So here I am, getting ready to travel again. Oh joy, oh rapture, oh bliss. At least the B.H. is at the other end of this particular journey.
I note with alarm--but not surprise, because I rather suspected that this would happen--that the current administration is looking for ways to postpone the election in case of terrorist attacks. Like terrorist attacks themselves, I do not believe that this is a partisan issue--I would like to believe that any Republicans reading this are as horrified as I am that an elected government would consider interfering with the regular workings of American democracy (clunky though they may be) for anything less than total catastrophe. Such a thing would be nothing less than the establishment of a tyranny.

I'm probably closer to a liberal than a conservative. From that point of view, this administration's actions are flat out horrifying.
I make jokes about the Bush Dynasty, but really, what's next? Presidente-For-Life Bush? South America (all apologies) here we come and all without the need to leave the country.
Right now the terrorists are a threat to individual lives, while it's the administration's reactions that seem to be the real threat to the country. Ugh, in that light, the terrorists are winning.
