“I wonder if America needs a Pinochet to straighten things out?

The world’s greatest intellectual, Thomas Sowell, Ph.d, warned that there may come a day when the American military just won’t take it anymore.”

The Roman Emperor Caligula was assassinated in 37 A.D. by the commanding officer of his own Praetorian Guard just after Caligula changed the password for all Roman soldiers stationed anywhere in the Empire to, “Kiss me!” which implied all Roman troops were homosexuals.

Every organization has a breaking point.

It is really something. Even the Germans did not vote Hitler into office (though he was later confirmed by a plebiscite afterward). Even the Bolsheviks did not win election when the Bolsheviks held an election in the early 1920s, but we elect an enemy of America gifted with utter incompetence here.

An election is not an audience vote on "American Idol." I hope Americans will learn that sometime.
