There was a marvelous book about a US lady who ordered books from a bookstore in England. She kept the people who worked at the store in basic food supplies like eggs, meat, and sugar after the war. I'll have to keep a watch out for that book. My library is throwing all of this kind of books out. Yesterday, I saw that they had dumped all ethnic cookbooks, all crafts, sewing and the science books about birds. Last week they had dumped all the Old West fiction books. All of them. /BAH

You were talking about freedoms. Do you mean the >freedom from Food coupons was suspended? I consider being told what I can buy and when I can buy it a loss of choice. Freedom involves each individual making choices and coping with the consequences of those choices. /BAH

There won't be any. It will be a gradual change of mindset over the years. To achieve this, those who have the goal to destroy Western civilization have to be kept from achieving it. I suggest that you listen to Bush's speech. He explained all of this but nobody seems to have heard it in their zeal to "defeat" Bush by ceding to the Islamic terrorists. /BAH |
