re: #497 WindUpBird
rugged Individualism! What a joke. Rugged individualism with all the modern amenites… Electrical grid, internal plumbing, moden building materials, modern cars, modern roads, cell phones, internet, hi-def tv, 911, GPS, fire department, police… about as rugged as a Ruth’s Chris steakhouse. As rugged as the Four Seasons.
And yet, if you listen to Rush, Hannity, &c, it was rugged individualism that built this country. Total bullshit.
But there you go. Never underestimate the stupidity of the American people. It results in Tea Parties and the Right-wing Blogosphere
