Only in America can a homeless man have a laptop and blog.

Maybe he's a prophet, showing us how we'll all be living after 4 years of our Dear Leader's reign.

I like what he's done with the bedroom....and that one shopping cart garage will add value if he ever sells the place.

But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948
