History's Magic Mirror: America’s Economic Crisis and the Weimar Republic of Pre-Nazi Germany
History's Magic Mirror: America’s Economic Crisis and the Weimar Republic of Pre-Nazi Germany
We have a lot to be afraid of depending on next weeks outcome. All the voter manipulation going on with the GOP and the hurricane. Will we be able to get through this election cycle believing that our elections are not being screwed up by immoral operatives? We'll see about voter fraud Fla. style next week. I hope the democrats will not be so spineless this time around if irregularities by GOP are found and won't back down when challenged.

Schools Chancellor Dennis Walcott Says PS 195 5th Grader Kameron Slade Will Be Allowed To Deliver Speech Supporting Same-Sex Marriage « CBS New York
Schools Chancellor Dennis Walcott Says PS 195 5th Grader Kameron Slade Will Be Allowed To Deliver Speech Supporting Same-Sex Marriage « CBS New York Learning about discrimination and hate at school! What's wrong with this picture. Fire the principal. This individual does not belong in an educational capacity. Teaching hate politics and censorship is not an education mandate unless you are a KKK or GOP hate monger. Scapegoating a population is not the American way despite the fascists in our society who like the Nazis of the 1930s would like to make it so. It could happen here if we are not alert.

Recently on the upper floors of a Manhattan based gay center--the distinction Woman's room disappeared but MEN's rooms still are labeled as such. What's wrong with this picture!!!

Boy, 4, sings anti-gay hymn in Indiana church
Boy, 4, sings anti-gay hymn in Indiana church
It is happening here, it has happened here. Tomorrow belongs to me from Cabaret is something that is now. You have to be carefully taught as the song from South Pacific reminds us and this is a horrible example of filling toddler minds with hate and reinforcing adult agendas. From the Klan to these people the extremes are alive and well in the US of A. We need to be alert and vote these representatives out of congress and our government or we will have no one to blame but ourselves.

Winnaretta Singer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Winnaretta Singer Polignac was one of the strangest lovers Romaine Brooks ever encountered. Their affair began in 1905 when Romaine first moved to Paris. The laison effectively ended Winnaretta's affair with Olga de Meyer, who was married at the time and whose godfather (and purported biological father) was Edward VII. Princess Winnie then bedded composer and conductor Ethel Smyth. In the early 1920s Polignac became involved with pianist Renata Borgatti who Romaine also had an affair with. The princesses most famous affair was with the British socialite and novelist Violet Trefusis, with whom she had a loving but often turbulent and sadistic relationship.That lasted for over a decade. Her last lover was Alvilde Chaplin, future wife of the author James Lees-Milne, was involved with Singer from 1938 to 1943; the two women were living together in London at the time of Winnaretta's death.
