  • The Reagan Movie

    From W5jsn@VERT/TUCUMCAR to All on Saturday, August 31, 2024 19:53:04
    The daughter of God and I watched the Reagan movie today. Enjoyed it very much.

    It does make one think, after the Soviet Union fell (which the movie attributed to Reagan), did all of the die-hard communists immigrate to the USA and become SJW leftists? or are they just a bunch of American-born "free grub" junkies?

    The theory is that, back when Krushev threatened the West -- "We will bury you!" -- he didn't mean through war but rather through infiltration of our institutions, and our educational institutions in particular.

    If that is the case, when the USSR fell, that infiltration would have
    already been in full swing. Some of the people preaching the "good news"
    of communism/anti-capitalism by that point might not have even realized they were influenced by infiltrators.

    That could all be hogwash but if you look at how far left we've turned over
    the past 50 years, it makes sense.

    P.S. I visited Tucumcari about this time last year. Stayed at the Blue Swallow for an evening on my way west. It was storming pretty bad when I
    got there, so I didn't get to do much sight-seeing before it got late. It looked like a place with a lot of US 66 history, though.

    I have lived in Tucumcari for, on and off, 25 years and I have only been to the Blue Swallow office once to do some work for the lady who owned it for so many years. She never changed the price after she paid it off in the 1950's and it was still $29/night back then, though I think plenty of people took pictures, not too many folks actually stayed the night back then - not just retro but still decorated last in the 50s! I don't know if more recent owners did upgrades or not.

    I just was a bit more inspired by people like Reagan than I am today in American Leadership. I like Trump as the successful man that is working to serve our country, he certainly isn't doing it for the money - it would be far easier just to go back to being a real estate tycoon and enjoy himself, but he is fighting like a champion. I like that.

    A seemingly growing number of Americans would like to abolish the Constitution and install something more socialistic. It would certainly be easier, but I am not a fan of breadlines and authorities getting into my affairs "for the good of society". Liberty is rougher but I prefer it.

    Part of their charm these days is keeping everything as close to original
    as possible (while also keeping it functional) and with some new stuff like flat screen TV added. I enjoyed my short stay. There were a lot of folks
    that were stopping to take pictures (when it wasn't storming).

I like that.

    I also found our past leadership more inspiring. Most of today's crop are rather uninspiring or, if they do inspire, they are inspiring dislike.

    Me also. The government is not your parent.
