Notable quotes from West Pointโ€™s Commencement Address - Jun 13, 2020

 

6:15 The Invisible enemy, the new virus, that came to our shores from a distant land called China.

 

8:44 The survival of America, and the endurance of civilization itself, depends on the men and women just like each of you. Depends on people who love their country with all their heart, energy, and soul.

 

9:32 When times are turbulent, when the road is rough, what matters most is that which is permanent, timeless, enduring, and eternal.

 

12:00 They did it because they believe in the undying principles of our Founding.

 

(He absolved all cadets of minor offenses - is this something that is customary at commencement?)

 

12:50 We say Go Army, Go!

 

17:44 We need you to be as visionary as PATTON. (Interesting reference since last night's rally began with Patton)

 

19:27 He (MacArthur) then called up on the island's brave people to rise up and join the fight. American's momentum was unstoppable.

 

19:36 These great leaders were not afraid of what others might say about them. They didn't care. They knew their duty was to protect our country. They knew the army exists to preserve the Republic and the strong foundations upon which it stands. Family. God. Country. Liberty. And Justice.

 

20:13 Each of you begins your career in the Army at a crucial moment in American history. We are restoring the fundamental principles that the job of the American soldier is not to rebuild foreign nations, but defend, and defend strongly, Our nation from foreign enemies.

 

20:38 We are ending the Era of Endless Wars.

 

20:52 It is not the duty of US troops to solve ancient conflicts in faraway lands that many people have never even heard of. We are not the policemen of the world.

 

21:07 But let Our Enemies be on notice - If Our People are threatened, we will never, ever hesitate to act. And when we fight, from now on we will only fight to win.

 

26:58 And the survival of Our Nation still depends on the "Great Chain" reaching out from this place. One made not of iron, but of flesh and blood of memory and spirit of sheer faith and unyielding courage.

 

27:17 Today each of you becomes another link in that unbroken chain.

 

27:38 And now we are entrusting you with the most noble task any warrior has ever had the privilege to carry outโ€“the task of preserving American Liberty.

 

27:54 As long as you remain loyal, faithful, and trueโ€“then our enemies don't even stand a chance. Our rights will never be stolen, our freedoms will never be trampled, our destiny will never be denied and the United States of America will never be defeated. With the grace of God and the heroes of West Point, America will always prevail.

 

28:27 Nothing will stand in your way, nothing will slow you down, AND NOTHING WILL STOP THE WEST POINT CLASS OF 2020 FROM ACHIEVING A TRUE AND LASTING VICTORY.

 

Boom.

This is obviously just my personal opinion, but TRUMP is not GOD. Right? This vaccine thing is a way to force people to stop "trusting" him and think for themselves.

 

Of course, we trust him. We love Our POTUS. But we don't blindly follow ANYONE.

 

I don't care what the fuck Our POTUS says - if I don't agree with him, then I don't fucking agree with him.

 

If he says be peaceful, OK. I'm peaceful. But if ANTIFA is breaking down my door I'm shooting those assholes in the fucking chest the moment they enter my home.

 

Think for yourself. That's my takeaway.

There are only two places in the world that are completely and utterly mosquito-free: Antarctica and Iceland.

Dunno if it's true, but mosquitoes are basically everywhere. Even at high altitude where I live and there are no fleas or cockroaches here, but we still have teeny-tiny mosquitoes that bite the fuck out of you.

Maybe this why they can't go rescue people.

He's not in charge.

And he can't say - Hey, it's "them" who stranded people in Afghanistan, not me. Because then he'd have to admit that he's not in control of anything.
