QUOTES OF THE DAY

“Governments rest on the consent of the governed, and that it is the right of the people to alter or abolish them at will whenever they become destructive of the ends for which they were established.”

Jefferson Davis

“Never argue with a man whose job depends on not being convinced.”

H. L. Mencken

“The question of who is right and who is wrong has seemed to me always too small to be worth a moment’s thought, while the question of what is right and what is wrong has seemed all-important.”

Albert J. Nock

“A dying culture invariably exhibits personal rudeness. Bad manners. Lack of consideration for others in minor matters. A loss of politeness, of gentle manners, is more significant than is a riot.”

Robert A. Heinlein

“Consent of the governed” What a farce. What is the federal government’s polling now? 8%? It’s a friggen farce along with bullshit like “no one is above the law”. Yeah, just ask the fucking bidens. Here’s another bold faced lie: “Ignorance of the law is no excuse”. Is that why supreme justices send their taxes out to tax attorneys?

It’s all bullshit and it’s bad for ya.
