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.

"W is up in the air"
You can't have a war without an enemy. Without a war you can't have a state of emergency. And, without a state of emergency, before you know it, we'd slip right back into that old safe and optimistic state of mind we had during the Clinton era, and then where would we be?
For God's sake, people, think!
