A Tale To Awaken To

Progressive always repeat mistakes....Why???? Cause they cant believe they would EVER be wrong...Arrogance and stupidity is a dangerous mix.
 
Nobody destroys wealth like a republican.. Nobody even comes close.

Anybody remember Reagans "Star Wars"? How many billions did he flush down the toidy with that nonsense?

That's exactly right and one of the points I try to convey almost every day. The GOP NEVER takes responsibility for ANYTHING they do. The only difference between them and Ted Bundy is that they haven't been caught, prosecuted and executed. OK bad example... Ted was a republican in good standing before it was descovered he was a serial killer.

So very sorry.....
...you may feel slighted because the OP was written for educated people, people who recognize the Medici's, and Savonarola....
...and understand where it was aimed.


But, wait! I have one on the same theme, but possibly a bit easier for you to understand:

It’s about a guy with a magic flute, who tricked all the rats into following him…

“And ere three shrill notes the pipe uttered,
You heard as if an army muttered;
And the muttering grew to a grumbling;
And the grumbling grew to a mighty rumbling;
And out of the houses the rats came tumbling:

Great rats, small rats, lean rats, brawny rats,
Brown rats, black rats, grey rats, tawny rats,
Grave old plodders, gay young friskers,
Fathers, mothers, uncles, cousins,
Cocking tails and pricking whiskers,
Families by tens and dozens,

Brothers, sisters, husbands, wives --
Followed the Piper for their lives.
From street to street he piped, advancing,
And step for step, they followed, dancing,
Until they came to the river Weser
Wherein all plunged and perished…”
Pied Piper of Hameln


See what I’ve done for you….because I like you!

LOL....the cut and paste princess talking about educated people

Tell us another
 
1. Rather than a bed-time story.....this one is a wake-up tale....
...from history.


2. Once upon a time, long ago and far away, in a beautiful place....one that was the envy of the world....

...there were still folks...as is the wont of human nature....who where unhappy with their lot.


3. They saw folks who were better off than they were, and cried 'why not me?'


4. Along came a reformer who claimed to offer 'hope and change'....not the first such charlatan....there have been tons of 'em.

5.He championed a kind of redistribution....
Actually, a kind of nihilist redistribution: Take away wealth...and burn it!

a. He sided with another nation over his own! Imagine that?

6. Anyway....he wound up in a confrontation with the establishment...
...and the polls even had him ahead for a time!

7. Sadly....it didn't work out for him.


8. September 21, 1452 Girolamo Savanarola born.

This Dominican reformer and zealot instituted strict rules in Florence.

February 27, 1497 Savonarola collected symbols of luxury and riches,
and threw them into “The Bonfires of the Vanities.”

9. He made enemies, and was hung and burned May 23, 1498 In many ways the counterpoint to Lorenzo the Magnificent, his rise mirrored the fall of the Medici family. He sided with the French who conquered Florence, and enforced strict rules and sumptuary laws (the Bonfire of the Vanities).

10. His confrontation with Pope Alexander VI (whose children were Lucrezia and Cesare Borgia) tortured and hung Savonarola in the Piazza della Signoria, and burned his body in his own bonfire.
