"To the future or to the past, to a time when thought is free, when men are different from one another and do not live alone -- to a time when truth exists and what is done cannot be undone: From the age of uniformity, from the age of solitude, from the age of Big Brother, from the age of doublethink -- greetings!"

Hillary's own reverend problem
The wonderful Barbara Ehrenreich, author of Nickel and Dimed, explains why Hillary has been oddly silent about Reverend Wright.
Like the character from Orwell's book, I feel I must write to spite our modern Big Brother era of dumbed down, conspicuous consumption driven masses and the government that has lashed the wheel of our cultural ship to this course.
