...people at Talk were able to give themselves a pat on the back, and boy did they do so. The launch party for Talk took place Aug. 2 in New York City near the Statue of Liberty, and it was probably larger than the party thrown there when France gave Lady Liberty to the United States...
...book Pat Buchanan tells us what he would have done if he'd been President when Nazi Germany was waging war on England and France: Nothing. Adolf Hitler, he insists, was somewhat misunderstood. The Nazis only wanted to move east into Russia and Eastern Europe--which posed no threat to U.S. interests--until we got them all riled up. The Holocaust?

The key to a successful third party is igniting the interest of those who think but do not vote, not pandering to those who vote without thinking...
