You'd probably be very surprised at how little debate, especially public debat, there is in the US right now as the rights this country has always stood for are one by one being dismantled in the name of protecting us from ... whom? Fortunately, everywhere I go I run into people who are talking the same - about absurd requests for military expenditures to protect us from enemies whom are unkown being asked for by a man who was appointed president by the Supreme Court his father established But the media, which IS consensual reality in America, expresses none of these doubts. More crows are coming to roost on this dynasty's perch, however. With the failure of Enron brewing into a true confidence-shattering scandal, one can only hope that Danny Cassilaro didn't die in vain. (Which reminds me: while search engines can catalog our public posts, all of our private email is also available to the government. Even ISPs who wish the best for human freedom undoubtedly have - through the process of providing a reliable service - many copies of every email send or received by their constituents. )
