It's just as easy to assume there was evil intent as it is to assume it was an
error.  I prefer to give him the benefit of the doubt.

So you're saying that Bush, Cheney, McCain and Palin are all "greedy, power
hungry and dishonest?"  Excellent.  I knew we could fing common ground if we
worked on it long enough.  I commend your honesty.

Now as to Obama, he's a politician so I will never completely trust him.  But
I believe he's basically honest, patriotic and a decent person.  He's also
more intelligent and learned than pretty much the entire right-wing,
Republican base combined, which will come in handy while trying to undo the
terrible damage Bush has done.

I notice you haven't yet responded to this comment.  An oversight I trust.

Do you think all Democrats agree on these matters?

Perhaps I should have said, "using equipment and systems which currently
exist."

I looked at this and it apparently has nothing to do with HIPAA.  Please
explain.

I never heard the expression before.  Believe what you will.

You assume more zealoutry than there is.  I make no bones about the fact I'm a
liberal Democrat.  However, unlike ideological Republicans, I actually support
some members of the other party.

It was an unfortunate choice of words, but the point was (and everyone knows
it) that the CIA was concerned that right-wing crazies would try to recruit
returning veterans.  I don't know how old you are, but I recall what happened
when thousands of veterans returned from Vietnam to a country that did almost
nothing to help physically and emotionally wounded victims of another
senseless war.  There were a number of those folks who got sucked into serious
hate groups.  Does that mean that Vietnam vets are terrorists?  No, but some
were made easy targets for extremist propaganda, at least partly due to
governmental failure to give them the support they both needed and deserved.

BTW, it has always been a source of disgust and embarrassment to me that a
small group anti-war activists spat on US soldiers as they returned from that
war.  They should have saved their saliva for the politicians (of both
parties) who sent them there in the first place.  Veterans should be treated
as heros, regardless what role they play in any war.

Well, you have to admit that people like "Heckovajob" Brown made it easy to
do.

Uh, no.  We don't pick on civil servants or army privates -- just jackass
appointees who allowed a city to drown while they looked for a good place to
eat and that sort of stuff.

You figure every Democrat is a "left wing extremist?"

It beats clinging to most other stuff.
