4. I think the GOP have been dragging us back to pre-WW1
even trying the old 'royals' as rulers with people like Bush. Did not work the first time so well. We ended up with a few very rich 'royals, and a lot of poor people. As a movement like that comes to an end it always seems to fight very hard as it blows up. I think we see the same with the Middle East and all the crack pots that are doing all these crazy things trying to bring the people into some type religion that they 'think' they had. Most Middle East people are like you and I and just want a better life for their family, like us. Many of the crazy things the crazies want are not even in their bible. Our crazies do the same thing. My take is we are in the middle of a world revolution but being in the middle of it it is sort of hard to see. My grandchildren will hardly know my life as I was born in the 1930's and I think we are so better off now even with the faults.
