A TALE OF TWO COUNTRIES

» by TXPoet in: FHK/General

Once upon a time, there was this big country we will call it X-land. In this country there were several ethnic groups and the rulers of X-land lived in a far away land. The country was united through a common language and religion.

The rulers decided to let a few people from another country immigrate. X-land needed immigrants so that the land could be used and few of the indigenous people of X-land had any desire to, but these immigrants brought with them a new language and new religions. The new immigrants then brought their family and friends into X-land. They were able to do this because there was no border security. Because the leaders of X-land were so distant they were slow to react.

The immigrants got together to resist the mandatory language of X-land and they started guerrilla actions against the people of X-land. Some of the X-land citizens joined with them and then it became open warfare. The immigrants won with assistance from their original country.

They formed a new land. It was a land where now they spoke their native language not the language of X-land. They could practice their religion and ceremonies, not the mandated religion and ceremonies of X-land.

This story is not a fairy tale and it is not the story about the current immigration problems facing America (but it could be). It is a basic story of the birth of Texas (some issues have been omitted.)

A country is destroyed faster by the enemy from within than by any armed invaders. ~ TXPoet

    Obama: America's Biggest Mistake Waiting to Be Made

    Understanding "the American Jewish" vote is a subject that simply makes me crazy. I understand that as families, and groups of peoples, we tend to vote as did those we grew up with, conversed often with, loved and respected...(Maggie's Notebook)

     

    An Interview With Kathleen Parker, Author Of "Save The Males"

    John: Now, the average left-wing feminist response to your book is probably akin to, "Ah, men have the advantage in every way. Why would anyone need to 'save the males?'" What would you say to that? Kathleen: You're exactly right. I get a lot of that and what they point out generally is that men head most of the corporations and men dominate in the Congress. While that is statistically true, what I try to do in Save the Males is show where our current trends are leading...(Right Wing News)

     

     

    I Demand...

    I demand the government make certain I have a roof over my head every day of my life, even if I have done nothing personally to earn it. I demand the government make certain I always have food to eat, even if I have sat on my ass and done nothing for it...I am today's youth...Are you listening? (Kenders' Musings)
