Well said.. The Republic is in grave danger if even we still HAVE a republic..
The Coup D'etat seems to have happened..
The chief problem of American political life...has been how to make the two Congressional parties more national and international. The argument that the two parties should represent opposed ideals and policies, one, perhaps, of the Right and the other of the Left, is a foolish idea acceptable only to doctrinaire and academic thinkers. Instead, the two parties should be almost identical, so that the American people can 'throw the rascals out' at any election without leading to any profound or extensive shifts in policy."
~Carroll Quigley, 'Tragedy and Hope'
Quigley was an evil man. Brilliant, but evil.
