“Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.” ~ H.L. Mencken
But, I'm not normal.
I don't spit, I hoisted the black flag long ago, and my version of slitting throats is watching the v*ters elect Trump. Or Sanders. Or Clinton, part 2. Or Paul, Cruz, Rubio, or any other of the toxic vermin running for president. They are all socialistic scum- the very flower of collectivism.
V*ters will get the president they deserve- unfortunately, they force the stupid bugger on the rest of us.
Is it bad that I hope the worst candidate "wins"? And the worse the president, the better I think it may actually be in the long run?
History shows that every president will be worse than the one before. Yes, even the ones from what you see as some Golden Age- because if they didn't void everything that was done before they took office, they added to the problem.
Now I no longer care how bad a president is- I just do what I must to survive his rule. I wouldn't exactly say I'm enthusiastic for an apocalypse, but I do sometimes think "Let's just get this over with." Sometimes you have to walk toward the fire- and then through it- to survive. You will suffer damage, but that's life. Do the best you can in less-than-perfect circumstances.

Understand and agree. On 'undoing':
ReplyDeleteAlthough the drive-by media has ignored it, one candidate has pledged to revoke every executive order issued by the chocolate jesus.
Cruz.
Well, it's a start. Then he'd have to revoke every executive order imposed by Bush II, Clinton, Bush I, Reagan, etc.
