There was an editorial cartoon in our paper this week. It had Lincoln sitting in a chair holding an envelope. Next to him was a big fat slob of a white guy sitting at a computer with a container of “big gulp.” The caption said “The BACK of an ENVELOPE? DUDE I can’t scan and UPLOAD that to YOUTUBE in time for the AM BLOGS!!”
I mention this just to let you “BESTs” know that you are already scaring the hell out of more than you probably know. Of course things have gotten worse for fifty years. It’s unfortunately, a fact of life that things rot until the stench is intolerable. But the time has come. I think that lincoln is also credited with saying that “you can’t fool ALL the people ALL the time.”

ME:
Lincoln said “You can’t fool all of the people all of the time.”
Which describes US.
He also said, “You can fool some of the people some of the time.”
But when he said the latter, he was THINKING, “But if you do it ONCE, it lasts four years.”

Bob your last quote by Lincoln sounded so liberal aka proper conservative, it is truth coupled with honesty, no wonder things are so screwed up, Lincolns saying should have sent him to the gallows.
