When you have Bush bringing in some of his father's old criminal buddies such as John Poindexter and assorted others into his administration, you know the old cattle trough they want to push us through.

While the majority here will deny any conspiracies exist, I bet I've been looking into them a lot longer and a lot more closely than 99% of the population. And a list I read 20 years ago of things that "could/would" happen, are already up and running, in place or are laws now even.

There's too many sandwich-eating FBI and NSA neophytes under the age of 25, reading and storing information on all of us. Blogs are their last bastion of freedom which they will peruse and categorize and put us under lists of domestic terrorists. I'm sure people like Bowser and I are on the tops of their lists because we can call a jackass a jackass without mincing our words.

Having dealt with some of them in times past, all I can say is I hope they enjoy their sandwiches and all the colorful discourse they are getting. If any of them are SMART ENOUGH, hopefully they will learn enough to side-step their income-based programming.
