Greeks.

It’s also hard to feel badly for a nation of people who have chosen to pursue this ruinous political path—people who cast 52% of their votes for communists or neo-Nazis, and who have proven completely unable to take any responsibility for what has transpired.

Greece will probably respond to the failure of extreme-left Syriza by electing even more extreme politicians. It seems likely that they will choose a strongman to “get things done.” I think people fail to understand how totalitarianism can happen in the 21st century. Think of this as a YouTube tutorial video on the subject.

We're no different.

    I didn't vote. Gay marriage, state healthcare, Capt. Underoos as alternative?

    (I don't mean to slander LDS. It is in the spirit of Sotomayor as Catholic, or... too many examples to pick 1).
