When fascism comes to America it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying the cross.
-- Upton Sinclair

The streets of our country are in turmoil. The universities are filled with students rebelling and rioting. Communists are seeking to destroy our country. Russia is threatening us with her might, and the Republic is in danger. Yes -- danger from within and without. We need law and order! Without it our nation cannot survive.

So I shamelessly say no, I want him to fail, if his agenda is a far-left collectivism, some people say socialism, as a conservative heartfelt, deeply, why would I want socialism to succeed?”

-- Rush Limbaugh in an interview with Sean Hannity, January 21, 2009

In discussing activism, the noted historian, Howard Zinn noted:

When Reagan announced the blockade of Nicaragua, 550 of us sat in at the federal building in Boston to protest, and were arrested. It seemed too big a group of dissidents to deal with, and charges were dropped. The official complaint against was: "Failure to Quit." That is, surely, the critical fact about the continuing movement for human rights here and all over the world.
