I would like to believe that Bush the Elder was fooled but I do not believe that.

Nor do I! Bush I was well aware of Souter's judicial record but, like "read my lips, no new taxes" he proved us the fool!

TO LURKING DUers (Jack Rabbit and other friendlies)

...you say you on the far left fear corporate power and most here can somewhat appreciate some of that arguement--especially in the cases of Enron, Worldcom and other corporate scandals.
But while some corporate fear is justified, it is in no way as terrifying as big government fear--after all, corporations can be summoned to courts by the trial lawyers and judges your side so appreciates; while government, unless it agrees, cannot!
For others on the DU side, yes, FR does attract a few extremists who believe a gun barrel settles every disagreement but examine your side of the coin and you'll find more of similiar ilk (hate, it seems, can attract all kinds, "Tantaene animis caelestibus irae? (are there such vilent passions in celestial minds?--from Virgil)"
