Many people just don't want to remember what you mention along with making excuses for the Hispanic people who are demanding they be treated like citizens. Reminders, from time to time, may jar some of them loose.

You'd think that people would remember Thoreau, Gandhi and Dr. King. Then again, maybe they don't know what they did and why.

This little article is dead on. Read it if you dare swooners. I know most won't even click on the link.

"Barack Obama would not be occupying the Oval Office if it were not for the people over the past sixty years who have blindly supported those who have lied to them. The overriding stratagem of socialism/Marxism is "the ends justify the means" -- thus, no lie is too big to tell, no promise too outrageous to promote, and no tactic out of bounds. The overall strategy of the Obama re-election team confirms this mindset as it conducts a demagogic campaign based solely on emotional appeals to that part of the population its operatives consider "useful idiots." Those who thoughtlessly supported the left in America over the years are beginning to reap what they have sown. Unfortunately so is the rest of the population.

I doubt in the three minutes it took you to respond you had the time to read the article and post this witty little picture as a reply. Appears you and your orator have something in common.

SAP Blows, big time. We call it sap, like from a tree instead of their beloved Ess Ay Pee pronunciation.
