#6  Well, I kinda have my reasons. I keep fearing in the new world order they'll find some sort of way to replace me with a Tranquil Mechanical Yeti.

#5  Snowy I'd take you more seriously about the camera deal except, well, it's widely accepted that you have serious issues with them.

#3   Technology, despite the combined hysteria of the left and the Libertarian Right, will save us all from the terrorist nightmare.

Actually, I worry these days, who's gonna protect us from the yuppies.

Just imagine, the current lead candidate for the Presidency is someone who doesn't think the war is all that important, and votes for telecom immunity anyway. What's he planning to do with all that state?

(For that matter, what's the state department, which IMHO so thoroughly hosed the Iraq War, want to do with all that power?)

Part of the reason I supported the war was because it was a third way between surrendering to the terrorists or going the European route, where they pay the weregild to Al Qaeda and then stick a camera on every street corner to pretend they're fighting terrorism, but they're just fighting their own serfs.

(Search images.google.com for 'george orwell camera' if you haven't seen the pics already).
