What does this guy want????

A dictatorship of the proletariat, or more specifically, an oligarchy in which the enlightened, superior-intellect inhabitants of academe rule over their social and intellectual inferiors. In name, no doubt these authors and their colleagues and friends.

Same old story, same old song.

What does this guy want????

To sell you a pig in a poke. A paper tiger. A utopia, a "nowhere" beyond the rainbow, where wishes are horses.

Then, a few years ago, after nearly two decades in exile, an unrepentant Negri returned to Italy to serve a reduced sentence. The book–jacket claim that he is currently an inmate at Ribibbia is wildly exaggerated. In fact, Negri serves his time under partial house arrest at his lovely book–lined apartment in a tony Rome neighborhood. He must sleep there at night, but he is otherwise free to come and go as he pleases, and regularly receives fawning journalists and academics seeking the master’s wisdom.

If I am a very good girl, perhaps God will reward me by allowing me to be convicted of "armed insurrection against the State" in Italy.

I wonder if the four guys arrested with cyanide and maps of the water tunnels under our embassy will also get tony apartments in Rome...
