Ya Gotta Know When to Fold 'em!

"The Survival of Civilization
now depends on the departure of the key players
and the arrival of a few gifted amateurs"*

It's time. More than likely, past time.
No more internet. Time to disconnect.
Time for peace and quiet, short lived though it may be.
Every day's a gamble lately.

The point has come where we are merely singing to the choir, never reaching the uninformed, ill advised masses. Until more of us realize that the media is the first line defense of all things wrong in this government, dare to take them on, nothing will change. The internet was going to do that...it has failed. The Tea Party was going to do that, but they're being defined by the media and aligning themselves with the likes of Dick Armey, who will hasten their demise.

But people, instead, spend mindless hours ...years sitting in front of a computer visiting each other's pity pots. We are ruled, on both sides of the isle, by people who care about nothing but themselves, voted in by other selfish louts or those who 'think' they know what they're voting for. ..IF they bother at all.

Often, a nation comes to a point of no return and I feel we are there. The GOP is putting up their 'best' in debate tonight. If this bunch isn't proof the end of this monumental USA experiment is near, I'll never convince you otherwise.

The only one of them who has the fortitude to change our downward course is Ron Paul.
Yeah, I know, I didn't think I would ever say it either. But go ahead, push the latest Rino, or some cult figure, especially those who can't be bothered to show up to debate, who won't do squat except more of the same..... you hard headed, 'don't confuse me with facts' republicans!
The left stopped listening to reason decades ago, what's your excuse?

You continue to allow the media to pick your candidates every 4 years....How's that workin' for ya?? They're holding all the aces, because you allow them. Fox was going to be your savior...Pfft!

None of your candidates, except Ron Paul, can beat Obama. If you all could get your egos out of the way over your wonder 'candidate' long enough, Obama might loose. But you won't, you never have. Paul is the only one with the base and the fight to do it and he's the only one not bought and paid for by Mexico or some other equally offensive entity.
I'm not happy about that conclusion, but that's the way it is.

Rocco, a character in the marvelous movie, "Boon Dock Saints II, All Saints Day" ,
speaks to us as a ghost. I can't say it better.

ROCCO:
" Most people are just talkers.

All they got is talk.
But when all's said and done,
it is the doers who change the world.
And when they do that, they change us.
That's why we never forget them...
So, which one are you?
Do you just talk about it?
Or do you stand up and do something about it?
Because believe you me all the rest of it is just coffee house bullshit."

TheTownCrier will always cherish the friendships made and your encouragement of this blog.

We miss you, Terry Anderson and *Norm Liebmann

The poor USA...
SO FAR FROM GOD
AND SO CLOSE TO MEXICO.

These are the Rules: Many are borrowed; it's hard to improve on perfection. I'm pulling a Ghandi here as well.
He once said to judge him by his most recent comments; that he, too, may learn some things
and change his mind on a given subject! I never have mastered the last two.....

1. Protect the innocent.
2. Never ask someone to do something that you are not willing to do yourself.
3. Leave it like you found it, or make it better.
4. Keep your promises and pay your bills - on time.
5. SILENCE IS CONSENT.
6. Slavery didn’t happen because people are black or white. Evil isn’t particular about color.
7. Be careful what you wish for.
8. NEVER LET ANYONE TELL YOU THAT YOU CAN’T MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
9. Greed is more devastating than poverty.
10. Your rights stop where my nose starts.
11. You are only as strong as what you stand next to, that from which you draw your strength.
12. Youth and strength are no match for old age and treachery.
13. Never try to teach a pig to sing; it wastes your time and annoys the pig!!
14. "It is a bad person that has pity for those that do not deserve it." (added 5/15/07 thanks, AEMILIUS PAULUS)
