"What kind of a person tells us what we can and cannot say and whom we must be in agreement with?..."

Well said, Mr. Tyrrell! This is the money quote in a great piece, but may I be so bold as to suggest that "bully" does not fully describe these miscreants and their behaviors. May I humbly submit that one easily ascribe these same bullies the fascist moniker, for in essence are they not attempting to shut up, discredit, and otherwise stifle any dissent from their views and impose THEIR agenda?

p>Of course, it would be divisive to point this out and the chosen one has already spoken on that subject! br> -- Stuart Reed br> Grosse Pointe Woods, Michigan /p>

How right on are Bob Tyrrell's comments about elitist, leftist Democrats, and their colossal moral superiority, especially on the heals of yesterday's Orwellian joke of a Senate show trial at the Judiciary Committee? Orwell himself would have been rendered awestruck by the sheer audacity of the backwards blame game that was spewed by these pompous frauds. What a sight, the kindergarten class, once again, chastising the teachers and the principal.

p>Never mind the lucid, intelligent, and adult explanations on the global economics and politics of oil, offered by these pillared oil executives. No, they were political fodder, there to be slandered, scorned and ridiculed. A true Roman Circus, complete with C-Span coverage. (I recall a Star-Trek episode that tracts this story line) Of no consequence was the fact that this Congress, and its predecessors, for over 30 years, have engaged in gross malfeasance, that boarders on the criminal, in their failure to promulgate an intelligent, coherent energy policy, necessary to sustain our $12 Trillion economy. And now, we can add food shortages and riots, courtesy of these same superiorists. How much more of this moral superiority can we take? Oh, and let's not forget their fellow travelers in the MSM, that have perpetuated the Orwellian story line. Not to depress, just to close the loop here, our own candidate, John McCain, suffers from this same strain of moral superiority. Have a nice day! br> --
