It's about me.

>>> That's right, it's about you... and your SUV and your son and
daughter's SUVs and your climate controlled house and your
multiple tv's, dvd's, cell phones, handhelds, computers and
related apparati. It's about the fourth mall with all the same
chains w/in five miles of your climate controlled house. It's
about the third gourmet superstore w/in 1.5 miles that you
need to drive your all terrain all wheel drive mobile command
center to, to pick up a loaf and a quart. It's about... alot of
things, but you're right, it all starts with "you," and your
ability to put your well healed boot on the neck of anyone
who might challenge your geo-political dominance. Iraq is
just a little demonstration for anyone who might be getting
ideas after watching (and watching and watching) that loop
of the twin towers turned into dust. <<<
keith again:
> Nope. It's just about me. And atman and obin.
°° reminds me of that recent press-confererence where colin powell was asked
whether the usa will change their climate-policy. powell answered that he
does not understand the question because "even in this policy-field the usa
are the world's leading nation." when the journalists took a laugh, powell
was kind of indignant.
one day it'll rain in california....
