Has the tide truly changed? No, but the water is ickier, as expected when oil and blood spill.

Will America's right-turn soon hit a dead end? No, because America lost its willingness for self-examination and critical self-analyis long ago. As Reagan exploited, we want to FEEL GOOD ABOUT OURSELVES. War is the balm for the masses in a pained post-911 landscape. We are talking about people who by and large embrace a national anthem full of war imagery. We have escapist unreality shows to soothe us in our bondage. Like Winston in "1984", we love Big Brother. God Bless America, Britney isn't a virgin after all, Earl!

Will conservatives admit that they have supported a corrupt presidency? Have conservatives EVER admitted to being wrong? Watch the rationalizations and denial pile up like so many dirty undies. Watch them get away with it.

Is there hope for a Democratic Senate/House in the next election? My 8 Ball says "It is not likely".

Finally, will Bush be held accountable for his lies? See my response from two questions ago. :-)

Has America awaken or is it still sleepwalking? Sleepwalking. We showed signs of waking up in the 90's after sleepwalking in the 80's under Reagan and Bush. We were shocked back to sleep, where we are safe. The rest of us are stuck in a nightmare.
