"This is the criminal left that belongs not……" — Spiro T. Agnew
"This is the criminal left that belongs not in a dormitory, but in a penitentiary.

Black or white, the criminal left is interested in power. It is not interested in promoting the renewal and reforms that make democracy work; it is interested in promoting those collisions and conflict that tear democracy apart."
