The List

In time, they'll have to make a list, a secret one, which names
The words which are no longer to be used. The terms will
Seem to cease to be, as voices dare not utter them, so ears
Will never hear them said. Only in the farthest, darkest corners
Will "racism" be intoned. "Liberty," and "genocide," and "choice "
Will only come in whispers. "Tyranny" and "oligarchy" won't
Be heard at all. Authorities will keep the list and use it to put
Malefactors into jails or onto planes, in chains, and flown
To unfamiliar lands.

I don't understand why there isn't more protest; wild, hardline protest. The bastard is wrecking your country. He is an obvious case of the borderline syndrom. Lock him up and save the USA. I could never have thought that it would be so easy for a sick, malfunctioning fool to throw your country into the gutter. Everybody's laughing at you, the way you let the fool wreck you.
