Stop to think

"A mind is a terrible thing to waste," and deliberately blighting it with perversions of American history equates with criminality. This evil takes place in our public schools. Minds are indoctrinated with revisions that promote political correctness and collective guilt. Liberal politics accounts for this waste. I offer an anecdote employing humor in the ugly vein of a hero of the progressive left, Lenny Bruce. Former President Clinton was scheduled speak at an assembly locally to campaign for his wife yesterday. Liberal Democrats waxed poetic in anticipation. They bent over backwards to suck up to the ‘...hole.’ Of course, to liberals, reality appears as a reversal of truth. A reporter ended his exhortation to the public to attend the speech and rally with the words "keep your nose clean." He knew not how accurately he spoke. When liberals kiss up to socialistic liberalism, the Devil cleverly reconfigures twin buttocks into twin moons and supporters rally round the enlightened cause.

Seriously, it’s scarey that Hellary Clinton and her opponent, Barak Obama, want to force Americans to collectively change. The crazy, depressing 19th century philosopher Soren Kierkegaard who might have philosophically wrestled himself to death at age 42, wrote this:

"The more the collective idea comes to dominate even the ordinary consciousness the more forbidding seems the transition to becoming a particular, existing human being instead of losing oneself in the race, and saying, ‘we, our age, the nineteenth century.’ That it is a little thing merely to be a particular existing human being is not to be denied; but for this very reason it requires considerable resignation not to make light of it. For what does a mere individual count for? Our age knows only too well how little it is, but here also lies the specific immorality of the age. Each age has its own characteristic depravity. Ours is perhaps not pleasure or indulgence of sensuality, but rather a dissolute pantheistic contempt for the individual man... Everything must attach itself so as to be a part of some movement; men are determined to lose themselves in the totality of things, in world history, fascinated and deceived by a magic witchery; no one wants to be a individual human being."

As the title of Kierkegaard’s great work suggests, America’s present decision is Either/Or . Either we decide to abandon our individuality and minds to the rhetoric and socialist cause of Obama in the hope of a changed America or we stop and think.
