For many years on arab forum...I've been stupid. For many years on arab forums I have argued with them that they don;t have the slightest work ethic when it comes to translating actual fact, historic and present into opinion.<br /><br />All any american has to do is google Jefferson Slavery and warts and all you can see Jefferson writing against slavery as early as 1743.<br /><br />How many smokers wish not only that they never took it up, but that there was a way they could prevent others from becoming dependent on it's evil effects?<br /><br />In 1806 as 3rd pres. Jefferson sent to congress, got passed and signed the law which ENDED the slave trade.<br /><br />ETC. the work of 2 minutes to have the intellectual curiosity to think critically and act on it with all the effort of FINGERTIPS.<br /><br />But that google doesn't happen out there. Americans are no different than their arab pals who believe all the palestinians were driven out of Israel by jews whose allegiance to that religion was the result of a fake mass conversion by the Khazars. Or that americans surgeons were taking the organs of murdered and raped Iraqis for rich corporate executives.<br /><br />Qualitatively there is no difference between acceptance of those stupid stories and the idea that the old white guys gave existence to an 'evil at birth' landed slavocracy whose consitution cared nothing for slavery.<br /><br />But the TRUTH is that at the very WORST CASE we can say they understood PRECISELY the engine they had started, and that while they realized that POLITICALLY they could not abolish slavery in 1789 AND have a nation, they refused to make the perfect the enemy of the good.<br /><br />What's the difference, anyway? What they created sacrificed a million people to end it.<br /><br />Yet in the political rush to ensure (frankly) that any FEMALE CONSERVATIVE is ridiculed as a stupid bitch, the basic work WHICH SHOULD BE THE FOUNDATION OF ANY REPORTER'S FIRST MOTION OF THE INDEX FINGER, the PROFESSIONAL effort is second to the dialectic of progressive guilt avoidance and prozac/celexa/zoloft ingestion.<br /><br />Americans are as lazy to find the truth themselves as the arab idiots who swallow whole the fables they so readily consume?<br /><br />Why if that were true we would have the govt we deserve.<br /><br />;)Epaminondashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04811906954763827459noreply@blogger.com
