Last of the Summer Wine was one of my favorite shows. And, iirc, the longest running show of its kind on television (started in 1973 I think and ended in 2008). For those who may never have seen the show I would encourage you to check out some of the videos on youtube.
The last of the summer wine The blossom soon begins to fade A lonely bird high on a hill sings, Autumn's on its way
The memories of summers gone like passing shadows cross my mind Reflections of the yesterdays that made our summer wine
The misty haze of golden days when we were young That heady joy of finding love and love passing on
The last of the summer wine The sweet bouquet of memories when days were long and nights so warm I still remember these
We laughed and loved--maybe too well The best laid-plans of yours and mine got left behind, time went too fast Just like our summer wine
Though shadows grow longer now leaves start to fall I still feel the warmth of your touch But most of all, this cup of life of ours we drank
Now grapes are few upon the vine so let us toast the vintage years the last of our summer wine and always remember this, the promise that I made to you This summer wine of ours my love will last our whole lives through.
Liberty is not a means to a higher political end. It is itself the highest political end. Lord Acton
He (Gordon Duff) also implies that forcibly removing Obama, a Constitution-hating, on-the-down-low, crackhead Communist, is an attack on America, Mom, and apple pie. I swear these military people are worse than useless. Just look around at the condition of the country and tell me if they have fulfilled their oaths to protect the nation from all enemies foreign and domestic.
