Too many of the Roman people were copacetic with a tyrant ruling them because a) he proposed to destroy the people they envied and b) promised to give them bread and circuses and c) the Julii Caeseres were just so cool they couldn't help but want Gaius Julius to be their very own tyrant; the Caesers were the Kennedys or Clintons of the Late Republic.

Jail Republicans because they disagree with the Dems on policies, arrest conservatives, throw Tea Partiers into camps. Yeah, these Dem "Progressives" are real liberals, all right.<br /><br />There was a time when a liberal was one who believed in liberty. Those days are long past in the US of A. The socialists stole the word then debased it. Now they are running away from the stink they made of it, towards another word they also will make to stink in the nostrils of the body politic.<br /><br />They love to call us racists, we who oppose the Obama Administration's policies that are wrecking the country. But to attribute opposition to ineffective, improvident, and wasteful policies to racist resentment of a black (or half-black) president is an assertion of such stunning stupidity that only the most moronic, most ignorant, and most ill-informed people would believe it. One need only think about it for a moment to see its fallacy. It makes the assumption that, if the president wasn't black, all those opposing his policies would be for them, if they were advocated by someone like, say, Joe Biden. The stupidity and malice of this aassumption is so obvious that it should prove permanently the bad faith of any Democrats or "liberal" media types who put it forward, which means all of them. They must know, being of at least reasonable intelligence and education, that they are peddling a lie.<br /><br />During the Revolutionary period and its immediate aftermath, the patriots questioned themselves often if they had the virtue to maintain independence and a republican form of government. They believed that only a virtuous people were fit for self-government, and that if Americans did not hew to a virtuous life (both in the Christian sense and in the ancient Roman sense), liberty and independence would be lost. They were correct. <br /><br />That was the reason many of them admired Marcus Porcius Cato the Younger, a man who, however unpleasant he might personally have been, fought against Caesar's tyranny to the end and, when he could fight no more, killed himself rather than submit to the tyrant.Michael Lonienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6935370618605188900.post-82965425527106420232013-10-20T10:32:46.187-04:002013-10-20T10:32:46.187-04:00Count me among congressman Cohen's domestic en...Count me among congressman Cohen's domestic enemies.
