Rule 5 Sunday

Posted on | May 30, 2010 | 36 Comments

by Smitty

Rule 5 Sunday salutes Gary Coleman and Dennis Hopper. May the Almighty rest their souls. Memorial Day is the other substantial occasion before us. The liberals are particularly amusing at times like this, as they pause from hating America to admiring actual courage to put action behind love of liberty. After the holiday, they can return to their typical America-hating, hating themselves and the country afresh for having paused in their hatred briefly to admire full, robust, mature American courage of a sort they cannot emulate, and must therefore hate.
But Rule 5 is about anything but hate.

    Thanks Lipton, but give those Arlington ladies the credit. And the service persons they are honoring. I found the link at Hot Air so give them a hat tip.

    As for MSNBC, even a blind pig finds a pecan every now and again.
