Democrats are historically those intelectualls who have that confused look on their face as the victors of the revolution line them up and shoot them or chop off their heads.

Much like the bohemian style aristocrats who thought the french revolution should happen but were shocked to find that despite their useful idiot status, they were still sent to the chopping block.

Good grief, CNN is trying to rehabilitate Carter/Mondale. Carter is repeating every malicious lie that has been told about this Administration (they spied on citizens without a warrant, the VP exerted pressure to shape intelligance).

They want us all to forget how horrible those 4 year were with Carter blaming every ill in the American people. Do they forget that he botched everything up so badly that people started questioning whether the job of President had become just too much for one man. The reality, of course, was that that particular man was way too small for the job.

Along came Reagan (thank you, Lord), and the questions of whether the job was too big for one man faded away.

Or, "Communism is the perfect system it's just that the right people haven't tried it yet."

One of the French Revolutionaries, (maybe Danton?), once said he enjoyed going to the Salons so he could watch the Aristocracy mine the ground under their own feet.

Frankly I am not enjoying watching our self styled aristocracy do the same thing. Maybe that is because unlike Danton, rational Americans realize there ARE people in the world more then willing to chop our heads off.
