May 2013

but for myself, I follow the adage (know thy enemy) !!
I try to keep in mind what my grandmother said about Hitler.
That they all thought he was a funny little man, and that no one thought he would be taken seriously until it was to late.

Not saying Beck has that kind of power but, that there are those in power who think like him. And while we may think they are but shit crazy doesn't keep them from being a danger!
