This, more than anything, is what the right realized in the wake of the 2000 election: in a moment of chaos or crisis, they can do anything -- *anything*, no matter how overtly criminal or gross -- & just smooth it over later with "both sides" pablum. "Let's not fight, let's look forward," etc.

Final thought. I was a youngling watching this, Willis saying "You guys are NASA, you have guys think stuff up..." stayed with me. That's called text book showing of soft power. You give it up..dangerous things will happen. Unless someone else takes up the tab. Rule the waves #EU
