If I Were The Devil 

"If I Were The Devil" was a radio broadcast from 1965 by Paul Harvey, who was a radio broadcaster famous for his "The Rest Of The Story" segments.

If I Were The Devil is noted for being almost prophetic to the current condition of the United States several decades later, from its political wars to its surging crime, particularly amongst the youth, as well as the ideologies and its general path towards destruction. Removing God from the schoolhouse, advising against "extremes" in Patriotism, hard work, and moral conduct... it's all happening.

Dislike this if you want, but you can't ignore the truth in his warning speech forever... I don't expect this to get through to many, if any, on the Left, but I can only hope and pray it will.

IF I, WERE THE DEVIL.

If I were the devil... if I were the Prince of Darkness, I'd want to engulf the whole world in darkness, and I'd have a third of its real estate and four-fifths of its population, but I wouldn't be happy until I had seized the ripest apple on the tree...

Thee.

Those were the days 

phrase used when you reminisce about the "good old days" when life was easy. Even more fun if you make it a song like Edith and Archie Bunker did in the "All in the Family" opening.

Boy the way Glen Miller played
songs that made the hit parade.
Guys like us, we had it made.
Those were the days!
And you knew who you were then.
Girls were girls, and men were men.
Mister, we could use a man Herbert Hoover again.
Didn't need no welfare state.
Everybody pulled his weight.
Gee our old LaSalle ran great.
Those were the Days!
