“They saw their injured country's woe;
The flaming town, the wasted field;
Then rushed to meet the insulting foe;
They took the spear, - but left the shield.”
―Philip Freneau

And by a prudent flight and cunning save A life which valour could not, from the grave. A better buckler I can soon regain, But who can get another life again?

Trump and the Psychology Behind Today's "Progressive"...
Three cheers for Roger Scruton! I find nothing with which I could possibly disagree with in anything he said –– nor would want to try.
His manner however, is just a bit too prissy for my taste –– and I have been an avowed Anglophile of the Old School all my conscious life.
Perhaps I ought to be ashamed to admit it, since I've been schooled to be notably Upper Class, myself, but frankly I prefer the raw passion and colloquial-corner-bar-style directness of TOMMY ROBINSON to Mr. Scruton's rather effete brand of refinement, but I'll gladly take either –– or both.
I have come to believe that a person's character and moral worth may best be known by the ENEMIES he keeps.
I have become proud of thegrowing number of dirty sons of bitches, self-righteous prigs, fatuous mountebanls and out-and-out imbeciles who actively despise me. I wear their words of design and contempt like a breastplate of honor.
Scruton is absolutely correct about the underlying arrogance, conceit, cold-heartedness and innate viciousness that lie just beneath the surface of polite, decorous behavior motivated by the dictates of Poltical Correctness where only ONE WAY RUDENESS is acceptable.
Being perpetually "upset," outraged," "afftonted," "offended," "indignant," "accusatory," "ungrateful," and seething with a Rabid Desire always to FIND FAULT, NEGATE, MOCK, DERIDE, CONDEMN, PUNISH, and ELIMINATE are the things thlat DEFINE the Left.
That is ALL they know how to do. There is NOTHING ELSE they have got offer.
If you don't believe me, just look at the copious evidence exposing their bilious nature these pathetic, witless, humorless stumblebums leave at Blogstan's comments sections.

NEWSFLASH! JOHN McCAIN is DEAD and now The Hurricane of Hypocrisy and Fuillades of Fulsome Rhetoric Begin
The Establishment is in mourning... so they likely won't begin the fusillades until they plop him in his grave next week at Annapolis.
