( greg burch speaks approvingly of W's speech)

I dunno. Doesn't "Department of Homeland Security" make your skin crawl?
That and all the fawning from the opposition and the media makes me feel
like an extra in one of those dystopian stories where fascists take over
by wrapping themselves in the trappings of democracy under fire.

Although so far the proposals from the gov't have been reasonable (some over-
reaction, but nothing irreversible or incomprehensible), watching all this
reminds me that the US gov't is a threat to human life and liberty far
outweighing
these terrorists. Their intents aren't as bad (currently), but the capacity
is far
greater.

I agree the speech was moving.
