• Resulta que los mayas tenían razón cuando predijeron que el mundo se acabaría en 2012. Era sólo un mundo selecto: el universo del G.O.P. de blancos arrogantes, estirados, con derechos, mandones y retrógrados. [...] En lugar de viruela, plagas, sequías y conquistadores, el declive republicano se deberá a una obstinada negativa a adaptarse a un mundo en el que cuentan los pobres y los enfermos y los negros y los morenos y las mujeres y los homosexuales.
