Back on Wednesday, July 29, 2009, I posted a blog bit titled #1 RULE OF POLITICS. It was filled with truth, but it was also very lengthy. It opened with a parable I had written which I have decided to publish as a stand-alone blog bit, minus all the other lengthy truth that followed it in its original form.
I realize
that the parable seems annoyingly repetitive, but that’s actually part of the
point it is making. If you hang in there long enough, you will discover that
like ALL Merry-Go-Rounds, it too will eventually stop.
Here you
go, my parable about ‘Political Reality, U.S.A.’

THE BONES OF PATRIOTS PAST
(Or, ‘The Socialists Who Cried Conservative’)
(Or, ‘The Socialists Who Cried Conservative’)
Once upon a time,
there was a number of conservative Americans. When the conservative people saw
how Socialists (read: “Marxists”) calling themselves “Democrats” or “Liberals”
had stolen their liberties guaranteed to them by the Bill of Rights and, like
dogs, had pissed all over the U.S. Constitution, they knew something had to be
done.
Then a group of
politicians calling themselves “Republicans” said, “We have seen the
destruction done by the Democrats. Like you, we are political conservatives,
and if you vote us into authority, we will reverse the damage done by the
Democrats. We will reduce the size of government, we'll cut federal spending,
and we'll return your individual rights to you and honor your individual
state’s right to govern itself.” And the Republican media pundits said, “Yes!
Protect the Constitution by voting Republican, and things will improve!”
So, the
conservative people voted Republicans into power. And the Republicans stole the
liberties guaranteed to The People by the Bill of Rights and, like dogs, they
pissed all over the U.S. Constitution.
So, in the next
election, the majority of people voted the Republicans out and the Democrats
back in. And the Democrats stole the liberties guaranteed to The People by the
Bill of Rights and, like dogs, they pissed all over the U.S. Constitution. The
conservative Americans knew something had to be done.
Then the group of
politicians calling themselves “Republicans” said, “We agree with you
conservative Americans. If you vote us into authority, we will undo what the
Democrats have done. We'll reduce the size of government, cut federal spending,
return your individual rights to you and honor your individual state’s right to
govern itself.” And the Republican media pundits said, “Yes! Protect the
Constitution by voting Republican, and things will improve!”
So, the
conservatives voted the Republicans back in again. And the Republicans stole
the liberties guaranteed to The People by the Bill of Rights and, like dogs,
they pissed all over the U.S. Constitution.
So, a majority of
The People became disgusted and brought the Democrats back into power, and the
Democrats stole the liberties guaranteed to The People by the Bill of Rights
and, like dogs, they pissed all over the U.S. Constitution. The conservative
Americans were angry and they said, “Doggone it! Something MUST be done
about this terrible situation. Our country is being destroyed!”
And the group of
politicians calling themselves “Republicans” said, “We agree with you
conservative Americans. If you vote us into authority, we will undo what the
Democrats have done. We'll reduce the size of government, cut federal spending,
return your individual rights to you and honor your individual state’s right to
govern itself.” And the Republican media pundits said, “Yes! Protect the
Constitution by voting Republican, and things will improve!”
And the
conservative Americans dug up the graves of George Mason and Thomas Jefferson
and they beat the Republican politicians and the Republican media pundits to
death with the bones of patriots past.
The moral of this
story is: Beware of Socialists in Republican clothing.

anyone you think might be able to understand and appreciate it.]
