It is very sad that this is happening here. I sincerely love this country, but as all countries now, we citizens suffer the selfishness of our presidents and leaders, we suffer from many other aspects too. I have written what i think of change, feel free to read it on my blog. It sums up what i have to say regarding real change. It aint easy, but worth a try! I don't speak in a political language, but i think what i worte may serves the purpose well in a different way, and i have a gut feeling it would work if a large percentage of people try it. I still have hope regardless of all the negative air around! and i will continue to have hope as long as i breathe (i just hope i breath long enough hehehe). I know there is good out there, we just need to stimulate its widespread amongst us, then we can be a real power as citizens...

SM,

I find it strange that non of your usual commentators linked to this topic or posted a comment. Isn't that the peaceful kind of protest that they should encourage?

This is not an attack for those who can't wait to pick a fight :) this is just an observation or may be a disapointment.

Mr. Ghostie might need to interview those lawyers.
