ORIGINAL: cuckoldmepls The Socialist Party candidate for President of the U.S., Norman Thomas, said this in a 1944 speech: "The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of "liberalism, " they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened." He went on to say: "I no longer need to run as a Presidential Candidate for the Socialist Party. The Democrat Party has adopted our platform." Amazing how the conservatives will reach back however far in time to find anything anyone says to demonize anyone to the left of themselves but have decided George Bush and his misdeeds are ancient history. Please, for the sake of politeness if nothing else, try to cover up your hypocracy just a little bit. quote:

Privatize gain, socialize losses -- that's the formula.
