"The penalty that good people pay for not being interested in politics is to be governed by people worse than themselves"--Plato, 427-347 BCE
“Just because you do not take an interest in politics doesn't mean politics won't take an interest in you. ”--Pericles
"They imagine that the atrocities of the last month will be the last, or at least that the universal horror that they have provoked will lead to a long respite. They do not realise, I fear, that the gears move faster and faster, and that one can always go further in atrocities; the limit is never reached"--Leon Blum on life in Nazi-occupied France
Poignant words on the 4th. Every time I think I can't take any more reading about what's really going on in the world, I get another brilliant piece of writing from you. I wish someone, anyone would give you a louder bullhorn/bully pulpit/bully ANYTHING so that the last of the Americans that can READ and COMPREHEND could get a clue. Thank you for fighting on Mr. Larsen. Thank you.

Mike, this is so kind of you to say. Thank you, this means a lot to hear.
This brought a tear to my eye. We’re all here because someone, somewhere kept fighting.
I love that sentiment. Thank you.
Yep. And someone... is us.
WE are the ones we've been waiting for. LFG.
Thank you for the reminder, Jon. I needed it. Happy 4th.
Thank you.
