Quote of the Day - Primary Sources Edition

"Geek, I am surprised to find that I think I am really a Republican, and this frightens me. It isn't that the Republicans are scary...well, some of them are, but not the ones I've actually seen. The people who really scare the hell out of me are the Democrats. I used to think I was one of them, until I saw how they really behaved once they have power. I can see that they're just interested in power, and in instituting as much of a Socialist scheme as they can get away with..."

I probed. "Socialist? Really? A lot of people bandy that word about, and a lot of Democrats will tell you that it really doesn't apply, and its inaccurate and misguided to suggest that's what they..." Kurt cut me off, with a chopping motion of his hand and annoyance that is very uncharacteristic for him.

"Yes! Socialist! A little bit more and more, every time I look closer!" Kurt stopped to compose himself. "Geek, trust me, I know socialists when I see them. I came here to get away from all that krap in Germany, and I don't like seeing it here, not one little bit."

And from TSM:

I am a new NRA member. I have been a citizen for only fourteen years. I believe in the Constitution and the Second Amendment, and when I see Obama, I see Communism, and I am afraid.
