"The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism, but under the name of liberalism, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program until one day, America will be a socialist nation without ever knowing how it happened.' -- Norman Thomas, American socialist"
The quote and article it came from serve as timely intros to the 5th installment of my political-photoshop gallery. Joseph Farah points out some of the indicators that support the quote above. You can hear his frustration in lines such as:
"Americans may simply be too far gone spiritually, morally and intellectually to reject the temptations of socialism."
I understand what Joseph is seeing when he writes a line like that, but I will not give up the fight. There was never a country founded with a better mix of economic freedom, political freedom, and the rule of law than the US. It is unique, and has been a light in a vast cavern of darkness. When it goes out, it won't be woe to the US, it will be woe to mankind. It's worth the fight. Humanity is worth the fight. The fight of reason, individualism, and objectivity over sentimentalism, corruption, and collectivism.
