My full and open disclosure ... [View all]

... As a child of the fifties and sixties, when I was nine or ten, I carved a swastika on the palm of my right hand. It's still there.

I am not and never was a Nazi, though as a kid, my sister and brother and I were the the designated Germans in neighborhood war games. Everybody had male relatives who came back from WWII and Korea with all sorts of equipment and uniform parts. Also: I embroidered a big Red Star on my newsboy cap as a young hippy. I also owned and read Mao's Little Red Book. I was disillusioned though - the Sun rising in the East was NOT always Red. I am not and NEVER was a Communist, though I've read Mikail Bakunin's books, I am a touch anarchist and getting socialist as I get older.

For the love of a Democratic Congress, can we PLEASE not give Collins another term.

Further information has come to light!!!

Both Hillary Clinton and I (separately) volunteered for Barry Goldwater's Presidential campaign in 1964. Miss Rodham and I have never crossed paths, except politically. She was robbed. As was Al Gore before her.

Please give Susan Collins the rest she so needs. I am concerned.
