When I began this blog in 2001, I was appalled by President Bush's headlong rush to an illegal war (we were not in fact under attack). As time wore on and Bush began his assault on the Constitution and any people bold enough to criticize, I believed that "the republic is endangered more by actions of our own government than by those of any terrorist." With the election of a high-minded, compassionate, intelligent man like Barack Obama, my fears have ceased.

Inhalation Anthrax Is Diagnosed in Connecticut Woman, 94 . . . It is a baffling case because Mrs. Lundgren, a widow, was hardly an obvious target. "It's difficult to explain how the person contracted anthrax," Mr. Rowland said. '
The details of Mrs. Lundgren's case — an older woman living alone — are oddly similar to those of the mystifying case of Kathy T. Nguyen, a Bronx woman and hospital worker who died on Oct. 31 from inhalation anthrax. . . .
If I had to come up with an answer, I'd guess they both got contaminated mail. I recently received a letter from my congressman. It arrived nearly a month after the date on the letter, which was in mid October. I immediately sent an email and begged not to receive a snail mail reply again. What are they thinking of, sending needless mail from locales where they *know* there was contamination?!?

How do they do that?
