Greetings.
Imagine if someone surfaced whose home had been systematically burglarized since well before 9-11, and who fit the description of a political activist. Imagine then if that person was writing a story on the freemasons and skull and bones, and that story had been removed from his possession during a Patriot Act Secret Search. Imagine as well that this person had sent a missive to the National Press Club ON THE DAY OF THE PATRIOT ACT reauthorization debate describing these secret searches, and the misconduct of Special Agents in damaging his personal property. Imagine as well that the story was titled "Dissemble", and that George Bush then misspoke using "Disassemble", and that law enforcement then quadrupled the searches, vandalism in his home, and criminal character assasinations at the businesses he frequents.
Imagine than, the premature end of the Bush and Cheney era, well before the next presidential election.
Imagine, Brothers, imagine.
We can dream, cant we?
