I didn't say anything about Cheney being part of a 'conspiracy.' Nor did I say anyone else was.

You're right, you never used the word "conspiracy", to me though, you implied it numerous times either by words or silence in response to various posts.

The government has moved from assuming the authority to take a citizen's life without due process

The President the Congress and the people have found no fault with that made no substantial complaint about it and there now exists no place to file a complaint.

The Executive and Legislative branches, on all levels, has ceded power to the Judicial branch.

Your world seems so hopeless and dark, I'm glad I don't share your views on the state of our nation. You appear to see evil in the hearts of most of our judiciary. I just don't agree with you.

Your world seems so hopeless and dark, ...

My world is anything but dark. But hope is like fear, it is based on emotions that create expectations of what might be not what is, so I leave hope and fear to the superstitious. It requires making too many biased assumptions.

I'm glad I don't share your views on the state of our nation.

Your examples of my "view" are based on the assumption that I see some coordinated conspiracy. That seems to be your bias towards me.

You appear to see evil in the hearts of most of our judiciary. I just don't agree with you.

Evil exists in the hearts of every human being. My view of the judiciary in this country is based on rulings they have made and opinions they have written. I don't recall stating a percentage of them I disagree with or using any adjectives indicating how many. It was more than enough to railroad Terri's right to life, due process and equal justice under the law. Enough to shut the President and Congress up and dissuade them from doing anything that might be called an error on Terri's behalf.

I am glad to be in the company of Robert Bork, Roy Moore, Mark Levin, Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter and Judge Tom Parker, among many others, who think the judiciary has exceeded its Constitutional mandates. My three statements, which you quoted, remain as apparent statements of fact as to what is. They accurately reflect what has just happened, not my desires or fears. Things may change but it is not a leap of faith to say that change will be harder in the face of this precedent.
