Ah yes. But as you said, "Those who control the present control the
past." I assume you used the quote because you believed it.


I beleive it's possible. I don't believe it's happening any more so than
usual with Washington. Compared to what Bush tried to do, it's minor in
comparison.

Keep in mind then that those in control of the present will be doing
the 'exposing of the facts and lies', i.e., controlling the past.


Facts are facts. They're not something that can be controlled. Opinions and
attitudes can be manipulated, but not facts.

To me, the attitudes I see are, in fact, giving Obama a free ride.
Hopefully the country will wake up to what he is doing before it is
too late. Why do you suppose so many of his appointee positions are
unfilled. Could it be that he doesn't want those doing the jobs
scrutinized, so he appoints another 'czar' to do the job?


By whom? Certainly not Fox or CNN or ABC or even MSNBC. All of them,
especially the latter cite examples of poor decisions. I don't count Fox as
reliable, since they tend to overlook the facts.

Most of his non-filled posts are due to hold-ups by Congress... again, it's
those pesky facts that get in the way of opinion. He got rid of the drug
czar and stopped making silly claims like there's a "war on terror."

As to waking up, I believe that we woke up (finally) after nearly a decade
of heavy-duty corruption and manipulation. Whether or not we stay awake is
an open question.

Agree all you will.


Yoda?
