I missed out on most of this excellent Piggsfest, but feel compelled to add my two cents to the Upton Sinclair/Sinclair Lewis admiration expressed here (Allan, I should have know that there was a literary reason behind the fact that you make me hot.)

Eaves: Why the hell am I always AWAY when you post stuff like this? Crap.
Seriously, though, enjoyed your post. Funny how both Upton Sinclair (“The Jungle”) and Sinclair Lewis (“It Can’t Happen Here”) both remain readable and relevant. The more things change, eh?
As far as Beck goes: Go riddance to bad rubbish. Yeah, when you start making Limbaugh and Fox look moderate… Wow.
