re: But don't you remember..........
Sure do, Lindy. You know you'll take heat for presenting the facts in a way that sounds like a conspiracy, but for myself I can paraphrase it by saying that none of those scenarios are exactly impossible, and there are disturbing hints that some may be probable...and it worries me.
Especially when the "soothing reassurances" of the Bushies and their supporters boil down to "Und soo, Herr Shepherd, ifff you haff nozing to hide, vhy vould you mind Ze Shtate keepink un eye on you? Hmmmmmm?" Why is that just because Republicans are in power, they've suddenly decided that government intrustion into our lives is just peachy-keen? Why should I be the one to sound like a RightWinger? Where are their priniciples hiding?
