Dwaz, Louisville is not the only blue city in Kentucky, but it is by far the largest. Lexington, it can be argued, is even bluer than Louisville because it’s smaller and is essentially a college town – University of Kentucky. And then there’s Frankfort, the seat of the state government. It’s tiny compared to the other two, but need I say more?

I was born and raised in Louisville, but as an adult, I moved out. Big difference. I actually have county government that works and representatives that represent *me* in both the state and federal legislature.

This rarefied class does also have some white members; Hillary Clinton comes to mind; but whites have to “earn” their way in. And if the Durham investigation indicts many folks, and basically nothing happens to them (IMHO a 98% chance of this), they too, the “walk-ees” will be inducted into the super-anointed-above-the-law elite class.

There are two races of men in this world…

There are only two kinds of people in the end…

From RAH (pbuh):

The human race divides politically into those who want people to be controlled and those who have no such desire. The former are idealists acting from highest motives for the greatest good of the greatest number. The latter are surly curmudgeons, suspicious and lacking in altruism. But they are more comfortable neighbors than the other sort.

GB and Mike-SMO – unfortunately, evil does seem to be part of the human heart. Our job is to overcome that part and to create a society where overcoming that part is normal and even rewarded. Steve can speak for himself, but I didn’t read his comment as singling out Germans as having a uniquely evil heart. Rather, there were Jews at the start of Hitler’s rise who couldn’t imagine that a “civilized” culture capable of producing Handel could also be capable of producing incredibly UNcivilized behavior – which of course they were.

“How wrong were the Jews for thinking a people who could develop Handel were civilized.”

I too once thought that there might be something corrupt in the German soul. But events in among others, the US, Australia, Austria, Canada and New Zealand have persuaded me that no society is immune from hate’s corruption.

“There are two races of men in this world, but only these two — the “race” of the decent man and the “race” of the indecent man. Both are found everywhere; they penetrate into all groups of society. No group consists entirely of decent or indecent people.” Viktor E. Frankl, reflecting upon the holocaust

“There are only two kinds of people in the end: those who say to God, “Thy will be done,” and those to whom God says, in the end, “Thy will be done.” All that are in Hell, choose it. Without that self-choice there could be no Hell.” C.S. Lewis

It’s a sad and depressing fact you are probably right.

It was a vintage shirt. A collectible. 🙂
