Sorry, I hit the sumiy button by accident.

Anyway, the best way to treat an illness it not to treat the symtoms but to spend a little money, time & sweat to find out the root causes & treat those. I can't imagine that in all this no one in this administration bothers to investagate the why of it all (IMHO there's no one there that gives a shit as to the causes), & please don't spew the religious angle (as in Irland) or the extremist bull either.


We are no safer today than we were at the time of 9/11. As long as there exists a power that in subtle or definent ways oppresses or puts their thumb on the back of others there will be the threat of terror when they're on feet again & they feel like there back's against the wall. There's no way in hell we can win in Iraq/Viet Nam & absolutely no way we can wage a campain against terror. It would be easier tracking ghosts through heaven, hell & earth, the spirits
will just keep coming.


What might be our next great concern is home growing our own freedom fighters/terrorists. I would think that many of us can recall the milliant groups of the 60's. Some might of had legit reason & some might not have. The Black Panthers, the SDS, the Weathermen & a bunch more. Faar fetched, we seem to already be reliving part of that era. The Red Scare, the Cold War, J. Edgar Hoover's & the FBI's spy files on Americans, Joe MacCarthy's search for unamerican activities, instead of a civil rights issue (which has yet to be addressed) it's now human & constatutional rights issue. As in the 60's the issues are starting to get more exposure & are starting to pile up. It's beginning to look more & more like a powder keg waiting on a small spark.


Damn, I still haven't been able to find much on Bush's signing of the 2nd Patriot Act on Saturday (an unusual day for signing anything), the same day as Saddam was captured. Seems funny how finding Saddam rates complete coverage and an act that will effect every American is pushed to the back of the classified section. Next we'll find out what's being done to us by reading about it in the funnies. I guess this lends some ghostly truths to Bush's Shadow Government. Where's the debates these days or does every issue just get rammed down our throats & the throats of others around the world.


I find it incredable that the american public can't add beyond 1+1.
Is it that if a little bit of shit gets swallowed here & there & we're told that it's good for us & in our best interests that we can't tell by days end that we've been treated worst that the crapper
& that tomorrow we can gladly expect the whole crew to piss on us, have a good laugh for themselves & thank us all for being right there when we're needed.
