So we’re tearing down statures of Robert E. Lee and William McKinley and putting up statures of Lenin. It’s amazing how our culture has changed over just the past few years.
Blame the pinheads who populate our 'academic' institutions. I never heard ANYONE extol the virtues of Marxism/Communism in the US until I met some arrogant know-it-all idiots at the U of Chicago. It makes me sick.
And to think, it was the Russians themselves who tore down the monuments to communists, broke them up, melted them, or otherwise threw them into a landfill; as Reagan rightly said, onto the ash heap of history.
But rich, fat, lazy American academic Socialists, dressed in tweed jackets, with elbow patches and smoking a pipe, or wearing a gypsy skirt, with flowing scarves and crystal and turquoise necklaces, decided it would be just grand to save this monument to a monster and put it HERE, in this country, on display.
