Truth is often hard to swallow, so we rest in comfortable lies and delusions. — Dorothy Anne Seese

Well. Some of us do. The weaker, dumber ones. After all…

Any formal attack on ignorance is bound to fail because the masses are always ready to defend their most precious possession – their ignorance. — Hendrick Van Loon

See that everyday here on KB, don’t we tricky.

Its a dumbed-down version of Amos 5:10 for those who can’t cope with the King James Version

They hate him that rebuketh in the gate, and they abhor him that speaketh uprightly.

Just how arrogant will this govt. get?

Trade Minister Tim Groser has lashed out at public opposition to the Trans Pacific Partnership, saying he won’t let “anti-trade forces” stand in the way of the contentious deal.

Speaking to Southeast Asian and New Zealand entrepreneurs at a summit in Kuala Lumpur, he said resistance to the TPP was deeply ideological and extreme claims were being made, including that it would lead to the end of democracy.

“I mean, really?” Groser said. “It is a mixture of a set of deeply ideological opponents to the use of markets … [who] focus on trade liberalisation to express a deeply ideological view that is the antithesis of all countries’ practical experience over the last 40 years.”

Thousands of people took part in anti-TPP demonstrations across New Zealand this month.

==============================================
Sell out at any cost?

I need to be known as SIR Groser.

Let us see the fine print and a decent analysis of the benefits before you sign our lives away.

The face of another Muslim terrorist: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3210351/Blindfolded-barefoot-French-terror-train-gunman-led-court-surrounded-bulletproof-jacket-wearing-officers-just-hours-questioning-deadline-expires.html

El Khazzani, who was led into court blindfolded and barefoot, is expected to remain in custody and will eventually face a criminal trial for ‘attempted murders in relation to a terrorist enterprise’.
