I tend to not delve into partisan politics here, on this blog. The reason being, I see most politicians as pretty much the same.
However, every now and then, I see something so funny, I just have to share it.
The following video is one such item:
Honestly, you can't make up shit like this !
How about the way the superintendent passes the buck? I wonder how much he gets paid to act stupid.
OK, I have been neglecting this blog for quite some time. It's just that I haven't had sufficient ire for a good rant. Or, what passes for a good rant from me ;-)
Shit, folks, look at the title. Do you actually think I came up with apathy by mistake? IngnerenceEgnorenceIgnnorince Ignorance fits pretty well too.
I am those things !
They seem to have a problem with the fact he was NOT a good christian sheep it seems. I've read a lot of Jefferson, and while he may be somewhat of a hypocrite by today's standards, he is one of the finest political philosophers in history. Yes, he advocated the separation of church and state. No he did not say you couldn't worship, or that you had to worship. He merely felt that it should an individuals free choice whether he worshipped as a Christian, a Jew, or whatever.
Or maybe they have a problem reconciling what the man who wrote the Declaration of Independance meant and their twisted version that they would like us to believe ?
The following quote seems quite explanatory (to me anyway):
"But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods or no God. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg." Jefferson, Notes on Virginia 1782
Like it or not, Texas School Board, Jefferson was instrumental in the development of our American form of government . To try and downplay that contribution to our society is to be remiss in your duties as an educational body.
And, back to me, and my lack of posting lately... screw it. I aint no nice guy after all.
