In my very dark moments, he is Caligula.<br /><br />As for Cruz, even <i>Texas Monthly</i>, which does not lean right, <a href="http://www.texasmonthly.com/politics/the-top-10-things-you-need-to-know-about-ted-cruz/" rel="nofollow">has good things to say about his intelligence.</a> But damn if he doens't make me think of the rah-rah-Jesus youth pastor with a creepy secret.<br /><br />As for Hilary, I don't lean toward the USSR so much as some sword-and-sorcery epid where her voices echoes down stone corridors, making the torches flicker as she shouts, "The throne is rightfully <i>mine</i>!"Chas S.

I ended up at:<br /><br />https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Thing_%28listening_device%29<br /><br />I'm guessing you already knew about "The Thing", but your original link got me there. I had no idea so many of the Soviet aerospace designers (or the inventor of the eponymous theremin) had originally been sent to gulags.<br />Blackwing1noreply@blogger.com
