••can ye pass the acid test?••

ye who enter here be afraid, but do what ye must -- to defeat your fear ye must defy it.

& defeat it ye must, for only then can we begin to realize liberty & justice for all.

time bomb tick tock? nervous tic talk? war on war?

or just a blog crying in the wilderness, trying to make sense of it all, terror-fried by hate radio and FOX, the number of whose name is 666??? (coincidence?)

it's nice to see king georgie in part admit ted kennedy may have been right to call iraq "bush's vietnam," but differences remain.

bush was speaking only of the current level of attacks on our troops and the high casualties when he said the situation resembles the tet offensive of 1968 because it is before an election, but,

1) tet was 9 months before the election, not one month, and

2) in january '68 gallup poll showed a 56%-28% hawk-dove ratio in the US, which shifted to an even split in march '68 after the offensive, while current public opinion has already shifted over the past year.
