Anecdotal evidence

BurningBird reports a conversation that we can only hope is going on around the country, not just because it's bad news for Bush but because it means we're not as easily misled as some would have us believe.

Dr. Weinberger, et al

I don't keep track of the causes and movements of du jour variety. Perhaps either or any-a you can explain this "technical" difficult I'm having reading that article:

Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

I'm sure you'll have no trouble figuring that one out, and then all y'all can come back, or go back, or "get!back!!".. to focusing on the really big issues of the day...;-D

MEGO with verbiages of "freedoms", in an interview with Dr. Shirky and other places as well. Seems like people are just about as easily mislead, as they were with the Tripp-D Movement, not long back. (Meaning, I don't think we saw the full Dean, in the previous campaign.) I was reminded of that again today, by a blog by Ms. Devine, who I don't know all that well to comment on at length on.

Too many wolves, thinking/feeling they're protecting the lambs, whilst being lambs themselves attacking both lambs and wolves, it seems to me.

"When people talk about anything ..., their eyes glaze over. It is just like what happens with a full moon. A similar metamorphosis is contained in Lon Chaney's "Wolfman", where it was said:

'Even a man who is pure of heart and says his prayers by night may become a wolf when the wolf bane blooms and the moon is shining bright.'"

Then, there's also the daylight-moonlight of Spring...
