I will be here tomorrow at least some of the time. Feel free to drop me a line.

It’ll be interesting to see
the next poll, after Obama’s speech really sinks in.

I suspect Clinton’s lead will grow.
Why?
Because I never underestimate the ability of the American public to run blindly from hard truth. It’s the reason so few people with any power to do something have ever come directly out and said that the Iraq war wasn’t about “misreading intelligence,” or to give up the bullshit about “I’d have done it differently if I knew then what I know now…” No one involved, no one, will just come out and say the truth: that Bush, Cheney, et al, are treasonous liars who knew exactly what they were doing from the beginning and a whole bunch of powerful people bought it wholesale because they wanted to shed a lot more blood in revenge for 9/11.
If this country would just admit to its desire to be all powerful and get away with as much murder and oppression as is needed to keep the majority of us fat and happy, we’d maybe be able to fight that tendency effectively.
