   Other than the House stabbing us in the back last night?

   Not much.  Oh, Barry Bonds got 755, too.

     I’m finding it more and more difficult to identify as a dem in Indiana. Only two of five of our so-called Democrats here voted no. WTF!!!

   I posted the last part of my transcription of Howard Dean’s YKos keynote address.

   this letter went out first thing this morning…

      Dear Senators and Congressmen,

       I will say this once and once only.

       That both the Senate and the House both approved sweeping new, almost certainly unconstitutional, surveillance powers as dictated by the White House, after it has become completely clear that the Bush administration has no respect for the rule of law or the principles upon which the United States was founded, is a clear betrayal of our country.

       I see George Bush, Dick Cheney and their fellow criminals as the most dangerous leaders the United States has ever been cursed with, and desperately pray every single day for their removal. I have now added the United States Senate and House of Representatives to that list.

       To say that I am disappointed is a huge understatement. To be blunt, I am both horrified and disgusted – horrified at the shredding of civil liberties and disgusted that our elected leaders support our national descent into fascism.

       Sincerely,
