    The only thing necessary for evil to win is having good men do nothing about it. I believe this is a quote from Edmund Burke.

    When my kids are eFing up I usually get my wallet out , shake it at them and say " PAY ATTENTION,,, you'll never go broke paying attention !!!!" And then proceed to tell them what their doing wrong . Or I'll say it when I'm trying to teach them something.

    My Dads response to "IF"....

    IF a frog had wings he wouldn't bump his a$$ every time he jumped.

    I've told my kids that a thousand times.

    I'm in no way endorsing the author of the quote below but it is a very insightful quote that's held true throughout history and it came to mind due to our current election....

    "How fortunate for leaders that men do not think."

    -Adolf Hitler

    There's no smiling emoticon that actually takes the entire screen so this is the next best thing to show how I feel about your post.
