In 1358, according to historian and author Barbara Tuchman, a peasant
revolution started in the Oise valley of France. The peasants attacked
and looted a manor house, killed the knight who lived there and roasted
him on a spit while his wife and children watched. A dozen of the serfs
raped the lady of the manor while the children watched, and then they
forced her to eat the cooked flesh of her husband. Then they killed her.

Now that is serious class warfare.

Discussing whether the top one percent of the wealthy in this country
should pay a higher tax rate is not, though I think the "French"
treatment of a few dozen Wall Street chiefs and industrial chiefs would
provide quicker results.


Lets hope a similar fate doesn't come to your doorstep.


The astroturf in NYC has received almost 300,000 in aid from around the
world. Guess what they did with the money? You got it, they put it in a
bank!! LOL! NYC is the new CanCun... Yeah, spring break, in September!
