The GOP's self-evident truths

Declaration of Independence: "Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."

Republicans: "Forced birth, imposed religion, and working until you die."

What is life

244 years from our better angels to our fucking idiots

Watching all the republican idiots claiming that their liberties are more important than my life got me to thinking about Thomas Jefferson and the Declaration of Independence, wherein he states that, "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness."

There was a reason Jefferson listed Life first--because when you're dead, the other two don't really fucking matter.

And one to piss off your racist acquaintances

Regular readers (both of you) will have noticed that this blog is, and always will be, ad free--because it's not about money, it's about people (well that and the fact that no money making enterprise cares about it either).  But every now and again a business will do something surprising and worth noting...like this ad from Ancestry.com showing just how far we have come in our diverseness in the 241 years we've been fighting for the American dream:

O beautiful for spacious skies, indeed.

Heil Trump!

Your typical Donald Trump rally...

This is why it's a waste of time to engage Trump supporters--words from Trump's Florida rally this weekend:

"I don't care what he does.  I'm behind him 100%.  Put it this way:  If he became a dictator and they said, 'We want him forever,' he's my man.  He's in.  I'll never vote against him...I love his power...It's the power that does something to me."

Cretins such as this man have no idea what America is or what America means.  The Declaration of Independence and the U. S. Constitution are just words they throw out in their false patriotism, but they flat do not understand that the former was written in response to the scenario outlined above and the latter was written to prevent it from ever happening here.

Trump supporters do not love America--they love watching the powerful run roughshod over the powerless.  And they have neither the courage nor the heart to fight back like those in the resistance do.  Instead they'd rather have the vicarious thrill of watching Donald Trump and his idiot minions use powers that Trump's supporters will never know to destroy the best laid plans of our Founding Fathers.

Make America great again, my ass.
