It all boils down to this - I'm right, everyone else is wrong, and anyone who disputes this is clearly a dumbfuck.

So you have no idea if the Obama administration has brought about any changes in the way a business operates - other than what you hear from the media?

I can tell you right now that I've seen NO significant change.

ymmv

If it weren't for the media I wouldn't know that Barrack Obama is the president. Tell me Dan, is he?

I tend to agree. I have often observed that in some areas the far left and the far right converge. I see this with freedom of speech and issues related to search and seizure. Unfortunately both American parties are willing to ignore their core principles to pander to their base.

Hank posted this c & p: ". . . It is totalitarian in that it views everything as political and holds that any action by the state is justified to achieve the common good. It takes responsibility for all aspects of life, including our health and well-being and seeks to impose uniformity of thought and action, whether by force or through regulation and social pressure. Everything, including the economy and religion, must be aligned with its objectives. Any rival identity is part of the "problem" and therefore defined as the enemy."

Hank, you just defined Bush/Cheney/Rove. Were they your favorite facists?

Whatsa' matter Hank, don't you remember. Remember both Bush and Rove were quoted as saying "everything is political" and "either you're with us or against us." Pure good ole fashion totalitarianism/fascism.
