End the Tyranny!


Go on. Go right ahead. Vote for someone to rule you who will, bizarrely enough, "vote" himself a paycheck far larger than you could ever even imagine.

Power has its benefits, you see.

And, the best thing about our politicians is that they want power. Over you. Vote for that.

Carry on. Everything's just fine.

It's all futile. We are heading inexorably towards musty, threadbare decline, European style. Like out cousins on the Olde Continent, we no longer even want to make babies.

Democrats dream of becoming Germany, with its collective union-owner-government business model and 70% overall tax rates.

What they fail to realize is that model won't work here. Germany has an efficient and honest government; ours is grotesquely wasteful and decadently corrupt.

Just like the Jewish people so long ago, we have asked that a King rule over us.

Satan wins again.

Someone once said "we're like the 18th C, but without the talent..." I'd say there's a truth in that, Silverfiddle.

And it's odd that we're trying to mimic Europe right at the point that their system seems about to implode -- Germany notwithstanding.

But there's another factor -- the US should be a net exporter of oil and gas by 2020, if not sooner. Might change everything. Except the corruption, of course.

Yes Infidel, but we mustn't forget the serpent loses in the end.

Seems to be waxing strong in the interim...

I like that! I learn so much here.

"the US should be a net exporter of oil and gas by 2020"

But like the third-world kleptocracy we are striving mightily to become, we will heroically find a way to piss it all away. See Venezuela, Argentina...

Good Argentina/Venezuela point...

Or Great Britain - who wasted all of her oil and gas revenues ending our industrial society (causing long term mass unemployment) and replacing it with 'service industries'...like banking...errr..

Net exporter of oil and gas? Gee, the US could become the next Russia. I'm sure Obama is envious of Putin's status as Godfather of the Russian syndicate.

Well said Lukeya...

Just think, Arimathean -- Obama could run and run and...
