> And just so you understand why I don't want to bring politics into this, it's beacause I am a very conservative Republican who has only lived in very liberal cities. All I hear day in and day out is negative things about what I stand for and believe. I am extremely touchy and sensitive about people being negative towards leaders I support. And now that I live in DC, politics and political bickering is all I hear non-stop. It is the last thing I want to talk about on here. The internet is my portal outside of politically-centered DC. >>
I understand completely, thuso.
And I will share with you that not only am I convinced that Mr.Bush does not read these boards, I am also convinced (well, almost) that the mysterious scope of NSA snooping without a warrant does not extend to this quadrant of the Internet. So, I agree: this is a place for us all to relax and not worry about what Mr. Bush assures us is strictly limited and constitutional surveillance. He hates snoopers almost as much as I do, as evidenced by his less than cooperative attitudes towards probes into Federal Katrina responses and Abramoff-related investigations, not to mention recent reports that many White House e-mails relevant to the Libby investigation have somehow vanished, leaving a hole in the national archives (be it known that I am not an archivist and that I do not think it wise to hold officials too closely to account). And no offense to any snoopers who may have wandered here by mistake, of course. I was only making an 'I'-statement when I said I disliked you.
