Well it finally happened, Save Jerseyans. The light has gone out of my life. The sun stopped shining.
Food? No taste…
The leading tweeter in American politics has blocked your Blogger-in-Chief on Twitter:
What did I say??? Was it this?
Sometimes all we’re left with is the questions when the love is gone…
But we know New Jersey’s junior senator likes to talk a lot about how love, tolerance, post-partisanship and other warm-and-fuzzy stuff when he’s not blocking constituents from his Twitter account without justification. At least Ray Lesniak (who also blocked me) is consistently nasty! He typically communicates those sentiments in the form of quotations. Authors, playwrights, Winnie the Pooh, etc.
So maybe we can get through to him with some quotes of my own:
(1) “Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear.”
― Harry S. Truman
(2) “One has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws.”
― Martin Luther King Jr.
(3) “It is the first responsibility of every citizen to question authority.”
― Benjamin Franklin
(4) “Few people are capable of expressing with equanimity opinions which differ from the prejudices of their social enviroment. Most people are incapable of forming such opinions.”
― Albert Einstein
(5) “The duty of youth is to challenge corruption.”
― Kurt Cobain
(6) “If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse, and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality.”
― Desmond Tutu
(7) “I do this real moron thing, and it’s called thinking. And apparently I’m not a very good American because I like to form my own opinions.”
― George Carlin
(8) “Never be afraid to raise your voice for honesty and truth and compassion against injustice and lying and greed. If people all over the world…would do this, it would change the earth.”
― William Faulkner
(9) “It is dangerous to be right in matters on which the established authorities are wrong.”
― Voltaire
(10) “Nothing strengthens authority so much as silence.”
― Leonardo da Vinci

Benjamin Franklin was a hippie.
Consider it a badge of honor!!
He’s a sissy!
Don’t care for him
He blocked you because you were a nuisance who wasn’t interested to getting any real answers to questions. You just got off on being obnoxious.
Shouldn’t be blocked but there are examples of RWNJ’s doing the same.
