the art of not knowing when enough is enough

Ahhh - this time I think (read: HOPE!!!!) ol' GW has gone too far (for the 69th time!!!). In addition to his current superhero powers of listening in on our phone calls and e-mails, and being able to detain us indefinately on nothing but his word, and being able to use "tough interrogation techniques" on us, and being able to ignore any laws of the land he so desires with a simple signing statement, and being able to ignore all reality no matter what the body count, he now claims the right to read our snail mail too!:

lol - maybe because we're both fabulous, sexy cooks!!! Or maybe we both are (at least until recently) just gluttons for endless years of failure and let-downs...

ps: I imagine a lot of normally conservative white males like your esteemed self are going through similarly confusing readjustments and second thoughts of their political heroes given the unmitigated economic, social and foreign policy mess our supposed "compassionate conservative" leaders have foisted on this nation...
