"...it's not the training to be mean but the training to be kind that is used to keep us leashed best." ~ Black Dog Red
"In case you haven't recognized the trend: it proceeds action, dissent, speech." ~ davidly, on how wars get done
"...What sort of meager, unerotic existence must a man live to find himself moved to such ecstatic heights by the mundane sniping of a congressional budget fight. The fate of human existence does not hang in the balance. The gods are not arrayed on either side. Poseiden, earth-shaker, has regrettably set his sights on the poor fishermen of northern Japan and not on Washington, D.C. where his ire might do some good--I can think of no better spot for a little wetland reclamation project, if you know what I mean. The fight is neither revolution nor apocalypse; it is hardly even a fight. A lot of apparatchiks are moving a lot of phony numbers with more zeros than a century of soccer scores around, weaving a brittle chrysalis around a gross worm that, some time hence, will emerge, untransformed, still a worm." ~ IOZ

Classic Liberalism!
Bonus anagram generation:
Wood Is Owl Worn
Anal Regard, No
Baa. Karma Cob
hmmmm....
three egregious tools of empire separated by a few decades interchangeable nevertheless
Sloganeering Hilarity:
Woody: "He Kept us out of War"
Ronny: "It's Morning again in America"
Barry: "Hope"
And a few rewrites:
"Fucking with the nations of Hispaniola ain't no thang"
"Bring me some coffee, bitch"
"Some things are going to happen, what were you thinking of?"
Nicely done, all.
I only wish history had a bit more symmetry, to drive home the point.
Woodrow Wilson
Ronald Wilson Reagan
Barack Ronald Obama
