And then go to A Marxist Dictator who       uses the political power that comes from the barrel of a gun to force       his people to submit to his destruction of their NATION that was a       pretty nice place before the Marxists took control.              --       -Reality Matters-              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
