You know what i really think is sad, is that it will probably be just
the contrary. With an idiot like Bush in the whitehouse, anything can
happen, and a lot of people are all for declaring an outright attack
on whoever did this. I keep telling them you can't declare war on a
terrorist group, only on a country. But all everybody is thinking
is 'war war war...'

And it's very true, we are hurtling through the void with absolutely
no grasp at anything concrete.
