History Repeats by Dr T
Poor old Helen Thomas, forced to resign after an eternity at the Hearst News Service because of a hateful mouthing off against Jews. Had she only kept her tongue a few months longer, she may not have had to resign at all.
You see, history repeats itself...and we are currently witnessing a wave of anti-Semitism. Most of the world scolded Israel for its attack on the "peace-filled" (ahem) flotilla last week. Ah, Helen, you just needed to wait a tad longer. No matter that Hamas is running the show in Palestine, no matter that these flotillas are instruments of subterfuge, boasting payloads of food and clothing when in reality they are floating arsenals.
No matter that Israel is a sitting duck if Iran is allowed to continue sending arms to their enemies. And worst of all, our administration remains non-committal. A true slap in the face to a country that at one time was our closest ally.
Funny how history repeats....actually it's quite easy when true history isn't taught. There are those who would have you believe that our current economic situation is the result of capitalism run amok. That the only way to save us is through stateism. Why, the government needs to step in to save us from ourselves. To control the evil Jew bankers, the evil car companies, the insurance companies, heck, even the evil food industry. The real truth is that markets ebb and flow, just like the warming and cooling of the earth(global warming..another farce). The government, through intervention, upsets the natural correction that occurs when markets downturn. Had they minded their own business, we would have been out of the worst of this mess by now. And all the stimulus in the world hasn't corrected a thing. Billions of taxpayer dollars wasted and the only jobs created are in the public sector.
Wake up people...get a copy of "The Road to Serfdom"...educate yourselves before it's too late.
