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.

Absolutely... I'm a pseudo-republican, but definitely more conservative than most on LJ, and I can only say that I'm horrified by this.

I'm glad to hear it. I do sometimes need the reminder that the "hold on to power at all costs" amorality of certain elements of the present administration is not representative of the vast run of conservatives.
