No, you and Don Rumsfeld are. I can not stand this TV-induced mantra of "it's a different world". Bullshit. September 11...? Okay, September 11, 1973: U.S. CIA assassinates freely elected president Allende of the Phillipines in a U.S.-initiated coup. That day they installed Pinochet as the "new president". We see where that choice landed everyone. There are many September 11's, all around the world...every day. "First responder", "domestic preparedness", "homeland security"...they are all Orwellian non-speak. Firefighters and police are going to have to give up their glory-by-association sooner or later -- sooner works for me. I do believe you may be on the paranoia train. Lucky for you you're not alone. Too bad for us. -- Gary -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
