"All of that compels the conclusion that Congress -- regardless of which party controls it -- is either indifferent to or in favor of this unchecked illegal government spying. What other conclusion could a rational person possibly reach?"

blackmail, extortion, and violence ? ? ?

uh oh, don't open that door, glennster ! ! ! deep politics is a sticky morass from which you can not escape ! ! !

hee hee hee

well, um, yeah, same pattern in these black arts they practice upon us; who they are supposed to be using their black arts to protect, maybe its their black hearts...

ho ho ho

but, um, it is the *same* pattern that occurs in essentially ALL gummint laws, polices, and actions where power elite interests are concerned...

ha ha ha

and given that power elite greedy slime have their beak tasting EVERY aspect of our lives: from rethug/bush cabal insiders invoking no-childs-behind-left-unspanked bullshit which enriches *their* test makers, course prep makers, textbook publishers, and other legitimized scams; to any of a ZILLIONS of dollars in mil-ind-kongressional komplex fraud (geez, why is it we see *one* headline/story about that, but never see anyone perp-walked on the 6 o'clock news ?); to any of ZILLIONS of dollars in housing bubble and other financial frauds (still semi-legal!), and (aside from a few unlucky lynndie englands of wall street) the majority of fraudsters skate away unscathed...

ak ak ak

funny how *that* process ALWAYS works...

over...

and

over...

and

and

over again...

funny that...

you'd almost think The System (tm) was *setup* of the power elites, by the power elites, and for the power elites...

hmmm hmmm hmmm

speaking of banks (as one kamper was), do your banks now 'require' you to take off your hat and sunglasses when you enter their sacrosanct edifices of greed ? ? ?

vat a cuntry ! ! !

1. has anyone ever seen powwow and sysprog in the same room ? ? ? i'm just sayin'...

2. for the record: in spite of past weak and spiteful attempts by some of the usual suspects to link me to presumed sockpuppetry, etc (ganjaguerrilla, et al); moi has never done such a thing; i am art, and art is me, and no one but me is he(or her), and no one else wants to be me (if they are smart)...

hee hee hee

3. i'm getting a little nonplussed by kampers horning in on my unbounded cynicism territory, (or 'recognition of deep political reality', as i like to think of it); on any given blog swarm-tribe, there is room for only one crazed and delusional jester, and that fool is me... quit stealing my act...

ho ho ho

4. hairyer: that extant 'legal' precept -evidence of actual innocence not admissable on most appeals as not being 'legally relevant'- has always been a jaw-dropper for me... this is simply a 'natural' extension of the besides-the-point issue of actual, meta-physical guilt/innocence; and the *real*, important issue of upholding The Law (tm), and not being 'embarassed' by its bad decisions...

(instead, codifying the lies as law)...

ha ha ha

5. to all the fuzzy soft bunny wabbits who read salon: STOP chewing my peanut patch pegs down to the ground, or i'm using some #6 shot wabbit-repellent on you fucking bastards... cute or no cute, i'm having wabbit stew if you don't stop eating the shit out of the peanut plants... fuckin' fat, bob-tailed, long-eared rats... i'm warning you ! ! !

hee hee hee

they WANT Big Daddy (tm), they WANT to be told what to do, what is right/wrong, what is good/bad, what to kill/die for...

ho ho ho

this ain't no factoid li'l me made up, this is actual factuals of psychological/sociological studies that have been done over time...

ha ha ha

like i commented previously on this subject: it presumably has a high-survival potential for less-capable nekkid apes to blindly follow more-capable nekkid apes...

ak ak ak

thus, that infernal genetic predisposition remains; thus, our eternal struggle to kill Big Daddy (tm) off and live free...
