We Have Come
to Bury Caesar
Brent Bozell Levels
Broadside Against Entire Republican Establishment

I
postulate that with some quibble room a person's character is
pretty much set by age 7. So it is a certainty that when an adult
tells a black lie, that person is a liar who cannot ever be trusted
with
telling the truth ever again, except maybe on the death bed. L
Brent Bozell understands that.

"John Boehner, Eric Cantor, and Kevin
McCarthy, you said all the right things to conservatives to propel the
GOP back to the majority and you to the top three leadership positions
in the House. You, like virtually every single other Republican elected
to Congress solemnly vowed to rid us of Obamacare, which you can do
simply by refusing to fund it. Why haven't you done so?" Bozell asked,
charging that the House GOP leadership has "done nothing for over two
years but give us excuses and more commitments that tomorrow, yes
tomorrow, you'll honor your promises." [full]

Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me
your ears;
I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him.
The evil that men do lives after them;
The good is oft interred with their bones;
So let it be with Caesar. The noble Brutus
Hath told you Caesar was ambitious:
If it were so, it was a grievous fault;
And grievously hath Caesar answer'd it. - Marc Antony's Funeral
Oration
On Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell, Bozell said,
"You ran, and won as a fiscal conservative. You leave punishing
Virginia with the largest tax increase in history. I wish we'd never
elected you. Do you have national aspirations? Sorry my friend, forget
them."
- On Karl Rove's efforts to begin working to
recruit primary candidates, Bozell warned "the last thing the GOP needs
is for the anti-conservative professional political consultant class
infecting its ranks. And the last thing we conservatives want is them
infiltrating ours.
A weak character will crumble when forced to choose it over
ambition. 10,000 words about
what is it then that causes us to continue electing liars and weak
character canker blossoms? Answer: Two possibilities
- We are a
nation too lazy to pay attention
- We are of
poor character ourselves
Aside:
 This
thought kind of startles me too. If all elected Democrats are liars,
and they manifestly are, the lone person with any honesty is
Obama. Think about it. He is an unwavering socialist
doctrinaire whose speeches—available for all to view on YouTube— have
seen him unwaveringly promise to destroy the coal industry, impose a
socialist state, pay reparations for slavery, including
appointing a court with like minded people, etc. Having thus
staked out his vision, he has no problem with telling the lies and
falsehoods necessary to achieve his goals. No different than
Lenin and Stalin; or Hitler and Satan.

Aside: Is that also called the devil in the details?
ReplyDeleteBut...but...but you guys all told me I had to vote for all the GOP candidates because otherwise, well, otherwise we'd get gay marriage, and amnesty, and Obummercare, a weak supreme court and lying sacks'o'crap in high places in our government!
ReplyDelete… a person's character is pretty much set by age 7.
ReplyDeleteNonsense. My aim is steadier, my pastries are flakier, and I can swim at least twice as far underwater. It's like I'm a completely different person.
And at age 7, I had never met a Democrat, so I didn't hate them.
Helly,
ReplyDeleteThose aren't about character - just acquired and perfected skills.
Except the last. That one does speak to character. And I infer there was an unspoken "yet" at the end of the sentence??
