Frank Rich in his column about the GOP meltdown in upstate NY's congressional race:

The same Republicans who once deplored Democrats for refusing to let an anti-abortion dissident, Gov. Robert Casey of Pennsylvania, speak at the 1992 Clinton convention now routinely banish any dissenters in their own camp.

I've tried to draft this post for the past couple of weeks and it isn't working. So I've decided to try stream of consciousness so the readers could do the work for me. Kind of like mad libs Joyce. So here it goes:

We are a country built on paper (mortgages, securities, etc.) We don't make things any more. We make paper. That is by design. It's what our elites wanted, sell off the industrial base, keep the paper.

She had a dream
And boy it was a good one
So she chased after her dream
With much desire
But when she get too close
To her expectations
Well the dream burned up
Like paper in fire
- John Cougar Mellencamp

How do you organize/protest in a country built on paper?

Fire?
