  Resistance is futile.
  I couldn't go on feeding it. I had to leave it all behind... except for my benefits, that is.

I watched Chalmers this weekend on book-tv. There is no one quite like him. He can say it all in so few words and make all the sense in the world. Great post p.!

Wow, that same old biased site with another biased article posted as news...
"The Populist Party of America is a political party..."
Usually political party websites don't have massive amounts of ads on their page, I think these stories are being linked so people go to the site and generate hits because politics is the "hot item" right now.

The only way to make amends is to IMPEACH.

  Impeachment? A futile and wasted gesture that would do lasting harm to rid ourselves of a temporary evil.
  Just vote for someone who stands for what you believe in come 2008. That's all it takes!
  But you do have to get off your butt and go vote. Complaining that your representatives don't impeach doesn't cut it.

    I do vote, and I do vote for "someone who stands for what (I) believe in".... but......
    "Insanity: repeating the same task expecting different results."
    For the record, regardless of my disappointment in our govt, I am insane enough to continue to vote so I can continue to complain.
