( OT ) A terrible sense of dread filtering across America
 

There's a terrible sense of dread filtering across America at the moment
and it's not simply because of the continuing fear of terrorism and the fact
that
the nation is at war.
It's more frightening than that. It grows out of the suspicion that we all
may be passengers in a vehicle that has made a radically wrong turn
and is barreling along a dark road, with its headlights off
with someone behind the wheel who may not know how to drive.

Does the vehicle also have a stuck accelerator pedal, bad brakes, a broken
clutch, four bald tires and no seat belts? (if so, it sounds like an old
Ford station wagon I had when I was 18... )

I used to have a smoking Vega. Bad valve seats. It was fine when you went
down the road but if you stop at a light and take off it would smoke like a
*******. I used to always say " With a mighty rev of the engine and a puff
of smoke! Hi Ho Vega!!!" Then take off leaving everyone in the four way
intersections blinded and gaging from smoke. The whole car load off us kids
would be laughing like hell :))

Is it like the sense of dread I see filtering across America where a guy
with no idea where he really wants to go tries to snatch the wheel, and then
decides to stop, then go, then go left....no -- make that right, NO LEFT!
ARRRRGH!

"speach" is the way you might incorrectly spell "speech" when you're in a
hurry to post an item so that you can into the bathroom and take a badly
needed ****. All clear now ?

Thanks for above link. I'm always looking for additions to my
collection of "Biased Websites Written by Those Who Have No Clue About
Their Topic."

It's amazing the number of people that have gotten through the
educational system in this country yet don't understand the Electoral
College or the fact that deadlines for counting votes are there for a
reason.

Point of fact: Some of the Supreme court judges have a conflict of

Q: That's completely bizarre! That sounds like rank political
favoritism! Did the justices have any financial interest in the case?
A: Scalia's two sons are both lawyers working for Bush. Thomas's

Bush administration.

Q: Why didn't they recuse themselves?
A: If either had recused himself, the vote would be 4-4, and the

RHF, if you are going to use condescending
expressions like "Class Dismissed," at least
learn the correct names of the things you're
lecturing about. There's no such thing as
the "Electorial College." Also, it you're
going to use hoity-toityisms like "per se"
learn to spell them correctly. "Per Say" is
gibberish.

By the way, is there any logic the words
you choose to capitalize? I think at one
time it was customary or at least acceptable
to capitalize nouns, but you seem to capitalize
nouns, verbs, adverbs more or less at random.

A lot of the doom and gloom stuff heard on private american shortwave

things to worry about, to some extent. Look at what happened to the USSR
and
their own quagmire in Afghanistan.

Scratching Head? Whats all this got to do with chili, eggs and pickled
herring? Oh! and farting too?

Bush with his finger on the button is a pretty scary
thought in a world where things might suddenly not be going in the U.S.'s
favour.

From what I've undestood Pete, I could be wrong. It is 'classified' as to the

You figure, there's submarine/silos/etc.

This is true, but since there's only one person that can give the order
(unless he is taken out, in which case it follows a line of procession layed
out in the Constitution), then the president does, at least figuratively,
have his finger on the button.
