Decency?

by

it’s all about the mean.  I listened to the Ray Stevens video that Tim posted, and near the end of the video, this line caught my ear:

"Once you renounce any sense of decency, it gets easier and easier!"

Which, given the topic and butt of the video and adding in Rick’s post, translates as

1) Selfishness – the Dependent / Ward of the State:  My needs trumps your means. 

2) Totalitarianism – the Politician: My ends trumps your means to feed the need.

Put them together and #1 & #2 mean this: you’re just mean (if you complain). Yeah, so what else is new…they just want me to believe their meme that paying taxes is the same thing as individual charity.  Have they no decency?

As an evangelical Christian and Conservative with small "L" libertarian leanings, my fight is with Progressives forcing a collectivized, secular humanistic future upon us. As a TEA Party activist, citizen journalist, and pundit!, my goal is to use the New Media to advance the radical notions of America's Founders back into our culture.
