Happy Thanksgiving, Z. Best regards to you and yours.
I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving on this most American of all holidays.
From Rush Limbaugh's book "See I Told You So", the REAL story of Thanksgiving...
---Now, how many of you grew up and how many of your children are growing up today being taught this: The Pilgrims arrived, and it was cold, and it was inhospitable in the New World. And they were ill-equipped to fend for themselves, and they were bedraggled and they were tired and they were hungry and they were thirsty and they were incapable of getting along, and finally the Indians, who they would later massacre, the Indians befriended the Pilgrims and showed them about corn and maize and created a big feast of turkey and dressing and cranberry sauce and maybe even some cheese broccoli. They all sat down and they had Thanksgiving together, and it was the Pilgrims thanking the Indians for saving their wretched lives. And then of course after all of this mercy showed by the Indians, these Pilgrims and their descendants went out and wiped 'em out and put 'em on revolutionaries where they became alcoholics and now they run casinos.
That, ladies and gentlemen, is the traditional story of Thanksgiving, is it not? In fact, the Pilgrims and their descendants not only brought all of the plagues, they brought syphilis, they brought environmental destruction, racism, sexism, bigotry, even brought homophobia. Stole Manhattan for 24 bucks, they cheated the Indians, they cheated the Indians who had saved their lives by buying Manhattan for 24 bucks and some trinkets. It was the first ever subprime loan, ladies and gentlemen, the first ever subprime mortgage, 24 bucks. The Indians got screwed royally. This is what your kid is likely taught these days in the multicultural curricula in school. Do you know the real story of Thanksgiving? The Pilgrims arrived and they had to immediately find a way to make a living. They had to find a way to support themselves, and this is, by the way, all contained in William Bradford, he was the first governor, if you will, of the colony. William Bradford in his own writings, which I quote in my book See, I Told You So, William Bradford describes their first experiment.
They gave everybody a plot of land. Everybody produced what they produced and it went into a single store, it went into a communal store where everybody was then able to partake what they needed and what they wanted from what everybody else had produced. Bradford found that this led to a bunch of slackers, a bunch of slackers not producing anything. They just sat around and waited for what the others in the colony produced. It didn't work! The first ever experiment with socialism on this country was undertaken by the Pilgrims in the 1600s. Bradford said this isn't gonna work and got a different idea. He gave everybody their own plot of hand, he assigned them their own plot of land and said whatever you produce here is yours. You keep it. And he writes of the miracle that happened after that. The industriousness and the ambition that was utilized by the Pilgrims, that is when they became prosperous, that is when they had bounty, that is when they had more than they knew what to do with.
So they invited the Indians over, and the whole notion of Thanksgiving was William Bradford and the original Pilgrims thanking God for their blessings. It was not thanking the Indians for saving their lives and showing them how to make broccoli with cheese for Thanksgiving. They might have been grateful for the popcorn, I'm sure they didn't have that over there in England, but nevertheless, that's the story. The first ever experiment with socialism failed, and liberals have been trying to reinstitute it ever since. Read it. It's on page 70, See, I Told You So, authored by me, the one and only El Rushbo.---
Sorry that I didn't sign it! Enjoy your turkey.

This is from me and my family to all of you who hold freedom's light high: God bless you and keep you. May his light shine down on you in what may be coming. I am truly thankful for each voice I see on these sites. There may come a day when we can not speak as freely as we would like, but until then, you all are blessings in my heart.
Happy Thanksgiving.

Happy Thanksgiving Z and God bless.
Z..may you, and your family, enjoy a blessed and Happy Thanksgiving!
I'm going to have Thanksgiving with my sister.
I'm making sausage for the occasion. It's a Slavic thing.
Enjoy all.
Ducky, sausage to eat as sausage or grind for the stuffing? What makes it Slavik? I'd love to know.
I hope you have a wonderful day. I saw your presents to your nieces at AOW's and told you there that I thought they were wonderful ideas...they're lucky to have you for an uncle.
Wow! Sunday came early this week!!!
It's my dad's kielbasa recipe, z.
A big plate of sausage has always been a family Thanksgiving tradition for as long as I can remember, even when we used to have Thanksgiving with grandpa Max when I was just a tiny guy.
Ducky..WITH turkey or THE SAUSAGE is the big deal? I love traditions! Must be nice to make something your relatives made for years...I love that myself, celebrating my Armenian foods...tho I don't enough.
We'll have a turkey tomorrow but frankly the turkey has always been optional. I remember Thanksgivings without it.
Don't remember one without the kielbasa.
I don't do the kind of bland round sausage. That's a rural style.
I do a spiced Kracow style straight sausage.
Beautiful Z.
I'd like to take this opportunity to wish all here a Happy and blessed Thanksgiving.
I'd also like to thank our troops who will celebrate this American holiday in strange lands far away from their families. God bless and keep them.
Have a wonderful day everyone.
A special wish to Z and Mr.Z for a beautiful Thanksgiving.
Pris
