Damn, if only you were in Congress and could make them stop! Dirk, that’s an excellent thumbnail of how the Security State operates nowadays.

These philodoxic automatons simply have not got a simple clue about pretty much everything. They are Cliff-notes sophists, automatically claiming anyone who does not fully embrace this cluster boink of mortgaged utopia is "anti-government". Opinion, of course, is fact in this dumb-ass day. Which, come to think of it, awards the Kafka Prize of All time to the aborning Security State. The Vast Font of Foolhardy Opinion monitors the streaming opinions of the citizen in search of dangerous opinions to fight against. Needless to say, the symbols that back up their opinions are mined properly for explosive results. It would be comic if it was not so insufficiently absurd.

Lacking any firm principles on which to base their arguments, they simply discount and disparage. I'm happy to see increasing interest in the Waco massacre. There is still hope that both the involved Federal officials -- beginning with Janet Reno -- and media zealots are called to account for their obvious crimes.

But really Jim, maybe you should cool it with all these "chilling polemics" because it just makes folks feel bad. After they've voted for lying thugs and murderous tyrants, they don't want to be reminded of their own complicity in the evil going on around them. Poor Mr. Day probably can't sleep at night pondering how much blood is on his hands. You're just not looking at the Big Picture.... Meanwhile, Arthur Silbur had this to say: "I urge you to read Jim Bovard's piece in its entirety: "A Lethal Hypocrisy." Set aside the time to read it with care, and more than once." But, Mr. Silbur seems to go in for chilling polemics and writings that tear down our glorious leaders. Hell, if wasn't for these bastards, Americans would have to rob their neighbors and kill foreigners on their own. They just do what they've been elected to do and then they sugarcoat it so people like Mr. Day can feel righteous. Bovard doesn’t think much of civilized society.

Note, the guy doesn't actually counter any of your points, because he can't. Like most graduates of the public school system, he doesn't know how to think, only WHAT to think and how to parrot what he's been taught. His mind responded to your book like a computer encountering an illegal operation. It crashed. Those excerpts make it sound like a great book!
