Francie26 Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 Frank W Brown • 18 hours ago A Country Founded by Geniuses but 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 or a three-year-old girl who is confined to a wheelchair 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 the government’s plan for getting people back to work is to provide incentives for not working, by granting 99 weeks of unemployment checks, without any requirement to prove that gainful employment was diligently sought, but couldn’t be found — 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. If the media panders to your openly socialist leader while the IRS targets groups with dissenting views— you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots. If your government 'cracks down' on legal gun sales to law abiding citizens while secretly supplying illegal guns to Mexican drug cartels— you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots. If your local government (Chicago) outlawed gun ownership for 'the safety of its citizens' and now boasts the worst murder rate in the country — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots. What a country! How about we give God a reason to continue blessing America?

DinarMillionaire Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 If someone running for President has constantly lied,covered,ducked,dodged,taken money from foreign governments, put the country's security at risk by running an unsecured server at her home, so she can hide her real, selfish, secretive, personal agenda. And she wins the Presidency...you might live in a nation with a majority of IDIOTS. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyLadiesDaddy Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 AUTHOR: Will Durant (1885–1981) QUOTATION: A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself within. http://www.bartleby.com/73/1646.html A great, and prophetic, choice of words when one considers that this nation will be destroyed because of its peoples willingness to murder there own babies. That which is, "WITHIN". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xtaxguy Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 NO! Not run by idiots! Run by diabolically clever, power-mad, greedy, sociopaths. Supported by idiots who infest and dominate the media and education businesses, and the lazy and incompetent leaches who elect them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
