When you get a bunch of 'thumbs up', you know the leftist trolls will attack.

I welcome it - it proves a person to be wrong when they dispute Facts.

I am constantly impressed with Bill's talent for articulating conservative principles in such an entertaining and elegant manner. Well done Bill!

[Michael Beaty]

Better doesn't mean perfect.

SERVED!

T'was the democrats that fought for slavery in the days before the civil war.

T'was the democrats that resisted abolitionism.

T'was democrats that started the bloody civil war simply because they lost an election.

T'was the democrats that supported the Klan and Jim Crow Laws.

T'was the democrats that oppressed and murdered MLK.

T'was the democrats that CONTINUE to bind the black man.

The blacks have voted democrat since the 1960's. They're STILL in the projects.

This is a wonderful 're-translation' BTW. It really adds more meaning to me. This re-translation restores the lost knowledge and concepts that have been lost to time.

[3martijns]

Exactly.  =)

[Charles Hammond Jr]

They may hate. Let them. It is all they can do and all they can be.

[Debdatta Basu]

That was beautiful!

[Puglous]

Bill, you are chicken soup for the soul. In an era of oikophobia, cynicism, pessimism, and delusion, your righteous anger, common sense, and long view optimism is so beautiful.
