Read this today:

Atty. Gen. John Ashcroft's announced desire for camps for U.S. citizens he deems to be "enemy combatants" has moved him from merely being a political embarrassment to being a constitutional menace.

Makes me a little more nervous about my name being on a list for attending a peace rally. . .

Oh. Dear. God.

Those who will not learn from history are apparently condemned to be appointed to high office and drag the rest of us through it again.

Do you think they'll at least put all us likeminded weirdos together? We could call it camp fanfic. They'll force us to watch nothing but Murder She Wrote, but we shall perservere and find the slash anyway!

Gah! How can he still have this idea? How does he not know that the world is onto the camps thing and it's never, ever good? At least get a new horrific nightmare vision of liberty betrayed of your very own. Christ.

Dear god, the very thought of slashing Tom Bosley with the good natured town doctor is enough to turn me into a political activist intent on bringing Ashcroft down. You just know there would be some debate over who's better, Tom Bosely or the guy they got to replace him.

We'll be stuck watching Nickelodeon and fighting over whether or not crossovers of Gilligan's Island and The Secret Life of Dobie Gillis would create a rip in Bob Denver's time/space continuum.

As for Ashcroft - the man never seemed entirely stable to me. One wonders how the hell the guy functions in modern society without curling up into a fetal position. =P

My work here is done. :)

And I agree with you about the lack of stable. His tripod is definitely lacking a leg. But I suspect he manages by making the rest of us curl up into a fetal position instead. Then he can just step over us.
