28. Getting closer...
Edited on Thu Sep-21-06 11:27 AM by Tyler Durden
1. Definitely a judgement call. I was merely curious. At 53 with 36 years of political activism behind me, I am beaten but unbowed. SURE I believe it's possible to turn things around, but I'm stupid enough to buy lottery tickets, too.

As to the "tipping point" though; yeah, I think we've tipped. The proof will be over the next 3 years: if Bush isn't up on charges by the Summer of 2009, I'd say that's proof we've tipped.

2. Actually, no. I think Fidel and Stalin might make good buddies in the afterlife, and I don't think ANYTHING positive about Stalin. Someone had to end the Batisita "reign," too bad it was like what happened to the Shah. The whole thing could have been helped by us...instead, we listened to the Rich Right Wing Cuban Expats in Miami who just wanted their shit back.

Truly a long and dreary tragedy.
