[QUOTE="Son of Butch, post: 1665655, member: 14585"] It's what American society as a whole has become, sound bites over substance. Where's the beef? Read my lips. If the glove doesn't fit you must acquit. Change. Lock her up. Murderous insurrection. Crying and cowering. I was embarrassed for our Senators when the prosecutors and news media depicted senators as crying and cowering behind tables or wherever they could seek cover for a reason to impeach, because their fear was real. I thought of President Andrew Jackson and wondered, no brave statesmen? Jackson 67 leaving the eastside of the Capital Building in 1835 when 34 yr old Richard Lawrence stepped out from behind a pillar with a pistol to shoot him in the back. The pistol misfired. Jackson turned to face him as Lawrence pulled a 2nd pistol which also misfired and Jackson beat him with a cane, until Davy Crockett and others restrained and disarmed Lawrence. Perception becomes our reality. I was Outraged when I heard a police officer was beaten to death. Now I wonder how much else was exaggerated. [/QUOTE]
