Does anyone else think this is the time for a new, national political party? - Plutocratic, Fascist Republicans - Milquetoast Democrats Where are the young, smart, charismatic, democratic socialists? Organize now. Take advantage of massive dissatisfaction in '26. Great things in '28.

A hoodlum breaks into your cousin's home, beats him down, starts terrorizing the family. You drive over to help. You corner the hoodlum in a back bedroom. You turn to your cousin and say, "Give me half your money and I'll make sure the guy doesn't come out of your back room for a couple years."
