US Down Hill

Post by gunny »

Our Country is rapidly going to the three hole fecal. Unbelieveable. Saturday Review had four miss-spelled words in their editors comments. An ad to get people to join the army has someone saluting with their LEFT hand!!!!!! Found out my daughter had OK for birthcontrol pills for my three granddaughters 19/16/15. I shudder to imagine in 25 years from now. What brought this total FECAL situation on? The idiot George W. has much to blame. Perhaps it is the old 300 year empire thing that expires soon. My brother and I went to a bonding weekend last year at a resort. He is six years older, the last two of six. The queation came up. and we checked our clothing, NONE had been made in the USA. With the coming election probably electing a black muslim as our president, it is very sad. We had such a great nation. Approaching three score and ten, glad soon to not see our fine thing that I fought for and saw many friends died for go to pot. There are many net threads today suggesting a revolution. Thomas Jefferson suggested this if we saw it was the only way. My guns(sorry DI) rifles are loaded if need be.

Did not mean to preach today, but this is the only forum found that has any one semi-intelligent.

Gunny - my hat's off to you for your service and the sacrifice of your friends. I lost some as well in Viet Nam. Let's hope you won't need the guns.

Gunny, everyone needs to rant now and then. I'm glad you feel comfortable enough to express your philosophies here.

Although there is one point I must correct you on:
With the coming election probably electing a black muslim as our president, it is very sad.
Obama is not a Muslim.
We've Got Fossils - We win ~ Lewis Black

Red meat, cheese, tobacco, and liquor...it works for me ~ Anthony Bourdain

Atheism is a non-prophet organization.

At the rate they're going we won't need to do anything. They'll collapse it all by themselves and sell it off.

Salute to you, gunny (officer or no you deserve it).

Try the UK for rank stupidity that leaves your lot standing Gunny, and by the way, why do you think our lot are so anti gun? That we might shoot each other, or them?

Gunny, my only complaint is that you chose to cite an abstraction i.e., the "country" is going down the shitter, instead of putting the blame where it really belongs. on us. Far too many people have lost any vision of life as anything other than a materialistic race to acquire all the shit they see on TV. You can't call them lazy....Americans work harder than almost anyone else in order to try to maintain the lifestyle that is killing them. Ironic, eh? Education is valued only as a means to an end not as a useful goal for personal growth. Who needs that shit?

As is so often the case, the late, great George Carlin explains it best.

Something is wrong here. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty, torture, crime, corruption, and the Ice Capades. Something is definitely wrong. This is not good work. If this is the best God can do, I am not impressed.
