Perhaps he believes that anybody smarter than him should be up against the wall?

Or richer. Or older. But usually youthful exuberant "communists" are driven by the simple conviction that everything should be free.

How is it possible that you can suck this much at the very basics of the English language and still manage to pull good grades (with the exception of those three Cs)?

I weep for the future.

This problem happens often but it's too expensive to fix it, so we simply recommend that you use caution when starting a thread.

And a +1 to each of you for making me laugh.  I just really didn't see a Kojak reference coming.  I know, "Duh", right?

well, not exactly commies, but socialists. hence the name "national socialist".

You might mention to Mr. Beck that the National Socialist platform was explicitly and specifically anti-communist.

People confuse Nazism, socialism and fascism with communism because the so-called communist regimes that arose in the last century are actually fascist/socialist totalitarian regimes, very different from real communism. So, if Mr. Beck had even a slightly larger brain, he might have said something like "It is ironic that so-called communists were one of Hitler's primary targets for elimination, because the communist regimes of the day were not entirely dissimilar to Hitler's regime. One may conclude that Hitler's beef with Stalin was more territorial than philosophical, and that his hatred for German communists arose purely from political rivalry, rather than a quibbling over annoying little things like human rights.  However, we must be clear that Nazism has nothing in common with real communism, which, after all, was envisioned as a self-governing society of free individuals. So my earlier statement that Nazis were a bunch of commies was clearly wrong, and I have decided to withdraw from the public sphere for the remainder of my days."

A test that you take in the Midwest to get into colleges generally from the Midwest because both the east and the west colleges i applied to didn't accept them. ACT stands for American College Testing.

Oh and it doesn't test you on your knowledge but on how fast you can learn.   :?
