I was just reading that "some group within the country is usually picked out to serve as 'the enemy' and made to appear as the cause of all evils or misfortunes."

Was that a quote in a recent Times article on Governor Wilson propping-up his approval ratings on the backs of illegal immigrants "prospering" in California's poverty?

Well, no, actually, it was from a 30-year-old World Book Encyclopedia article...on "Fascism".

Never again.
