Apparently some of this is true, and some of it isn't (see
http://www.snopes.
the many inaccuracies of this piece of net lore)
but it seems sort of silly to quibble over details when Republican
administrations since Nixon forward have been an ongoing criminal
enterprise of astonishing violence and corruption. Conservatives have
long been driven from the party; Former Reagan Administration member,
Wall Street Journal editorial page editor and staff writer for the
National Review Paul Craig Roberts has been calling the Bushite
Neocons (nothing either new or conservative about them, it's just a
recapitulation of National Socialism) brownshirts for some time now.
The Democrats refusal to stand against this evil is the biggest
complaint I have against them these days.
