camille-paglia “Why has the Democratic Party become so arrogantly detached from ordinary Americans? Though they claim to speak for the poor and dispossessed, Democrats have increasingly become the party of an upper-middle-class professional elite, top-heavy with journalists, academics and lawyers.”

While at the 1995 Million Man March in DC, I never saw any of these “convenient measures & restrictions of crowd control with permits” that seem obviously designed to diminish & minimize, any impact of the 9/12 project, its message & what UnAmericans bare allowed to see .
