I was searching for an outliner for my Handspring Visor, and read Drinking the Kool-Aid by Jeff Kirvin that goes along with a couple posts of mine about the Patriot Act and the downward spiral the US seems to be on. Here's a quote to whet your pallate:
;:Fritz refused to listen as my friend and I tried to explain the PATRIOT Act to him. At one point, he shouted, "No! That's not my America! I refuse to believe that!" Hitler once said that people will believe any lie, so long as it's big enough. Too many of the American people have believed the lies of the current administration because they can't face the alternative: accepting that the people are no longer in control, that the major issues of the day are decided by the super rich and their political proxies, and that the dream of American democracy is largely an illusion.
It's kind of scary. I don't even have to try to find examples of the American Gestapo. I just happen to stumble across them.
Tic toc. Tic toc...How much longer until the Thought Police show up at my door?
