This quote of John Hessin Clarke's somehow reminds me of a Narrow-Minded Character by the name of Robert Mueller ~

Generations of Repetitive Practiced Communist Theories of Indoctrination have sadly Influenced far too many Youthful Americans.

The Federalist and the Anti-Federalist Papers were published under pseudonyms to safeguard their authors, as well as to educate and inform the public at large.

Charlton Heston was absolutely correct. "Political Correctness" is nothing but the tyrannical despotic stifling of opinions, choice and unalienable rights.

Sadly, the conglomerated Press and the bought and paid MSM are no longer protectors of the truth.
They, the Press and the MSM have become the slaughterers of necessary truthful informative in order to practice their evil deceptive manipulations of the knowledge and thinking of the people.

The Hegelian Principle:
Step one: CREATE A "PROBLEM":
Create it or take one that does exist and build it up out of all proportion to its real importance;

Step Two: PUBLICIZE THE "PROBLEM":
Make sure a story about this problem appears in the news media each and every day, in newspapers, news magazines, radio, and television. Hit it again and again in a "steady drumbeat" that soon has people who don't pay real attention to politics (which is the majority of them) clamoring for a "solution" to the problem;

Step Three: OFFER A "SOLUTION":
A solution that takes away one or more of our rights and further undermines the constitutional protections we all are supposed to enjoy. One that involves higher taxes (to pay for this "solution," of course), and one we would not have allowed them to do without this previous conditioning of the public.

Works like a charm

They've been using this method for a long time now, and it's working for them. It has allowed them to "tighten the noose" on the American people to a point we wouldn't have believed even a few short years ago.

Great quote!

Socialism requires group think and mob rule. When you don't follow and obey the mob and their "group think" the outcome is too often to use their force to shut you up and lay you out.

What is absolutely a frightening thought is the idea of how many are out there that actually think and speak in the Waffler narrative.
They like Waffler love their Masters and only wish to have more of the collective chains added to their burdens.
Individual Unalienable Rights and Freedoms are a true anomaly in their collective trapped mind-sets.

As ever the great man of true wisdom Walter E. Williams speaks clear and undeniable truth.

Waffler - Had an earwig crawl into his ear years ago and therefore his capacity for true objective rational deductions was long ago lost when the earwig buzzed out any and all meaningful sense.

If only those DC"vers Serving Us Up in government had just a smidgen of the wisdom and intelligence of the great Frederic Bastiat.

Reston, Waffler and Jack sadly lack one iota of the wisdom or the intelligence of Bastiat and forever live in the world of hopeless cases. The term 'Limited Government Republic' is beyond their ability to absorb and comprehend.

The Oligarchy is in full bloom with the constitution shredder residing in the White House.

Justice Louis D. Brandeis was absolutely correct and his warning has come to full fruition. The federal government has become lawless in often violating the U.S. Constitution ... and in brazenly displaying full out contempt for this sovereign nation's ONLY Supreme Rule of Law.

Amen - Ron Paul!

An infinite truth!

Thank you for sharing that informative information, E Archer. I don't doubt that John Adams created the 'Alien and Sedition Act', because of Ben Franklin's grandson dissenting so loudly.
Sadly, John Adams had great disdain for Ben Franklin and therefore irrationally tossed his oath of office to the four winds.

Good Old Theodore Was Part and Parcel Of The Corruption!

You can't make that statement anymore clearer or perfect!

This is what Frederic Bastiat referred to as one of the means of Legalized Plunder! "But how is this legal plunder to be identified? Quite simply. See if the law takes from some persons what belongs to them, and gives it to other persons to whom it does not belong. See if the law benefits one citizen at the expense of another by doing what the citizen himself cannot do without committing a crime." -- Frederic Bastiat Love your statement Wendy!

Hmmm? Is "Reston" Pres. Obama's AKA?

Strange how all the usual naysayers are missing from commenting on this quote.

Thank goodness the Ant's out-number the Grasshopper's in "Liberty Tree." It is so sad that there are those who do not believe in their own self-reliance and personal responsibility. Thank goodness for our founders who believed in "Marching to their own parade" or the naysayers would not even have a forum like this to address their continuous onslaught of negative opinions.

Anyone who cannot understand and agree with Calvin Coolidge's statement greatly lacks the ability to put one brain cell in front of the other.
