Yesterday's question o' the day was "Since Shrub's policies have been so detrimental to the US war on terror, would Al Qaeda schedule an attack sometime next year to boost public opinion for the Bush regime if he/it were behind in the polls?" A couple people responded that they weren't sure an attack would help Bush this time around. Been pondering that and I'm not sure either way. It may be that like most things these days, reaction would more or less split down party lines--a sad commentary on the state of the nation, imo.
Ok, new questions of the day, including weekend bonus!
- If a lawsuit were initiated against Fox News claiming that it is not indeed a news organization, but instead a PR firm, would that suit have any traction? The anti-pr from that would be interesting. Wonder how competing news orgs would cover it, if at all?
- If a lawsuit were filed against the Federal Govt. claiming that certain people should not pay Social Security tax today because anyone of a certain generation (say 40 or under) will never see a cent of what they pay (given the fiscal policies of past, but especially the current admin.), would that suit go anywhere? (BTW, I wouldn't want people to stop paying into the system, but it would be an interesting way to perhaps attract people's attention to the fact that the SS trust fund is constantly raided, ahem, borrowed against, and that cumulative federal borrowing will someday soon make the sytem insolvent--to the Con's delight.)
Hope someone reads this cuz I'd like to get a reaction on it from some of you smarties...
