The Greater Communism We Ignore Nor Dare Call It For What It Is!

[wkmac]

Quoting a 2 term President:

Communism is a hateful thing and a menace to peace and organized government; but the communism of combined wealth and capital, the outgrowth of overweening cupidity and selfishness, which insidiously undermines the justice and integrity of free institutions, is not less dangerous than the communism of oppressed poverty and toil, which, exasperated by injustice and discontent, attacks with wild disorder the citadel of rule.

I, for one, had never seen the word, "overweening" in print. So, in case I'm not alone, see below......


Overly convinced of one's own superiority and importance: arrogant, haughty, high-and-mighty, insolent, lofty, lordly, overbearing, prideful, proud, supercilious, superior. Idiom: on one's high horse.

If it was spelled differently 'overweaning', then it would be too much sippy cup and not enough boob!
