A Nation Run by Idiots

By Jeff Foxworthy:

  • If plastic water bottles are okay, but plastic bags are banned, — you might live in a nation (state) that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
  • If you can get arrested for hunting or fishing without a license, but not for entering and remaining in the country illegally — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
  • If you have to get your parents’ permission to go on a field trip or to take an aspirin in school, but not to get an abortion — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
  • If you MUST show your identification to board an airplane, cash a check, buy liquor, or check out a library book and rent a video, but not to vote for who runs the government — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
  • If the government wants to prevent stable, law-abiding citizens from owning gun magazines that hold more than ten rounds, but gives twenty F-16 fighter jets to the crazy new leaders in Egypt — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
  • If, in the nation’s largest city, you can buy two 16-ounce sodas, but not one 24-ounce soda, because 24-ounces of a sugary drink might make you fat — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

  • If an 80-year-old woman who is confined to a wheelchair or a three-year-old girl can be strip-searched by the TSA at the airport, but a woman in a burka or a hijab is only subject to having her neck and head searched — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
  • If your government believes that the best way to eradicate trillions of dollars of debt is to spend trillions more — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
  • If a seven-year-old boy can be thrown out of school for saying his teacher is “cute” but hosting a sexual exploration or diversity class in grade school is perfectly acceptable — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
  • If hard work and success are met with higher taxes and more government regulation and intrusion while not working is rewarded with Food Stamps, WIC checks, Medicaid benefits, subsidized housing, and free cell phones — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
  • If you pay your mortgage faithfully, denying yourself the newest big-screen TV, while your neighbor buys iPhones, time shares, a wall-sized do-it-all plasma screen TV and new cars, and the government forgives his debt when he defaults on his mortgage — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
  • If being stripped of your Constitutional right to defend yourself makes you more “safe” according to the government — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

THINK BEFORE YOU VOTE IN ALL UPCOMING ELECTIONS. MOST OF THE IDIOTS RUNNING THIS COUNTRY SAY ONE THING AND DO THE OPPOSITE KNOWING THAT THE PEOPLE WHO VOTED THEM IN DO NOT PAY ATTENTION LET’S SEE IF I GOT THIS RIGHT!!!   IF YOU CROSS THE NORTH KOREAN BORDER ILLEGALLY YOU GET 12 YEARS HARD LABOR.  IF YOU CROSS THE IRANIAN BORDER ILLEGALLY YOU ARE DETAINED INDEFINITELY.   IF YOU CROSS THE AFGHAN BORDER ILLEGALLY, YOU GET SHOT. IF YOU CROSS THE SAUDI ARABIAN BORDER ILLEGALLY YOU WILL BE JAILED. IF YOU CROSS THE CHINESE BORDER ILLEGALLY YOU MAY NEVER BE HEARD FROM AGAIN. IF YOU CROSS THE VENEZUELAN BORDER ILLEGALLY YOU WILL BE BRANDED A SPY AND YOUR FATE WILL BE SEALED.   IF YOU CROSS THE CUBAN BORDER ILLEGALLY YOU WILL BE THROWN INTO POLITICAL PRISON TO ROT.

IF YOU CROSS THE U.S. BORDER ILLEGALLY YOU GET ……. !!! A JOB, A DRIVERS LICENSE, SOCIAL SECURITY CARD, WELFARE, FOOD STAMPS, CREDIT CARDS, SUBSIDIZED RENT OR A LOAN TO BUY A HOUSE, FREE EDUCATION, FREE HEALTH CARE, A LOBBYIST IN WASHINGTON BILLIONS OF DOLLARS WORTH OF PUBLIC DOCUMENTS PRINTED IN YOUR LANGUAGE THE RIGHT TO CARRY YOUR COUNTRY’S FLAG WHILE YOU PROTEST THAT YOU DON’T GET ENOUGH RESPECT AND, IN MANY INSTANCES, YOU CAN VOTE. I JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE I HAD A FIRM GRASP ON THE SITUATION !!!

At top of this article it states “by Jeff Foxworthy”.
At bottom of article it states “Author: Roy”

In either case, IMO both Dem and Rep establishments have for many years agreed to allow all of the above to occur. It has been planned; just like it has been planned for Western developed countries to allow the Islamic Musloids to enter in huge numbers and eventually take over, including Sharia.

There is a reason why many government agencies not related to LE have armed up.

Things are going to change soon.

Our current situation is both unstable and unsustainable.

I don’t know which way they will go, but I do know our nation will be very different than it is now in just a few years.

good ol’ Thomas Wolfe from Asheville coined the term “fear and loathing” for Hunter T and he would be going totally bonkers in disgust of todays’ world.

When you know someone employed by government with a high “6” figure salary and when you asked ,exactly what he does he replies : It’s all “BULL SHIT” my office supplies the figures for the government to announce how good the economy is doing and none of it has any basis in facts . We live in a nation conceived and founded by geniuses and run by idiots . Will the last American turn out the light when you leave never mind locking up “ITS ALL FUCKING GONE NOW”

Tragically, everything our grandparents, parents and families have worked for to building America has been willfully destroyed. Being cynical will not get it back. The only thing that can get it back is the will of the people. My bet is that there aren’t enough people who care. Sadly, those who don’t care are actively destroying it.

You are under the delusion that the so called founding fathers where geniuses.
You forget that the Convention was to tweak the Articles of Confederation
to pay the war debt. Washington and Hamilton shoved the Constitution
that was written weeks before down the throats of the Delegates
making it the greatest coup in world history. Washington was not even a recognized delegate.
During the first few weeks of the seated government, Congress voted to blockade RI.
RI was the only state to have the population directly vote on the Constitution.
The People of RI rejected it by an 11 to 1 margin.
RI ratified it under duress. The other states ratified it through committees
of lawyers, land speculators, Merchants, and other elite.
The people controlling this continent were no less corrupt than those in the news today.
Most of history is a lie and a fairy tale.
