16. Hope is not for fools
Tell it to Ghandi.

We may never get the MSM to report the truth, but hope is part of continuing the fight. Hope is what makes people keep the pressure on and keep digging for the truth.

I see no benefit in trashing people's hopes.

Many of us here hoped Boxer would challenge the Ohio vote. Many others said "stop hoping, fools." Boxer challenged the Ohio vote.

Many of us here hoped Kerry and Boxer would vote no on confirming Condoleeza Rice. Many others told us we were fools again, and told us to stop hoping. Kerry and Boxer voted no on confirming Condoleeza Rice.

So what is the purpose of telling people they are fools for having hope?
