I went back to a previous post from January 28, 2005 and I had to laugh. The following is a quote I posted from a fellow blogger (who happens to be from the other side of the political spectrum) who chose hyperbole over reason:
I believe history will record January 6, 2005, as the day on which the United States of America completed a 4-year descent from democracy into dictatorship, by abandoning the rule of law in its electoral process, thus ensuring that the party in control cannot be removed.
I believe that when the history of these times is ultimately told, it will adjudge the above mentioned Senator and Representatives*, who stood up to this coup d'etat, as patriots and heroes, and to those who did not, as cowards and traitors.
-R.B.
The funny thing is I had to go back through the newspaper archives to figure out what he was talking about. Maybe future history (I know the term "future history" is just gibberish, but so was this posting) will remember Mr. Beckerman's patriots and heroes.
