“The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of ‘liberalism’ they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.”

Unions get the hat top at Oscars

I didn't watch the whole show last night, but for the parts I did watch, the only reference to lefty causes I heard were two winners who went out of their way to thank their "UNION crews", with stress on the word "union". Unless there were others, I guess the Oscars were more or less politics free....a refreshing change from past years. But then, when the messianic, democrat President is in the white house rather then the loathsome republican George Bush, celebrities are loathe to criticize the government or it's policies.

So I guess it wasn't entirely unwatchable TV, but thank goodness for the "last channel" button on the remote so we could click back and forth between the Oscars and Through the Worm Hole on the Science channel.

I've recently introduced my two teenage kids to the concept of the self-licking ice cream cone. Last night during the Oscars they both looked at me and imitated holding (and licking) and ice cream cone. Mission complete.

By the way, I divided my time between the dairy product-imbibing "show" and my new MacBook Air. My brother bought it for me as a gift. We should all have brothers like him! I just wanted you to know I wasn't really watching this shameless spectacle.
