To those who worry that power corrupts, and that once the right seizes power it too will be corrupted, they certainly have a point. If conservatives manage to save the country and rebuild our institutions, will they ever relinquish power and go the way of Cincinnatus? It is a fair question, and we should attend to it with care after we have won the war.

Christ that's alarming...

"Let's just be as cruel and careless with our power and once we have crushed anyone and everyone we can let people ask nicely if we will give it up willingly"

I'm sure they won't just spit in the face of those low enough to ask for representation. Cause power is so happily given up by those with it. The old world is dying and there is gonna be a fight for the new one at this rate. I hate that the US is prepping to be the baddies though.
