    As I remember he got a lot of his support from German industrialists.

    You do not use the stick against your opposite number, but against the 1%. But before you use you show it to them by example. And the Rule of Law has become a joke, as Glenn Greenwald has so ably pointed out. I hope, in the end you are right, but, given the history of [...]

    Liberals can only win if the society they live in is democratic, at least in a representative sense, and if civility is largely respected. It can be argued that ours is basically neither. The right knows this and acts accordingly; it is why they have been so successful over the past 30 years. And it [...]

    That’s an old trick. There are a lot of them. And it’s been going on for a long, long time. I’m a retired wildlife biologist and ecologist, seen most of them and experienced some of them, up close and personal. Still, this is a new low.

    Removing the food table by the police seems a provocative act. I’m curious as to the origin of the order.

    It’s beginning to look as if revolution is our only choice.

    OWS is almost certainly doomed, unless it does think big, but it won’t. Perhaps it’s a good thing. The battle must be joined and, make no mistake, the Bloombergs of the world know this, as do the police – they are chomping at the bit. I hope that non-violence triumphs; it did in the Civil Rights movement. But the blacks sought no more than equal seating in the bus. This is much bigger – we want control of the bus. And that scares the hell out of the Bloombergs, and the Mellons and the rest of them.

    I would like to believe that you’re right. I personally am going to write in Bernie Sanders, but I think that the average Democrat is most likely going to pull the Democratic lever. Or not vote. The Republicans will be out in force and I suspect the result will be a really close election. At [...]

    Our immigration and temporary worker system needs a complete and fair overhaul before instituting the draconian system of enforcing current insanities by ICE.

    Don’t stay home. Vote third party or write in and send an unequivocal message to the Democrats. I’m writing in Bernie Sanders.

    Simmer down boys. If it gets to guns it’s too late. Hope it never comes to that.

    What this country needs is a prefrontal lobotomy. Perry and Bachmann, that’s the ticket!

    Is this what they used to call the ‘great game’? Upper middle class children playing in the Imperial Gardens. Le Carre and Graham Greene had it right. A pox on you all.

    Yes, that’s a definite possibility.
