Two years ago at the Bangor WalMart a group of Korean War Vets had a table at the entrance, holding a raffle for two hundred gallons of heating oil.
I bought five tickets and, as is my wont, started chatting them up about conservatism.
One topic led to another and somehow the Klan got mentioned. The lead Vet, a big, good ol' boy from The County, had on what looked like a wedding ring which he turned over to reveal a Klan ring and said words too the effect that, "We're here and ready for any dusky invasion."
I extricated myself as quickly and politely as possible, but I had a real chill down my spine.
This whole business puts a chill down my spine, metesky! We have this hate group recruiting, and now WLBZ is doing a nighty piece at 6pm news, which started last night, trying to "build up the immigrants, and how good they are for Maine." What's up with that!
I hope I'm wrong, but I think there is something brewing in southern Maine and it's not a good thing.
They say "There is a reason for everything," and maybe it's a good thing Cianchette didn't get elected for Governor. Baldy might have more then he can chew with his time in office, and Cianchette is much to nice a guy to put up with this garbage.
