"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
