Tyranny & The Passage of Time

By Chris Rossini


Obama should keep his chin up. After enough time passes, and Americans are fed up with their new Emperor (or Empress) he'll be looked upon favorably again.

Obama should just play some golf for a few years. Bush took up painting. It's all good.

Thomas Jefferson hit the nail on the head: "Mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed."

Patriot Act, NSA, TSA ball grabbers, militarized police...

Americans must be exceptionally "disposed to suffer".

How ironic.

  1. Just for the record, if the ball grabbers were supermodels I might be able to get on board with that.

    1. Nice....clad in skimpy bikinis would certainly make it even more appealing. :)

  2. Great post Chris. But its only ironic if you take the Bill of Rights literally. And few people seem to even know the Bill of Rights exists
