It is q...Daniel, this article is very nicely done.<br /><br />It is quite thought provoking, and a few of mine follow.<br /><br />The "humble mule" is indeed a hybrid. They are quite cantankerous and at times be extremely stubborn, and no amount of prodding and coaxing will produce any useful work.<br />Synonyms of muleheaded, muley and mulish nicely describe the hybrid system, that needs to be done away with. No amount of prodding and coaxing will ever produce anything useful. "The American mule, which has been flogged to death by senators, activists and crony capitalists" needs to be allowed to die, and not kept on life support hoping it will become a Mustang!<br /><br />Lets revive the real mustang!<br /><br />The symbol of the donkey party resulted from Andrew Jackson being called a Jackass.<br /><br />Jackass has 2 meanings:<br />1. A male ass (donkey)<br />2. A stupid person (fool)<br /><br />Since the donkey party has a jackass for a symbol, and it is full of fools, so "Jackass" fits nicely when describing them. Although some get really upset if you call them that, but most don't have a clue, just like their idol.<br /><br />Bill<br />P.S.<br />My first comment on any blog. I think I have met the rules except maybe starting a small fire. Any fire(s) flaring up SHOULD be directed to burying the mule and reviving the Mustang.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-50065224435680284992012-08-17T14:41:14.952-04:002012-08-17T14:41:14.952-04:00thank you, it was about timethank you, it was about timeDaniel Greenfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13575285186581875356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-48883192210436367622012-08-17T14:19:36.224-04:002012-08-17T14:19:36.224-04:00I love the new template:)

That leaves the overworked horse with only two options. It can either become a donkey and be fed and work without any say in what it is fed or how it works, or it can try to break free of the great socialist bone yard."<br /><br />This is a point that must be driven home in the minds of Americans by November. From the very beginning, Obama's economic policies have been deliberately, consciously designed to bankrupt and destroy this country, to prepare it for a Marxist takeover (with a little help from its Muslim activist friends, such as CAIR, ISNA, ICNA, et al.) of that "bone yard." Americans must grasp that the Obama administration has never been a "friend of the people," of the downtrodden, of the middle or of any other class. The beneficiaries of that destruction are irrelevant and the administration couldn't care less which industry it lavished money on; if not General Motors, then the steel industry, if we still had one. They must grasp that Obama and Company know that their policies will destroy, will not work, and that when they don't work, they hope to take the American people down the tubes with them. <br /><br />They must understand that wholesale collectivist policies such as Obama's have a vested interest in perpetuating poverty, dependency, and socialist largesse doled out to drudges working away in government workhouses. That was the intent of the Progressives as far back as the 19th century, when socialism began to be snuck into federal policies (e.g., the Sherman Antitrust Act) by a Congress that was beginning to be corrupted by its growing power to "manage" the economy and people's choices. <br /><br />Americans have seen firsthand the evil of third-gear, pedal-to-the-metal collectivism in action. And, as you note at the end of your fine column, they must choose to free themselves of it, or resign themselves to impoverished servitude. That choice will become evident in November.<br />Edward Clinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12160209827969614964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-42017604115593702902012-08-15T23:42:06.933-04:002012-08-15T23:42:06.933-04:00Nicely done, but I can tell you have never owned w...Nicely done, but I can tell you have never owned wild burros (a type of donkey). They are rather independent sorts who are allowed to roam free on ranches because they kill wolves, coyotes and feral dogs that bother the cattle. They are actually tougher than horses, can survive on little water and eat almost anything that grows. They are rather stubborn and not necessarily patient critters. I rather like seeing them out on the hill with the cattle, especially when the coyotes are howling. I cannot reconcile the donkey as the symbol of the Democratic party any more than I can respect the party itself. Nevertheless, I did enjoy wordplay and symbolism in the article and I like how you used them to advance your premise. I only hope that in that case, American horses prevail. <br />Elisheva Hannah Levinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16061377724926154037noreply@blogger.com
