I have. Then I put that comment in the perspective of 7 months of
Obama/Biden. It's even worse.

Most of the contents of the patriot act was written before Bush was even
in office.

I am really getting tired of flyers being left on my 1993 Voyager,
telling me that "this vehicle qualifies for the "cash for clunkers
program."" First of all, it is not a "clunker," and I plan on keeping
it for many more years, thank you.

Even with the incentives, insurance costs are higher on a new vehicle,
as are registration fees. Our state has quadrupled the fees over the
past several years.

Saul Alinsky and his Rules for Radicals are dead.

Info. on Green Jobs Czar - Van Jones:
Excerpt from a Nov. 2005 interview in the East Bay Express:
Jones had planned to move to Washington, DC, and had already landed a
job and an apartment there. But in jail, he said, "I met all these young
radical people of color -- I mean really radical, communists and
anarchists. And it was, like, 'This is what I need to be a part of.'"
Although he already had a plane ticket, he decided to stay in San
Francisco. "I spent the next ten years of my life working with a lot of
those people I met in jail, trying to be a revolutionary." In the months
that followed, he let go of any lingering thoughts that he might fit in
with the status quo. "I was a rowdy nationalist on April 28th, and then
the verdicts came down on April 29th," he said. "By August, I was a
communist." In 1994, the young activists formed a socialist collective,
Standing Together to Organize a Revolutionary Movement, or STORM, which
held study groups on the theories of Marx and Lenin and dreamed of a
multiracial socialist utopia. They protested police brutality and got
arrested for crashing through police barricades. In 1996, Jones decided
to launch his own operation, which he named the Ella Baker Center after
an unsung hero of the civil-rights movement.

This is the kind of people who are trying to run our country.

The most controversial provisions in the Act, including FISA, were
subject to 'sunset' provisions in 2005. It was these provisions that
Bush subsequently tortured in the Reauthorization, and violated to boot,
including via domestic warrantless wiretapping.

Get used to it.

We're not going back to your wrong-way, dead-end thinking for at least
another 7-1/2 years.
