Howdy, Bogart, welcome and all that. They said the sky would fall in and crush our skulls when Reagan got elected in 1980, because he reckoned it good to defeat and smash the Communists. We're still fine. Some others, more directly Communist-plagued than we were, are doing even better than they were.

They said Paradise was at hand when Clinton got in -- voted against the man myself -- him being a Democrat. We all remember how that Administration turned out -- overly anti-American and anticonstitutional too, and politically reflecting its upbringing in a one-party state, Arkansas. As Presidential timber, Clinton was balsa wood. No Paradise.

They bewailed G.W. Bush as an apocalypse, and lied relentlessly about the man in an attempt to punish him for his heinous act: practicing foreign policy while Republican. How terrible is that?

Fortunately for the Republic, Bush43 did not greatly concern himself with the howlings made in the service of the fascists' fellow travelers. I suppose there may have been some honestly mistaken individuals in that chorus, but the prototalitarian leanings of the majority were as evident as they were disgusting to the people of freedom.

One thing is for certain, government never relinquishes power.

Not without circumcising a lot of government dick. And you might as well do it daily, just to keep up.
