As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.
I found this quote about an American critic named Parkinson from the 18th century interesting.
Parkinson was an Englishman, of great narrowness of mind, who came out here to be a farmer, failed, and went home to write a book in denunciation of the country. America never had a more hostile critic.
According to this profound observer, there was no good land in America, and no possibility of successful agriculture. The horses were bad, the cattle were bad, and sheep-raising was impossible. There was no game, the fish and oysters were poor and watery, and no one could ever hope in this wretchedly barren land for either wealth or comfort.
It was a country fit only for the reception of convicts, and the cast-off mistress of an Englishman made a good wife for an American.
Henry Cabot Lodge
I wonder sometime why Providence does not smile on people and they take it personal in it must be an entire nation which is the problem as they possibly could not be.
That Obama creation in changing America into his dreams of Obama is a telling point. He could not be born American, so therefore there must be something wrong with America as he peered at it from his Indonesian nativity.
It is a fascinating psychopathy that with fertile lands of the occupation, myriads of the British existed as peasants and in poverty, when all they had to do was come to Canada, Australia, Africa or Amerida and fight for possession as the Pilgrims and Jamestown colonies did and success would come.
The amusement of all of this is Parkinson actually appeared with a letter of introduction at Mount Vernon and was with George Washington apparently with enough time to come to this conclusion.
"The general lent him money. He was at least grateful, and these are his last words as to Washington:
— "To me he appeared a mild, friendly man, in company rather reserved, in private speaking with candor. His behavior to me was such that I shall ever revere his name.
"General Washington lived a great man, and died the same.
"I am of opinion that the general never knowingly did anything wrong, but did to all men as he would they should do to him."
Henry Cabot Lodge
It is interesting that Parkinson while hating America with a passion, was a man who loved George Washington.
I do not believe I have ever heard Barack Hussein Obama ever say he was grateful to America, was thankful for any American or that upon meeting Teddy Kennedy he said that Ted had knowingly done anything wrong, and treated others as Teddy would expect to be treated.
