The American Spectator : The Spectacle Blog : Marx and Genetic Inheritance

You know, I'm looking at the two most recent transfers of power in Communist countries -- from Fidel to his brother Raul Castro and from Kim Jong Il to his young son -- and I'm wondering how I missed the part in the Communist Manifesto where the leaders of the revolution leave their offices to their family members.

The state doesn't wither much, does it?

Tea Party Candidate Christine O’Donnell at one point said, “more people support my Catholic faith than his (Coons) Marxist beliefs.”

As long as you never conscript for the military, there is no real problem; you revive the drafy and another rebellion similar to that which started in '65, when Vietnam began, will occur. Remember, it ended when the Draft ended.

You behave, others will behave more than they do now-- not much, but some.

Well, we had Bush I and Bush II and we would of had Clinton II and still might. And that's even before we get to Bush II and Kerry both being members of the same secret fraternity at Yale, but I misplaced my tinfoil hat lately or sat on it or sumpin. As for Bush I being head of the CIA and family friends with Jon Hinckley, oh never mind. Nobody would ever believe it.

Appointing a brother or son as the next leader really say DICTATORSHIP. SINCE WHEN IS THERE A DEMOCRACY IN DICTATORSHIPS. I MUST HAVE MISSED SOMETHING ALSO. Enough of these bastards.
