My how the perspective changes with time

Kay,

I suggest YOU read what you wrote. You may have intended to make your post "nonpartisian", but that's not how it really ended up.

I'll repost my snippet/quote from your initial post:

"That candidate" is clearly a reference to Obama. And despite your claim in your first sentence that this isn't about one cadidtate, the other sentence your wrote contradicts your first point...And since you made a reference to one candidate, I made one to the other side, in the interest of "fair and balanced".
Had you left out the sentence refering to "that candidate", I wouldn't have posted the comments I did.

Instead of scolding me and telling me how I am to respond to your post, I suggest next time if you want to make a post that is truly unbiased, you don't reference one candidate or the other. And if you do, expect a rebuttal, because if someone else doesn't post one, I will.

Remember them Kay? LMAO (nuff said).

HCR was written in 2000 because Bush and pals were already getting bills pretty scary bills lined up already right after his first usurpation of the Presidency. The patriot act was already written and just waiting for 9/11 for example. Arizona didn't like it - Oklahoma has already very loudly asserted that they are sovereign and to leave them the hell alone about NAFTA. State governments are getting edgy again and I think in a pinch, many will go against a federal dictatorship.

Now as far as changing perspective -- if we didn't have some people in charge that had some 1969 protest and spooky associations in top offices both in the WH and corporations, I would just be sitting here wondering who the hell was in those offices. If you went to college during the Nam era, chances are you were at protests of some sort, smoking dope and dropping acid via the frosting of cupcakes handed around at protests. We joined all sorts of groups - look at Green Peace. LOL. Guilty. Have I changed....uh, LOL, not that much but you won't see me chaining myself to a freakin' tree, that's for sure.

The fact is - I feel more comfortable with people in office that were Rads in the 1960's because when something major comes down, they will be the most likely to revert to their activist natures and do something about it -- hopefully FOR us.

We can see by some of the shills in office now who never associated with "improper" people, did "improper" things, that they are just too cowardly, naive to the point of stupidity, and too easily intimidated to do much of anything other than what they are told by those with more power than them. They just sold us out on a bail-out that they lacked the skin to prevent. Don't want any more sheep shit to clean up off of the voting floor this time around. We need to hire the good ole fashioned rads who have been on the streets for us and know how to say "NO FREAKIN' WAY".

There's still a lot of involvement of students, Kay -- they don't have free speech on campuses like we did, so you won't see as much going on there. Small protests here and there but nothing major. Off campus most of the protests have a lot of college kids - but the media is pretty muchly prohibited from airing that kind of thing right now. You'll see most of it on You-Tube, although some on there disappear real fast, too now.

Now I'm not going to pretend there's the same percentage that are hot and active as there used to be, but I think we are gonna see a change in that real, real soon. Even those who are clueless will follow along as the leaders wrap up more people - the leaders are pretty solid and they will be able to round up the herd and make them stampede, and that's all we really need is the cattle drivers, LOL. That might sound sick, but it's actually pretty spot on.
