17. Gratuitous post just to keep this on the front page

Edited on Sun May-30-10 12:00 PM by socialist_n_TN

With a story: I knew "socialism" as a word was losing it's sting when the valedictorian of my daughter's HS graduation class in '05 spoke glowingly about Eugene Debs, actually NAMING him AS a Socialist, AND SHE GOT LOTS OF APPLAUSE FROM THE AUDIENCE. This was in the buckle of the Bible Belt in Nashville, TN., albeit at an Arts Magnet School.
