    "Bandit",


    saw Ron Paul speak live yesterday twice...

    I think that he is "dropping out" or about to.

    pretty soon we'll have no one but Stupids running things
    if not we now have 'em here ... already !

    the more that we dumb-down everything the smarter the Stupids will look.

    This reminds me of the account of "The Taking of the Bastille July 14, 1789" that I came across in "Products of the Perfected Civilization: Selected writings of CHAMFORT" Translated and with an introduction by W. S. Merwin. North Point Press, San Francisco 1984
