"I have to reread 1984... find the time." No real need. Other than character details, it appears as if the Bush administration has taken it as a policy manual.

A good idea, and I am thinking of that myself. At the same time and by the same token, we should also read "Animal Farm" again. Another fairly good account of what can happen when - this time - socialists come to power. Orwell was a good guy seeing it all from both sides IMO. He only had about 10 good years with the woman he worked so hard for and then eventually was left alone with a 2 years old adopted child after his wife died during an hysterectomy operation. Poor guy, lo siento. Taro
