---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: James Creegan <sectaria...@gmail.com> Date: Sat, Jul 4, 2015 at 11:49 AM Subject: Re: [Marxism] Greek Referendum To: Louis Proyect <l...@panix.com> Yes, I caught on to the Louis Proyect theory of leadership a long time ago: If people are confused and ambivalent, it is the task of leaders to... "reflect" their confusion and ambivalence. "Now dear friends, unto the breach (if it's not too dangerous)" "Give me liberty, or give me a reasonable alternative!" "*De la prudence, de la prudence, et encore de la prudence, et la nation est sauvee."* *"*There may be nothing to fear but fear itself, but fear itself can be awful scary!" "We will fight them on the beaches (weather permitting)" Let's take stock Sunday night or Monday morning. I hope my prediction is wrong.
