“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. 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

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

For those not accustomed to writing on a blackboard or easel, it's easy to get hung up on stupid typos.

C'mon, folks.   :whatever:

I look forward to watching each one of his picks to drop like flies in a cloud of Black Flag.  His track record thus far is worse than the "SI Cover Jinx".
