Yeah, me too. Big-time. Bad economy opens the door to mob democracy and populism. And eventually war. What’s that Lewis quote? When facism comes to America it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross.
The mistake is thinking it’s a ‘leftist’ mob. It’s been fermenting on the right for a couple of decades now, aided and abetted by right-wing opinion makers and politicians — truly anti-American.
Real republicans are starting to realize this too, and seem to be stepping in to keep the wheels from coming off the bus. Establishment is finally reading the tea leaves. McCain campaign crowds last week were just remarkable.
Let us all take care, respect our history and traditions. Hard times ahead and we’re in the midst of a political war with extremists within our own country. May the moderates prevail.
