Alas, here I am participating again in your favorite pasttime- getting way off track from the original subject of the thread.
Ah, but it's the truth that sets the captives free. So easy to deny reality, with a drink in one hand and Vicodin in the other...a likely scenario, if you want to purport that nonsense about "bugs and problems"....this, beyond a shadow of a doubt, was unprecedented, unthinkable, and highly unlikely....and precisely what we got was tyranny...but you sitting up in your cushy house, with 2 cars in the garage, contemplating on whether to have lobster or medallions of veal, as you look over your portfolio, might be far removed from the effects of said tyranny, as the benefactors seem to be "white, corporate, cheerleaders" for this monstrosity. Why, indeed, would you be protesting against the status quo....let them eat cake, right? (as she said, on her way to the guillotine)...some Republicans, (and some Dems) ought to be rubbing their necks, about right now, getting ready for Nov 2008.
And . seemingly, it's not me indulging my favorite pasttime, getting off topic, it would be you and yours, indulging your favorite pasttime, subterfuging, ducking and dodging, and throwing up smoke screens. Sorry if the truth "hurts"
