2006: A lookback

January: The elections campaigning began in earnest, with Nancy Pelosi's pronouncement that the Dems intended to win and END the Culture of Corruption

December: After having to make the 'hard decisions' that come with the house leadership, Pelosi has had to pass over a number of her favorites, because of various felonies, misdemeanors and obvious ethics violations.
- And the last of the higher profile chairmen, John Conyers, was gifted a slap on the wrist for abuse of staff personnel and resources for personal gain.
* * * **
January: Continued LOUD MOANING, by those who dont want to be bothered with actually THINKING about it, about abuse of civil rights being eroded by the Patriot Act.
- No one, of course KNOWS anyone it has affected... But... {loud panting} IT MIGHT!
December: The FEC lets a sometime semi-pro Race Car driver off the hook, with a letter saying dont do it again, for having a "Bush Cheney 04" sticker on his car, He could have been fined up to $50,000.
- Bet it wouldnt have even been noticed if he had sponsor stickers to put on his car.
Gee, do you REALLY think John {revered former POW and current irresponsible asshole} McCain has a chance in hell of getting the GOP nomination?

More to come... because there's TONS of this sort of thing

 

This just in:

If you want to gripe about US meddling in privacy, then you {rhetorical} should be worrying about this!

 

Thats not good at all, we are becoming a police state more and more everyday.

 

No we arent... that's not what I meant.
I meant the US is snooping into information that shouldnt even be considered relevant.
Besides, take a CLOSE look at what Great Britain does.

However... since there's such a stigma against 'profiling', perhaps that's why the snooping seems universal.

 

I believe we are becoming a police state along with Britain. With ID cards, chips being injected into your body, the loss of Habeus Corpus, and the threat of North American Union which will be the end of the US Consitution.
