Title couldn’t say it all.
You are not supposed to be so blind with patriotism, that you can’t face reality.
Wrong is wrong, no matter who says it, who does it, neither where or when it is done.

“In history, truth should be held sacred, at whatever cost . . . especially against the narrow and futile patriotism, which, instead of pressing forward in pursuit of truth, takes pride in walking backwards to cover the slightest nakedness of our forefathers.”

Here's the truth: The left has proven that if they are in control we will live under marshal law with no rights. Kind of funny watching liberal "experts" being devastated by the fact that Florida reopening and Georgia reopening hasn't caused more deaths.

You might attain a shred of credibility if you did something other than repeat inanities thought up by others.

You're wrong skibum. Parroting others is all that matters.

Quotations are used by me as a means of inspiration and to invoke philosophical thoughts from the reader.
Pragmatically speaking, quotations can also be used as language games (in the Wittgensteinian sense of the term) to manipulate social order and the structure of society
“Like everything metaphysical the harmony between thought and reality is to be found in the grammar of the language.”
~ Ludwig Wittgenstein
Austrian-British philosopher
Born: April 26, 1889, Vienna, Austria
Died: April 29, 1951, Cambridge, United Kingdom

Old men (like myself) are fond of giving good advice to console themselves for their inability to give bad examples.
Wise men don't need advice.
Fools won't take it.

Advice offered for free and unsolicited is worthless
Normal old men know this.

To offer fellow humans unsolicited advice is to presume that they don't know what to do or that they can't do it on their own.
People have the right and the responsibility to disregard advice, even if the person dishing it out has the best of intentions.
As they say, the road to hell is paved with good intentions.

This guy has taken over SJG for the most whacked out thinking being written on this site. Wonder if SJG will come back to take his crown back from CJ Kent?

Okay, so I take it CJ isn’t a fan of the Patriots.
