Appropriate, still

I’m currently reading, right now, the book listed in the sidebar left.  It’s only the second collection of Mencken’s writings I’ve ever read.  Here’s a quote.

"And the issue of Americanism is being murdered by idiots.  Day by day its exponents pile up proofs that to be an American, as they conceive it, is to be a poltroon and an ass."

H.L. Mencken

Back to the book.
