Don't Believe The Hype
Information Landmine will believe in real change when the interests of ordinary citizens are prioritized over the interests of Wall Street bankers and robber barons.
Information Landmine will believe in real change when the PATRIOT and PATRIOT II Acts are repealed and the US Constitution and Bill of Rights are completely restored.
Information Landmine will believe in real change when every US citizen can visit a doctor without worrying about how they'll pay for it or whether it will be covered by insurance.
Information Landmine will believe in real change when weapons made in - and provided by - the USA are no longer used by Israelis to kill Palestinian civilians.
Information Landmine will believe in real change when we see Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rove, Gonzales, et al. on trial in a court of law for war crimes and treason.
But not until then.

Ah c'mon dude! Just cos everything on some lefty liberal shopping list hasn't yet been ticked off doesn't mean that there hasn't been change, or that it isn't 'real'.

There's too few unambiguously good days in politics as it is. Enjoy the moment.
