Good read, but I always maintain that we're exceptional when we act exceptionally.

Our task is simple. What group of murders do we support?

Kid,
A terrific read!

I'll mention that when General DeGaule told General Eisenhower, to leave France, Eisenhower told him "when we bury our dead, then we will leave"!

Also, when it came to the Soviet Union sending up Sputnik, JFK announced to the American people, "We will build our own space program and land on the moon within a decade. Yes we did, in 1969. In those days Democrats were not left wing nuts, and JFK was anti-communist, and a true American. This is the attitude of exceptionalism. We wouldn't tolerate any country beating us to the punch!

Thanks much Krabby :)

Kid said...

CI, yes, we can't be proud of everything can we, but still.

Kid said...

Pris, Thank you very much!

Capitalism will always beat forced or regulated labor. Millions of events performed by motivated people resulted in us landing on the moon.

I recently found out the Russians attempted to land a robot lander on the moon which got there an hour before us but crashed. That's wild.

Obviously, they weren't up to the task of getting people there and back, which took so much more development.

It's always a pleasure to read well-written commentary from an author who knows what he's talking about, isn't it?

Kid said...

FT, Thank you very much!

The news from the Comrades at the Progressive Bloggers Club is as phoney as ever, to believe the insane stuff there is like thinking that Obama really was/is the messiah

Obama: “When I think about this boy, I think about my own kids,
The usual suspects are at it again playing their race cards.Obama will never let a good crisis go to waste.
Do we no longer trust the Grand Jury process? Or did we only trust it when OJ Simpson was on trial?
Where is George Zimmerman's civil rights, when we see the Black Panthers, Spike Lee, the NAACP, Al Sharpton, Jessie Jackson, and the President of the United States already saying that he's guilty?
And all the rest of the racists in America already deciding he is guilty!
How can he get a fair trial when The Race-Card president speaks out against him?
“Trayvon Martin could have been me 35 years ago,”

And how come Obama and Holder don't speak out against what the the Black Panthers are doing?
How can he get a fair trial when Spike Lee, Holder, Al Sharpton and the Black Panthers stirs up the lynch mob along with the other race hustlers?
The New Black Panthers are no better than and reminiscent of the KKK...The phony belief that 17 year olds are kids is BULL. They are adults PERIOD. They serve in the military as we speak. They are more than capable of making rational decisions. We were all 17 once. Should we give a pass to a 17 year olds now because he was a Black? When is the cutoff? Does their brain magically transform at midnight on their 18th birthday? Even the criminal justice system says they are adults. Secondly, Zimmerman was LEGALLY carrying that gun. I agree you should NEVER start a conformation when you are armed, but the Trayvon MArtin supporters here incorrectly believe that following a person you feel is suspicious and calling 911 on him is cause to start a fight. It is not. Thinking that punching somebody in the face because they are following you is acceptable is why black neighborhoods are in such a mess. There is NOT ONE shred of evidence that Zimmerman started that confrontation. There was AMPLE evidence that Trayvon did, starting with the facebook posts and the texts that the judge refused to allow, yet somehow felt that a professor that Zimmerman had 2 years before was a good witness. Not to mention the physical evidence and the eyewitness testimony.

As for the anger that blacks feel, get over it. Nobody here owned slaves. Slavery and Jim Crowe were a LONG time ago. Black teens who don't walk, talk, dress, and act like thugs DON'T get profiled. They DON'T get stopped by the police. They do just fine in life. Rather than placate the masses, Barack Obama should have said "My father left me when I was 2. I didn't let it stop me. Stayed in school and became president. You can too". Rather than imitate these thugs and these nasty rappers, maybe it's time for black celebrities (not the thug rappers or members of the National Felon League) to come forward and speak to these kids. Tell them there is a better way. Because Barack Obama can make those dopey "If I had a son he would like like Trayvon" comments all he wants, but we ALL know if Barack Obama had a son, he would NOT look like Trayvon. he would have been a decent, educated person like his daughters are. You think those kids would ever date a thug like Trayvon? Many “kids” under 18 years old are killers, and look a LOT like Trayvon Martin did. .

Obama says that he’s "Prepared To Act": Who Is He Kidding?
So Obama promises to act. What does that mean? He will submit a resolution to the UN? He will seek congressional approval for an teensy weensy. limited, very small air strike? Will he issue a new list of sanctions? Or will he draw another “Red Line”, and then go out and play a round of Golf.
Unlike George Bush who said to the congress if he doesn't comply to UN sanctions he will Attack, and he did!
Assad must be laughing his ass off at this dumbshit. He has no credibility anywhere in the world.

"BOILERPLATE " of ANY kind is CONTEMPTIBLE -- and insult to the intelligence of and an offense to sincere bloggers of ALL persuasions everywhere.

How do you KNOW it's "BOILERPLATE?"

By it's physical appearance of GRANITIC VERBOSITY.

Has it occurred to you Mr. Free Thinke, That what you did to Shaw Kenawe, results in KARMA! What Goes Around Comes Around.
A person’s actions, whether good or bad, will often have consequences for that person. Thus the concept of Karma.

Rottweiler, perfectly stated. Bozo's taking all positions on an issue trying to capitalize on the one that rings the bell.
