so if you are so aware of what life was like in the Soviet bloc why do
you compare this current administration to what your relatives suffered
under.

"I'm not a political party partisan nor have I been Limbaugh-tomized so
my disdain for those in government leadership who break/ignore the law
transcends party lines."

could have fooled me.

"I do wonder if there is something similar to Godwin's Law that can be
invoked when one is discussing the actions of a Republican controlled
government and the rejoinder is "well Clinton did/said..".
As if one excuses the other. I'll have to hit the google later and see
what I can find <grin>."

we'll just call it McFatridge's Law for lack of a better name. besides
I'm just pointing a facts in evidence that seem to escape folks when
rant against the current administration.. Based upon your recent
comments I would imagine that you are pleased with opposition research
being performed by the Clinton's oops sorry didn't mean to mention their
names.

for those unfamiliar with Godwin's law it was postulated by Mike Godwin
back in 1990.  It states "*"As an online discussion grows longer, the
probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one.""
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin's_law

"*But then I'm sure the tens of thousands of fine, honest, hard working
American citizens that woke up one morning just a few decades ago to
find their homes and businesses taken by the government and themselves
loaded onto buses and shipped to internment camps just because their
last names were Nakamura, Shimizu, etc. never imagined that would happen
to them either."

nor did the thousands of German and Italians who suffered the same
thing.
guess you weren't aware of that.

well have fun at work. which I've been meaning to ask you about, what do
you do for vbgov.com? I couldn't find an introductory message from you
in the listserv archives telling the list about yourself
