She frets that “another civil war” may be in the offing. “I don’t see us being the ones to start it,” she told Barstow, “but I would give up my life for my country.”
Whether consciously or coincidentally, Stout was echoing Palin’s memorable final declaration during her appearance at the National Tea Party Convention earlier this month: “I will live, I will die for the people of America, whatever I can do to help.” It’s enough to make you wonder who is palling around with terrorists now.

Such people were very helpful in Soviet Union without them the life would be totally unbearable, likewise the people like these who lived during the holocaust are now honored as "righteous gentiles" .

This very thing probably limits some of the crazy excesses of the politicians.
