LIES! Georgia is the worst state to live in and you should not come here at all, and many who came are clearly miserable and should move back to New York, Illinois, and California, the states from which they fled. Go home and leave us alone.
Erling Haaland has returned to Norway, and it looks like he brought home a $750 Whiskey Raccoon from Wild Bill's Western Store in Dallas, Texas. What an authentic piece of American culture.
When ISIS butcher Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi died, WaPo called him an “austere religious scholar.”
When commie dictator Fidel Castro died, The NYT called him a “Cuban revolutionary who defied the U.S.”
Lindsey Graham raised his younger sister after their parents died, served 33 years in uniform and more than 3 decades in Congress.
He dies, and prominent media voices reach back 6 years for an essay titled “History Will Judge the Complicit.”
This isn’t merely bad taste, it’s a moral hierarchy:
America’s enemies get context, euphemism, romance — American conservatives get a bill of indictment before their body is even cold.
If everyone is so convinced that every member of Congress is such a horribly evil person unworthy of the public trust, shouldn't we consider limited government? Perhaps enumerate the specific powers of Congress and retain the rest with the states and people?
If Democrats want someone who hates capitalism, despises Trump, loves Nazi apologism, hugs America's enemies, has Cenk Uygur's endorsement, and cosplays as a blue collar working man even though he grew up silver spoon...Tucker Carlson does have a house in Maine.
It's crazy to think that just 80 years after we literally nuked their cities, Japan is one of our closest friends and is commemorating our Independence Day with a fireworks show, while Palestinians are still mad that their great great grandparents had to move a few miles after losing a war they started and now need to murder as many people as possible for the rest of time.
Compare Calvin Coolidge on America’s 150th anniversary:
“It is often asserted that the world has made a great deal of progress since 1776, that we have had new thoughts and new experiences which have given us a great advance over the people of that day, and that we may therefore very well discard their conclusions for something more modern. But that reasoning can not be applied to this great charter. If all men are created equal, that is final. If they are endowed with inalienable rights, that is final. If governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed, that is final. No advance, no progress can be made beyond these propositions. If anyone wishes to deny their truth or their soundness, the only direction in which he can proceed historically is not forward, but backward toward the time when there was no equality, no rights of the individual, no rule of the people. Those who wish to proceed in that direction can not lay claim to progress. They are reactionary. Their ideas are not more modern, but more ancient, than those of the Revolutionary fathers."
