Reading Ehrenreich Is Good For The Soul.

It's Hard To Argue Against Cynics - They Always Sound Smarter Than Optimists Because They Have So Much Evidence On Their Side.

What We Have Here, Fellow Citizens, Is A Crassly Egocentric, Raving Twit.

So Keep Fightin' For Freedom And Justice, Beloveds, But Don't You Forget To Have Fun Doin' It. Lord, Let Your Laughter Ring Forth. Be Outrageous, Ridicule The Fraidy-cats, Rejoice In All The Oddities That Freedom Can Produce.
