Two-hundred and fifteen years ago, the French performed a dress rehearsal for the twentieth century. Like the Communists, the French Jacobins engaged in class warfare, attacked Christianity, and violently exported their revolutionary ambitions to neighboring countries. Thinking people don't celebrate Bastille Day. They mourn it. What started out as "liberty, equality, and fraternity," recognized Nicolas de Chamfort, quickly transformed into "Be my brother or I will kill you."

"Be my brother or I will kill you" could be the motto of the Democratic Party.

Blindly agree of die. No debate, baby.

Be my brother or I will kill you reminds me of a Jim Croce song from the early 70s, "Which Way Are You Going?" The closest thing he ever did to a protest song.

Just a line or two from that song....

"So now you turn your back on all the things that you used to preach. Now it's 'let him live in freedom' if he lives like me..."

Be well,

Sponge

And were marching to Bastille Day......All i think of is a great RUSH song when i think of that!!!

Ah yes. Bastille Day. Isn't this the French holiday when all the surviving French soldiers are remembered and they parade through their local cities and towns.......WITH THIER HANDS UP. Because we all know that is what they do best.
