foarte interesanta postare si pe o tema care ma framanta si pe mine de la un timp… intotdeauna acest concept de political correctness mi s-a parut de o ipocrizie fara margini si un atac la libertatea individuala.

p.s. recomand tuturor celor care, daca nu pot scapa de tirania conceptului, pot macar sa rada de el cartea lui James Finn Garner, Politically Correct Bedtime Stories

Amanda, cometariul tau intrase initial la Pending datorita antivirusului, am rezolvat cu asta.

Multumim de recomandare dar ai citit postarea din octombrie Greierele si furnica – varianta contemporana?

It’s ok Francesco, colind blogurile de destul timp si nu ma sparie nici macar moderarea, nu sunt postac-injurac asa ca nu mi se intampla niciodata sa-mi fie banate comment-urile. De asemenea inteleg partea cu antivirusul.

Eu sunt mai noua pe la voi, am mai citit cate ceva acum cateva saptamani insa sunt un comentator lenes, lol. Apoi v-am redescoperit numai dupa ce m-ati invitat pe twitter. Insa ai dreptate, povestea din octombrie este exact pe pattern-ul la care ma gandeam si eu – am citit-o acum si iti multumesc, a fost haioasa si, dincolo de fabula, foarte apropiata de adevar.

Francesco, inteleg ce spui. Ar fi bine sa avem cite un fir de comentarii separat pe film. Ma gindesc si la asta, dar pentru un timp o sa ne descurcam aici. Uite asa imi dau teme de acasa

Ronald Wilson Reagan (February 6, 1911–
in memoriam,

June 5, 2004) was the 40th President of the United States (1981–1989) and the 33rd Governor of California (1967–1975). Prior to his political career Reagan was also a famous motion picture actor and president of the Screen Actors Guild.

You and I have a rendezvous with destiny. We will preserve for our children this, the last best hope of man on earth, or we will sentence them to take the first step into a thousand years of darkness. If we fail, at least let our children and our children’s children say of us we justified our brief moment here. We did all that could be done.

Ronald Reagan
40th president of US (1911 – 2004)

It’s not that Liberals are ignorant, it’s that they know so much that isn’t so. – Ronald Reagan

“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.“

Here’s my strategy on the Cold War: We win, they lose.”

“An economist is someone who sees something happen and wonders whether it would work in theory.”

“For forty years or more this country has been following the lute song of the liberals. Suddenly, when they came undone with their planned economy, their deficit spending, and their deliberately planned inflation, which they said would maintain prosperity, how the hell do conservatives get blamed?”

“You know, I think the best social program is a job.”

“Our enemies may be irrational, even outright insane, driven by nationalism, religion, ethnicity, or ideology. They do not fear the United States for its diplomatic skills or the number of automobiles and software programs it produces. They respect only the firepower of our tanks, planes, and helicopter gunships.”

“The spectre our well-meaning liberal friends refuse to face is that their policy of accommodation is appeasement, and appeasement does not give you a choice between peace and war, only between fight and surrender.”

“We are told God is dead. Well, He isn’t. We just can’t talk to Him in the classroom anymore.”

But I wonder if those who doubt America have forgotten that just as in the lives of individuals so too in the lives of nations: it is always when things seem most unbearable—that we must have faith that America’s trials have meaning beyond our own understanding. (Reagan)

The inscription on his memorial, at the Reagan Library:

“I know in my heart that man is good, that what is right will always eventually triumph, and there is purpose and worth to each and every life.”

“We are the showcase of the future. And it is within our power to mold that future-this year and for decades to come. It can be as grand and as great as we make it,…No crisis is beyond the capacity of our people to solve; no challenge too great.”

Ronald Reagan

: Some people wonder all their lives if they’ve made a difference. The Marines don’t have that problem.
Ronald Reagan

“Recession is when your neighbor loses his job. Depression is when you lose yours. And recovery is when Jimmy Carter loses his.”

“I’ve noticed that everyone who is for abortion has already been born.”

“Trees cause more co2 and pollution than automobiles.”

“Government’s first duty is to protect the people, not run their lives.” — Ronald Wilson Reagan 1911-2004.

“Government is not the answer to our problems,government IS the problem.”

“We are being watched … watched by those all across this land who once again dare to believe that our concept of responsible, people-oriented government can work as the founding fathers meant it to work. If we prove that here, we can, as I have said before, start a prairie fire that can sweep across this country.

But to start that fire, we must nurture the flame here at home or it will flicker and die and those who come after us will find only the ashes of lost hopes and dead dreams.”

Address of Governor Ronald Reagan to California Republican Assembly

Lafayette Hotel, Long Beach

April 1, 1967

“I hope most of you are Republicans” — in the surgery suite following the assassination attempt.

My favorite — “Taking care of the poor is the job of the church, not the government”

“Hispanics are Republicans, they just don’t know it yet.” — RR was so right — I can certainly attest to this quote!

“Surround yourself with the best people you can find, delegate authoity, and don’t interfere.”

“If we will not be ‘One nation under God’ then we will be one nation gone under.” – Ronald Reagan

“This democracy of ours which sometimes we’ve treated so lightly, is more than ever a comfortable cloak, so let us not tear it asunder, for no man knows once it is destroyed where or when he will find its protective warmth again.”
Your America to be Free
1957
Commencement Address at Eureka College
Ronald Reagan

Now we are a nation of 211 million people with a pedigree that includes blood lines from every corner of the world. We have shed that American-melting-pot blood in every corner of the world, usually in defense of someone’s freedom. Those who remained of that remarkable band we call our Founding Fathers tied up some of the loose ends about a dozen years after the Revolution. It had been the first revolution in all man’s history that did not just exchange one set of rulers for another. This had been a philosophical revolution. The culmination of men’s dreams for 6,000 years were formalized with the Constitution, probably the most unique document ever drawn in the long history of man’s relation to man. I know there have been other constitutions, new ones are being drawn today by newly emerging nations. Most of them, even the one of the Soviet Union, contains many of the same guarantees as our own Constitution, and still there is a difference. The difference is so subtle that we often overlook it, but is is so great that it tells the whole story. Those other constitutions say, “Government grants you these rights” and ours says, “You are born with these rights, they are yours by the grace of God, and no government on earth can take them from you.”
