• 1945 = 2010

  1945 - Per Friedrich Gustav Emil Martin Niemöller:
  
  First they came for the Jews
  and I did not speak out
  because I was not a Jew.
  Then they came for the Communists
  and I did not speak out
  because I was not a Communist.
  Then they came for the trade unionists
  and I did not speak out
  because I was not a trade unionist.
  Then they came for me
  and there was no one left
  to speak out for me.

  2010 - Per Hobama: 
  
  First we came for the gays
  and I did not speak out
  because I was no longer seeking their votes.
  Then we came for Fox News
  and I did not speak out
  because I had MSNBC & CNN.
  Then we came for the Tea Party
  and I did not speak out
  because I had the democrats.
  Then they came for me
  and there was no one left
  to speak out for me because all finally awoke...
