Time of the Toad???

The time of the toad refers to the act of sitting back and observing government taking away any dissenters to the agenda they have set out. In Germany while Hitler consolidated his power he slowly removed intellectuals, political figures and any group that might question his authority....the toads would gather to chat and read what passed for newspapers and drink coffee. When a car would pull up and men would take someone away the rest of the "Toads" would silently say ...."better him than me" or "he wasn't loyal and deserved to be taken for interrogation". One day only one remained and the car arrived....too late for toads to make a fuss.

The title is from the book of the same name by Dalton Trumbo. He was one of the Hollywood 10 who McCarthy and his henchman Richard Nixon declared as communist during the 1950's witch hunt in America. The men named were turned in by their friends and neighbours....even though these men fought in Europe against the facists.......the time of the toad in America .

This blog is a site for my "rant ".....a view about our democracy?


To start....How did the conservative party in Canada afford to run that sham election? They catered the ads to immigrants whom they don't like but wanted their votes. The campagn was a smear all the way through...ps I am not for any political party....They should all be wearing orange jumpsuits and sharing a cell with some of the criminals their policies help proliferate.

Next I'll continue my love fest with the carpet baggers in every political office.
