[Peace-discuss] Electioneering / if not "here" then where?

["E. Wayne Johnson 朱稳森"]

I never cease to be amazed by how authoritarian Illinois Democrats can be.
As long as it's you that is subject to the authority, not them.

One of them, a dried-out emaciated female Democratix told me at one
Urbana saturday morning event that some of the items in the Bill of Rights
should be cancelled out.  No doubt they had ceased to exist in her
etiolated cerebrum.
