    dear GC -

    as always we agree in substance - and just perhaps not in style - or as my grandma likes to say: Today I don't feel like a bloodbath so i will make fun of you - And believe me - there are forceful warriors on the left who might think, that a Jon Stewart could be much more effective than a Glenn Greenwald (oh - i didn't write that - the devil - ah - some Repugs made me) and

    you also have to believe me that nothing is much more hurtful for a Repug or a lawyer to be laughed at and if you still don't believe it just ask Glenn - and to get serious -

    Ondolette - i still don't get it why a grown-up promotes a 'do nothing plan' because he believes in the fairy tale of a little boy crying wolf - while his friends complain that nothing had been done before and if a 'the sky is falling guy' rants against a 'the sky is falling mentality' because it's not about national security - but about the economy that's... well... definitely 'awesome'!
