I can bear witness to the ill effects of our newfound xenophobia. Good people, who are a credit to the country, have a freaking rough time getting legit'.
I hates its! You know how easy it is for someone with ill-will to get in. (Which is fine, actually, because I really don't want a big ass wall, or fences and shit swaddling my country, and I'd rather that there just weren't many with ill-will.) Sorta-Similar to the, "when all guns are outlawed..." argument, which you know has at least a nugget of truth to it. And then, the digital stuff is more important than a lot of folks think, I reckon, and is has high-impact on the future of our country. That's more of a group-deal that needs attention from many, more than a "does the prez IM" type deal, but still. Look how much influence the president now has. It's pretty freaky. You gotta hope for balance this next time around. Having the deck stacked towards one side or another, just causes problems. Hopefully, no matter who's in there, the freaking invasions of privacy and whatnot will get scaled back. That's also a real concern in the "digital age" (as the history books will, or maybe already are, call[ing] it). Write in Ron Paul! j/k-- Obama seems best, as RP would probably bust a USSR-like collapse, and we really needs us someone young, and full of change. I honestly don't care if it's out of the skillet and into the flames. Heh; BO for PR and RP for VP, that would be cool. Impossibly cool. :] Sending some energy your way, LarStar, den -- if it keeps them out, it keeps us in On Thu, Jul 17, 2008 at 7:17 PM, Larry Lyons wrote: > In terms of technology, look at it this way, McCain has to get an aide to > send an email for him.
