quote for the day

from Lewis H. Lapham of Harper's Magazine, by way of Marxmail, by way of Ran Prieur.
"But I venture the challenging statement that if American democracy ceases to move forward as a living force, seeking day and night by peaceful means to better the lot of our citizens, then Fascism and Communism, aided, unconsciously perhaps, by old-line Tory Republicanism, will grow in strength in our land."

-‑Franklin D. Roosevelt, November 4, 1938

I love it, lately when I read your posts, I am confused about where you are going, who's eye you are trying to poke out.If you are pissing everyone off, me thinks you are doing a smashing job. But dear god, do not take any advice from me.
