Short comment

How do we know that these people Mitchell and Jessen are, or ever were, psychologists? The state of Washington does not list them as licensed in any profession. Government often does not need to comply with standards that everyone else does. Their web site has no psychological information on it whatsoever. They might just be calling themselves psychologists because they can get away with it.

Invasion of the Body Snatchers

This is what Palin and McCain are really about: coercive control over the bodies of others; whether it is young men going off to war or civilians who happen to live in countries at war with the US or young women not wanting to have a baby or convicts on death row. Republican administrations have begun to look like totalitarian, Facist states. There are generally no differences between the parties in taxing and spending but a major difference in terms of priorities. The Republicans must control using any tactic they can. Here, they are using the same tactic as the Taliban. Fear.
