Pray that God does indeed “watch over fools, drunkards and the United States… “

Trenchant comment of the week:

Today both parties seem to subscribe to the notion that we have social problems — lack of medical insurance, bad education — that can be fixed by the Federal Government. The notion of local control and states rights, transparency and responsibility, the idea that the people most affected by policies ought to have some control (such as local school boards controlling both education and its finance) is pretty well considered ludicrous by nearly every academic intellectual and political leader in the nation. Fascism has prevailed, and we hardly notice it.

Yet the conservatives, who want to allow local control and to limit the power of the greater government to interfere in people’s lives, are thought to be the fascists. So it goes.

Yep. The Uniparty (call e’m Dhimmican’ts or Republocrats or whatever) is the modern Fascist Party in drag. Limp-wristed fascism. And so the dream of the Founders ends; not with a bang but a whimper. (With semi-sincere apologies to T.S. Eliot. ;-))

*sigh*
