...so I'm reading this history book...

...here's the set up, post Civil War, Reconstruction, Southern DEMOCRATS, having lost the war, are attempting to regain their pre-war control, especially control over blacks. Grant is President, Custer was just killed, and outrage is high over "injuns' running amok. The Klan is underground, but just barely, troops previously stationed in the south to ensure safety and stability, are headed west to round up 'injuns'. Blacks and REPUBLICANS in the south see quickly that without the troops they'll be under the thumb of the Klan and DEMOCRATS, both of whom use VIOLENCE to enforce their ideal. Northerners are tired of keeping the peace down south.
.
(now here's the interesting part, and this is exact from the book page 388, of "A Patriots History of the United States)
.
and I quote,
.
Democrats and Southerners had learned an important lesson about the press: no matter how grievous the the charge, deny it; then commit another wanton act, and the first behavior will be forgotten in the storm over the new one.
.
Now I ask you, in light of Fannie & Freddie, Wrangles 'trial' for stealing and lying, Al Franken getting elected, Obama's birth certificate going to SCOTUS, Wisconsin teachers California's budget, blah, blah, blah...what is that they do DIFFERENT today, than they did 1876?! And how the hell do SOOO many people get fooled by these assholes!?
.
And as much as I hate to say this, I think the country WILL survive this current pile of trouble. But I think we may lose our status at the top of the heap.

"And how the hell do SOOO many people get fooled by these assholes!?"

Easy. It's called "diversion". Keep the people busy with nonsense, such as TV shows and gossip, and they won't notice a thing, nor remember it.It's another one of those old, but very effective tactics used by the Left and Demoncrats. Having control of the MSM, and the information that makes it's way to the public, just makes it easier.

Dude, partner o'mine, pal, I would agree, EXCEPT, it was obviously the same shit in 1876. They had NO 'merican Idle, no Paris Hilton, and no TV. They didn't have Progressives pumping the schools, etc, but they were still falling for these idiots.

As sad as it is to say, I think people are just F&%$ING stupid!! It proves to me that Barnum was right.

You can fool some of the people ALL of the time...

After that, the rest is easy! TX is looking better ALL the time. Texans will be free. And IF they have to shoot MFers, (Mexican or Muslim) they WILL be free!!

I'm thinking of having T-shirts printed.

"Democrats were / are the Party of Slavery and succession!"

Ok bud, i was trying to be nice, which is unusual for me, but i'll give you the answer i believe to be right. Generally speaking, people are stupid. And as the generations have gone by, they're still stupid. In fact, what with all the breathtaking technology they have, and with the knowledge of the ages a keystroke away, they're dumber (and weaker) than ever.

The problem is, it's hard to be NICE and tell the TRUTH at the same time!!

I struggle with it daily. But, like you, I tend to tell truth, and if someone's feelings are scraped, c'est la vie!

"people are stupid"

I was asked for a second opinion so I responded.

"People are ugly too"
