Two related conspiratorial thoughts to start off your Monday:
1. Does anyone know what happened to the expression "sleeper cell"? Remember that we were told that the sleepers would wake up all across America pretty soon and then cause havoc far and wide? Are they just really really sleepy? They're not answering their telephones, according to what the NSA has gleaned from wiretaps thus far.
2. Isn't a synonym for "War on Terror" a "war on fear"? And if the US is waging a war on fear, why does it keep causing so much of it? Is this "fear" as in the fear a puppy shows when it looks at itself in the mirror (or better yet, with a mirror on the other side of the hall as well [or better yet])? Is Bush the Chief Barker [extremely clever double entendre intended]?

I thought "War on Terror" was about being mad at France, whose government descends from Robspierre.
The answer to your first question is easy: href="http://www.sho.com/site/sleepercell/home.do">"Sleeper Cell" is now a television program on Showtime.
I don't pay for that channel, however, so I cannot provide much more info.
Try that again (feel free to delete that last one)

Another expression that seems to have disappeared is "original intent." As far as I'm aware, it didn't show its head once in the recent hearings for Supreme Court nominees.
I suspect that its erstwhile promoters realized that it invokes the Constitution, and if we look too closely at that document, we just might find how badly it's being trashed.

Rodger - I thought I could keep up with the GWOT with regular cable and "24." Now you've got me thinking that I don't undertsnad a thing ab out GWOT without premium cable.
Cheryl - maybe they figured out that's it's exceptionally difficult to determine "original intent" sans pantaloons. And that would be gay.
