Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape.
He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as:
- Knowing when to come in out of the rain,
- Why the early bird gets the worm,
- Life isn't always fair, and
- Maybe it was my fault.
Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies, don't spend more than you can earn and adults, not children, are in charge.
His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well-intentioned but overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a 6-year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate, teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition.
Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job that they themselves had failed to do in disciplining their unruly children. It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent to administer sun lotion or an aspirin to a student, but could not inform parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion.
Common Sense lost the will to live as the churches became businesses and criminals received better treatment than their victims. Common Sense took a beating when you couldn't defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar could sue you for assault.
Common Sense finally gave up the will to live after a woman failed to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her lap, and was promptly awarded a huge settlement.
Common Sense was preceded in death by his parents, Truth and Trust, by his wife Discretion, his daughter Responsibility, and his son, Reason. He is survived by his 4 stepbrothers: I Know My Rights, I Want It Now, Someone Else Is To Blame and I'm A Victim.
Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone.
If you still remember him, pass this on. If not, do nothing.

The Netherlands are a member of the European Union which is becoming increasingly totalitarian. Democracy leads to socialism and socialism leads to a totalitarian state. The average lifetime of a democracy is roughly 200 years. The Dutch democracy has reached that age...

Your tax dollars at work...
This is very illustrative of how the media are trying to destroy Western Values. While this video is about American taxdollars at work to enslave the (involuntary) payers of those taxdollars into islamic submission, this is all too common around the Western world. The Frankfort School program continues.

The Criminal Truth
The latest Pat Condell video is a very important one. Pat clearly explains what the Main Stream Media do not want to address, and that's how the peoples of the Western culture are being sold out to islam by making the truth a crime. Once upon a time, treason was punishable by death. These days, the traitors are applauded by their peers, leaving their subjects to pay the price, at gunpoint.
This is what you get when cowardly power-mongers assume the power & violence monopoly of the state. Honest and honorable citizens have no fighting chance defending themselves against these thugs. It may require a people's uproar like currently is taking place in the islamic world; unfortunately, those will ensure the Muslim Brotherhood will assume power, and all those people now burning the streets and looting the shops will find themselves in vessel states of Iran before they realize it, and possibly be longing for times gone by very soon.
I wish I could say: "Enjoy Pat's latest", but there's precious little to enjoy. However, this video is a must see for anyone who still values what's been left of our culture and freedom. Dear reader, I present you Pat Condell's The Criminal Truth. Peace.

The Left openly drops all pretense
Today the Dismissal-court, headed by 'impartial' Left-wing 'judge' F. Bauduin, has confirmed the use of plural in the headline of my previous article: we indeed have Kangaroo Courts in The Netherlands: it has denied the appeal for dismissal by Mr. Moszkowicz. Geert Wilders' judge may have used some 'unfortunate choice of words' but he was 'in no terms prejuduced'.
Says Bauduin, member of (a.o.) the Morocco Fund, in which his name is one of only two Dutch ones. Looking at the list of his 'other activities' (thanks, Artikel7) it quickly becomes clear he is no friend of Geert Wilders' PVV, but prejudiced himself, so he should have stepped aside instead of heading the dismissal court.
As it is, one 'impartial' (quod non) left-wing 'judge' judges another 'impartial' (quod non) left-wing judge to be impartial, only because that other 'impartial' (quod non) left-wing judge himself claims, after showing prejudice, to be impartial. One would think that the choice of Morocco loving Bauduin as dismissal-judge is a rather 'unfortunate choice of judge' given the fact that Wilders' case touches on the issues The Netherlands have with problematic Moroccan youth...
Well, at least it becomes clearer day by day what a circus the Dutch ' justice' system really is. First, we have an unprofessional judge who lets his personal bias against Wilders prevail in his job. Then, the justice minister himself appears to have had a part in the decision to prosecute Wilders. And now we have another unprofessional, Morocco-loving judge, who 'impartially' decides that the biased judge is impartial. What's next?
These are interesting times (remember Confucius).
