God bless America; Land that I love; Stand beside her, And guide her Through the night with the light from above. Irving Berlin
Statues Are Part of History
De Blasio Announces NY Commission to “Reevaluate Historical Narratives” and Look at Removing Thomas Jefferson Statue in City Hall
David Limbaugh: The Silent Majority can be silent no more . . . "It was surreal that some of their leading presidential candidates openly supported the abolition of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. But this widespread move to defund the police takes the insanity to French Revolution-crazy levels.
"How can parents not fear for their kids' future? How can an entire political party give itself over to a lawless mob? How can it condone the systematic suppression of political speech by Hollywood, the corporate left and social media giants?
"Do rank-and-file liberals want to live in a country whose culture destroys people who won't toe the leftist line?
"Ironically, it will only be a matter of time before the mob they legitimized will turn on them, as surely as the French revolutionaries turned on their mastermind Maximilien Robespierre."
. . .
"Too many on the right also mistakenly believe that this Democratic frenzy and leftist unrest is all based primarily on their contempt for President Donald Trump. He has made them crazy, and they'll do anything to get rid of him. Then everything will return to normal.
"Yes, he makes them crazier, more desperate and more unreasonable -- mainly because he's fighting them hammer and tongs -- but he didn't make them leftists, and leftists don't need any prompting to unleash their hell on America. It stands for everything they hate.
"With or without Trump, their goals remain the same. But without Trump, their chances of finally undoing America immeasurably increase."
"I began this column saying we can't afford to be discouraged. We can't. But that doesn't mean we can afford to be blind to the gravity of the threats we face." . . .
You Can’t Learn From a History That’s Been Deleted "The “memory hole” is one of the most haunting images in George Orwell’s dystopian novel Nineteen Eighty-Four. Used by government workers at the Ministry of Truth, this chute in the wall enabled Oceania’s one-party government to edit history at will and incinerate all evidence of their propagandistic deeds:" . . .
It seems that Italians have more common sense than some Americans. The removal of hundreds of Civil War monuments, including the recent removal of a statue of Jefferson Davis and an attempt to remove the imposing image of Robert E. Lee in Richmond, are part of a similar attempt to suppress an aspect of our history that some now see as offensive.I'm sure this song will be verboten, along with all our historical monuments: The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down
