Do you agree?

Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as:
Knowing when to come in out of the rain;
Why the early bird gets the worm;
Life isn't always fair;
and Maybe it was my fault.

Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more than you can earn)and reliable strategies (adults, not children, are in charge).

His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well-intentioned but overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a 6 -year- old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for using mouthw ash after lunch; and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition. Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job that they themselves had failed to do in disciplining their unruly children. It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent to administer Tylenol, sun lotion or a band-aid to a student; but could not inform parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion. Common Sense lost the will to live as the Ten Commandments became contraband; churches became businesses; and criminals received better treatment than their victims.

Common Sense took a beating when you couldn't defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar could sue you for assault. Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her lap, and was promptly awarded a huge settlement.

Common Sense was preceded in death by his parents , Truth and Trust; his wife, Discretion; his daughter, Responsibility; and his son, Reason. He is survived by his 3 stepbrothers; I Know My Rights, Someone Else Is To Blame, and I'm A Victim. Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone....

I wholeheartedly agree! America has been so dumbed down that it is frightening. People believe anything they see or hear on T.V. and in liberal college classrooms. They don't stop to think for themselves but are more or less just being brainwashed. I feel so sorry for our future generation because if common sense isn't revived, then the future of our Country is grim.

You can all thank the American Civil Liberties Union for the death of common sense.

Agreed! :D

This is lame. Not all common sense is gone. God.

haha ok

Yes !LOL

Wow I never thought of it that way... I totally agree!

ooooh yeah ..... you wrote down exactly what I feel too - well done.

Though there many flaws in our system of politics's, teaching,
religion, and medicine, etc.
Many of our forefathers who fought and died for our rights's to
even know what common sense is.
Common sense is buried in the heart of the unknown soldier
at Arlington National Cemetery.
Thank you so much, for waking other people up. *****======
