Reply #7: Anyone feel like we're seeing a mafia-style family war breaking out?...

[cascadiance]

Between different mob families with various different agendas that are all infecting our government in different ways?

We press a few buttons, like forcing the release of the torture memos, and then we force some of them to get desperate and take others down to keep the big eye in the sky from focusing on them.

I think what is sad is that is that there doesn't really to appear to be many innocent parties here worth defending. Whether it is Harman's ties to AIPAC, and working with Gonzalez and Bushco to tear down our protections of privacy with domestic spying, or Porter Goss and others that want to try to defend their involvement with torture and other breakages of law, it is very hard to know where to focus one's efforts to make sure that ALL of the bad apples are forced out into the open, and not take sides of one bad apple vs. the other, but make sure that they all go down and that we have some newer folks that we can put in, hopefully with some reasonable experience to set things right in a time which might be tumultuous while we have to rebuild such a cancer-ridden government that we have in place now that has been sick for so many years!
