It Can’t Happen Here?

Posted on | March 29, 2010 | No Comments

A post at Big Government, reminding us of Sinclair Lewis’s prescient book, It Can’t Happen Here, gives us the comment of the day:

What are you talking about Zak? The electorate in this country would have to consist of fools for something like this to happen. It would take a generation of people dumbed down by a bloated and incompetent public education system and a journalism monopoly that mirrored an anti- American pop culture.

Now leave me alone. The View is coming on and I need to catch up on some real news before Cops.

Plus I think Clooney is on Ellen which is good because the kids are staying late at school for a science project. Their teacher is going to help them save the polar bears from Haliburton.
