98. The answer to why the Bushies still want a Congress (for now):

Edited on Fri Mar-24-06 02:43 PM by Nothing Without Hope

"No truly sophisticated proponent of repression would be stupid enough to shatter the façade of democratic institutions." -- Murray B. Levin, Political Hysteria in America, 1971

It'e happened again and again in history:

"I believe there are more instances of the abridgment of the rights of the people by the gradual and silent encroachments of those in power than by violent and sudden usurpations." -James Madison, fourth US president (1751-1836)
