Now *that*'s a frightening thought. If they ran together, they really
might win. And then an attack, even a nuclear attack, on Iran would
be just plain likely.
One of Derrick Jensen's (www.derrickjensen.org) comments this last Monday
was that he suspects G.W.Bush to be a closet Luddite. How else could he
have done so much to bring down the US empire? If there'd be any bright
side (I have to look for one) to such a McCain-Lieberman prospect,
it'd be that they would take us much further down that path.
But we would do terrible harm along the way...
