Bush inspired me. I’ll tell you how.
I was never an “activist” but Bush changed that. Long before he attacked Iraq, I recognized Bush was a dangerous fanatic who would destroy much of what is great about America. Few would now argue with the fact Bush has done exactly that.
So I flew to Washington for every major march against Bush, including those before his attack upon Iraq. Some of those marches involved about a million people, and the feeling was incredible being there and together giving Bush a collective middle finger. I carried some great hand-made protest signs, some of which the Washington Post loved enough to interview me for a front page article. I loved that Bush probably saw my name and read my insult of him on the front page of his Sunday newspaper. I figured one of Rove’s evil trolls toiling in the dungeons would probably add my name to the hit list of (innocent) people for the IRS and CIA to go after, but it didn’t matter. It was worth the risk.
I marched in front of the White House because I saw the real evil wasn’t really Bush; the real evil was the APATHY (and fear) in most Americans. Later in life I didn’t want to look back and see I was one of those apathetic Americans who let it all happen on their watch.

Fisa is not echelon which is not patriot.
And yes, I consider the movement to the patriot zone from the echelon zone to be an important one.
I am not as concerned about carnivore or echelon reading communications as I am concerned about broad nsa taps being shrouded by an artifice of a telco liability holiday. Similarly, occasional waterboarding (which Clinton did discuss as being sometimes necessitated) is qualitatively different from including it as an established go to protocol.
There is a qualitative difference in trying to make inappropriate acts part of the rule of law.
Regarding the Coca cola imperialism (as well as the Vietnamese bottling plant), I think that being at the interstices of the Indian Ocean, Pacific Ocean, and Mekong Delta have more to do with being interested in trade and commerce. Their shift in economy has as much to do with our military “success” as Lenovo has to do with our criticism of Tienanmen Square.
Separately, would this conversation be better over Pho and corona? I am still with the Rhone and pizza idea.

December 30, 2008 at 3:55 PM #321481lostcat92120ParticipantI voted for Obama, but now am starting to wonder what the hell i did. I;ve seen some of his draft legislation pass by my desk in recent weeks. He’s going to end up digging this country a bigger hole than Bush, which is freaky. He’s a really smart guy, but doesn’t get what the real challenges are. He is taking halfway steps. You can’t change anything by doing it half way. He needs to really just jump into it. He’s afraid of consequence and intern is doing exactly what he is trying not to do. He could go down in flames just like Bush. The hope of him being elected is going to turn to despair. This is a sad time. He’s already failing and he hasn’t even been in the white house yet. The economic stimulus plan that he is putting forward is fraud. It will not create any long term jobs and once the funding is spent, there will be nothing new but a huge bill to pay. Fixing pot holes along our streets will on provide temporary employment. Once the money is gone, no more whole fixing. We’ll just be over leveraged and out of budget.
Obama needs to start thinking or how bridge the broken economy we have today, with a new economy of tomorrow. He is not doing this.
Sad.. To think a democrat could be worse than a republican, especially Bush, freaks me out.
