I received an email from my brother this morning that showed Norman Mattoon Thomas (Nov. 1884- Dec. 1968)a leading American Socialist, pacifist, and six-time presidential candidate for the Socialist Party of America. This is what he said in 1944!! "The American people will never knowingly adopt socilaism. 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." He went on to say: "I no longer need to run as a Presidential Candidate for the Socialist Party. The Democrat Party has adopted our platform."<br />The American people had better wake up and be very scared. Why are we not standing up for what our country has always stood for? I am worried about my grandchildren's future.<br />Blessings to you.Brenda S Okie in Coloradohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13233618789573140772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30454920.post-79096470717019942212009-08-19T10:45:31.416-05:002009-08-19T10:45:31.416-05:00To answer the question you left over on my blog ab...To answer the question you left over on my blog about visiting the Badlands - the best time to visit the Badlands and Medora is just about anytime with the exception of winter of course. The little town of Medora pretty much closes up during the winter, although everything stays open through the fall hunting season. Things get going on Memorial weekend and go full bore until Labor Day weekend. So anytime during the summer is nice, but late summer is the best as in August all the wild flowers are blooming. This year was exceptionally beautiful as the area has had record rains so things are greener than I've ever seen them in all the years I've traveled out there. Normally it's quite dry and brown by the end of summer. Make sure you make your hotel reservations early as the weekends are usually pretty booked up if you're looking for a weekend. A really fun place to stay is the Rough Rider Hotel - a hotel that was established during the time that Teddy Roosevelt stayed in Medora and is still in operation. It's been kept quite original and is a fun experience. Also, if you're interested in history make sure you tour the Chateau De Mores. Google it online and you'll get the entire history. He was a French marquis who was way ahead of his time in growing and transporting beef cattle. There's also a replica stagecoach that will take you on a trip down the Missouri river banks - quite an experience to see how people used to travel back then. It's a wonder they got anywhere. Hope you enjoy it and make sure you let me know when you go.Lena . . .https://www.blogger.com/profile/12668036821461012213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30454920.post-2528697034244924542009-08-18T10:12:34.540-05:002009-08-18T10:12:34.540-05:00I totally agree with you.

This is absolutely insane. We are a free country. Why are people being sued, fired, fined and sentenced for speaking their beliefs?!Twisted Fenceposthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15973165692768831966noreply@blogger.com
