Something is situationally right or wrong. It is neither conservative or progressive untill perceived as such. It certainly is neither Republican or Democrat untill adopted by one or the other.

Believe whatever the hell you want. Karma is a bitch. What goes around comes around. I'm tired of politics where both sides are wrong. Of the people, by the people, and for the people is dead. A tidal wave of chit is coming, whoever wins. Be ready, be prepared, and have your plans in place.

"Of the people, by the people, and for the people" Silly Lincolnian nonsense talk. Did you know Lincoln borrowed that from a 1850 speech by Theodore Parker, a New England preacher? Lincoln wasn't religious at all, but he did like to grab flowery prose from preachers sermons and speech's. The original line went like this: "a democracy, that is, a government of all the people, by all the people, for all the people"
It's hard to fathom anything of the sort existed in Lincolns time and it's certainly a lie now. The people are not steering the ship of State, all they do is elect the same old Democrats and Republicans who rearrange the deck chairs on the Titanic.

the other image is from the Twilight Zone episode, where William Shatner's character is a passenger on an airplane who notices malevolent gremlins actively sabotaging the plane's jet engine and wing...but he can't convince any other passenger that they are doomed...


you gonna vote?

without looking at the current state of affairs, America has been a model of democratic rule, one that much of the modern world has tried to emulate...

I like that episode, it's a good analogy for how the state of affairs has been for a long time and the political class is the gremlins. There are always a few warning of trouble ahead while the 🐏 sleep.
