, kind sir. Bill Whittle surprised us as a very powerful speaker. This is what we do around here instead of watching some cruddy Hollywood movie. The only problem is I end up with popcorn on my office floor.

    If you don't have a copy of Mark Steyn's book, I highly recommend it. Excellent

  2. Bill Whittle impressed me quite a lot Adrienne and I ordered a copy of Steyn's book. We have to get the young people however. They have been brainwashed and don't even realize it. They'll be slaves by the time they get it if something isn't done.

  3. I have no idea of how to do that because the schools have them brainwashed and really, really dumb. I taught religious ed to the 7th - 12th graders for almost 10 years and an average 12th grader's education could be considered at about a 3rd grade level.

    Except for a very, very few they could not write a complete sentence, couldn't spell or punctuate, didn't know how to take notes, and as we've discussed before, could not write in cursive. Even their printing was atrocious

    When I taught 4th grade at a private Catholic school my kids were doing adult outlines, writing fiction, diagramming sentences at the 6th grade level, and doing beginning algebra.

    And the latest is something I will be posting on soon. I've identified close to 20 girls attending our local high school who have intentionally become pregnant. These girls range from 15 - 17 years old. That certainly doesn't bode well for the future of this country. Sorry for going on and on...

  4. Years ago we took in a Birthright girl and discovered that she was pregnant because it would qualify her for aid and she could move out of her house. Her sister, slightly older, had had several children because the check got larger. One can only imagine how limited the opportunities are for children who are raised in this environment are likely to be. The system needs to be reformed because we are rapidly creating a dependency culture that will destroy the country. It's been going on at least since Johnson's "War on Poverty."
