Amazing watching two Bush-entwined blots on our life - Nova and Frontline - NSA and Stem Cell. |

Sitting here watching how screwed up things were over the last 8 years, from enabling 911 through dysfunctional intelligence sharing and then the rape of our privacy by overreaction and hubris....then how he dashed the hopes and lives of thousands and thousands when he vetoed the Stem Cell bill.
It all just reinforced in me what a tiny, but hugely evil, man he was - and if not inherently evil, evil in the impact of his ignorance.

"Criminal" is the one word historians will use to describe the Shrub's actions.
The real question is, what will ultimately be done about those crimes?

we'd enter a new age immediately.
Just imagine never having to hear another word from the likes of DeMint, Inhofe, Rush, et al....
On Edit:
The national IQ would rise by 20 points overnight.

3. I watched the NSA thing up to not needing FISA warrants. |
|
And then the safety of my tv was endangered so I changed the channel to protect it and my throwing arm.

5. It's the suits that have screwed up the NSA. The grunts do a hell of a job. |

6. Agreed. The show made it clear. The whole CIA/FBI disconnect was damming. |
