When the history of this time is finally written our grandchildren
will be asking:

"Did you do anything to try to stop the neo -cons?"

"Did you realize the Constitution was under direct threat from them?"

It is under such threat that I hope we'll all be asked these questions

1. i doubt it
judging from my kids history books at school over the years.
the books just gloss over great events, with no indepth study. just doesn't seem like much interest in American History.

3. "After the Death of Christ, there was a period of readjustment
that lasted approximately 2000 years." (Vonnegut)

That's what the history books will say.
