Furthermore, the Democrats rarely return
power since seeking more power is their goal in life.

Politicians in general never return power unless forced to do so, no
matter what their party affiliation.

Sorry all, for the brief return visit. MX's allusion to Orwell's book
might work a bit better had it not been for the 9/11/01 terrorist
attacks, which were not illusory to those of us who worked in NYC at
the time. And for the very real terrorist attacks going on elsewhere,
every day.

Comparing the current state of affairs to the book, "1984," where all
these fictitious wars against Eurasia and Eastasia, is kind of weird.

Funny that a guy from France talks about freedom of speech, when over
there the politicians are more afraid of offending Islamists than even
the Democrats here.

Skylune out.
