been following this story as it developed in New York and Denver

despite their many shortcomings, at times they are sorta indispensable
tho they are considered anathema to many on the left and right in this
country

can u be an effective intelligence organization by giving too much
away publicly and how do you make sure they don't get carried
away--big issues for today

people are right to be skeptical considering the last ten years but it
is what it is

its very easy to spew anarchist or revolutionary rhetoric but in the
long run are the kids chanting we all live in a bully fascist state
gonna save my ass from the fuckheads Bin Ladens of this world.  I
don't think so

and yet even saying that makes me uncomfortable
