Well, whatever makes you happy, Nicole. You say you've seen it all and a lot of it scarier, but that's either self-delusion or rationalization for not fighting.

What, in your opinion is scarier than the articles posted above? The media conditioned us to accept torture with Camp X-ray in Cuba (because it was 'them', not 'us), the government conditioned us to accept incarceration without constitutional protections with Padilla (because it was 'him', not 'me'), and now they're conditioning you to accept concentration camps for Arab-Americans, hoping you will classify that particular group as 'them' and not 'us'. But they ARE us. So, by extension, a U.S. Congressman just said it is OK to lock you up in a concentration camp!

And as far as the Bohemian Grove stuff, that was meant to make you folks substantiate your out-of-hand dismissals, which a lot of you have a tendency to do. Sure I'm antagonistic. We don't have time for leisurely exchanges. As I type, your local cops are being briefed on their new duties under the new Federal Homeland Security police regime.
