Barbarians

"Civilization is unnatural, it is a whim of circumstance, and barbarism must always ultimately triumph" Robert E. Howard.

Barbarian according to Wikipedia.

"A barbarian is an uncivilized person....."


There are lots of "Barbarians" around these days and they don't dress like these guys in the Capital One commercial. Most of them are wearing three piece suits, people like Grover Norquist, Dick Armey, et al...... Grover Norquist is definitely a barbarian, he has boasted that he wants to reduce government to the size where he can drown it in a bathtub!! He is talking about destroying government as we know it. (If that isn't barbarism, I don't know what is!!) Also you have Dick Armey and who knows how many other rich barbarians (here's one) funding things like the Tea Bag Express and other Tea-Baggers. Deluding all those poor bastards into working against their own interests by telling them they are working to return life to the way it was in the 50's TV shows. (Hey Folks, that was fiction created in the place you Tea-Baggers hate, Hollywood!! It never happened and never will!!)

I also include in this group all those who don't want to pay any taxes.
Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr once said:
"Taxes are the price we pay for a civilized society."
All those who claim they shouldn't have to pay any taxes are barbarians regardless of where they fall on the income scale!!
