Intruders punch hole in Monet work

Intruders, apparently drunk, broke into the Orsay Museum through a back door early Sunday and punched a hole in a renowned work by Impressionist painter Claude Monet, the French culture minister said.


If drunk morons can easily break into the museum and get away, the museum is lucky that is all that happened.

The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of 'liberalism' they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.

That's appalling news in spite of Deryykk's funny quip :)

To its height, its depth, its broad extent,
A limitless love, without hatred or enmity."
