What people are saying about Lance Brown for President:

   "I've been reading some of the political content at freedom2008.com, and find it damn interesting.
   "I am nominally a Democrat, but have never been seriously politically active, mainly because I'm fed up with a lot of what the major parties say and do. ...you could say I'm looking for an intelligent alternative.
   "I'm not ready to declare myself a Libertarian, but your site piques me and makes me think. And that's (at least) half the battle.
   "Very interesting."
-- Kurt B.,
Allentown, Pa.

   "Wow I am amazed and joyous! Your views are just what this country needs! I am going to spread the word about your campaign."
-- Elizabeth Ward

   "I read every article posted on your site and was amazed to find myself repeatedly saying 'Wow, I agree with that.'"

   "I'm pro-Lance as long as I'm not also running for prez" - 
-- Mojo Nixon, entertainer and revolutionary

   "You are probably this country's last chance at freedom in this lifetime."
-- ¡Obay!

   "I stumbled upon your website and it is WONDERFUL. You can count on MY VOTE and MY SUPPORT in 2008!!!"
-- Alan Handleman,
Grayson, KY

   "This is the blog belonging to my former boss and aspiring President of the United States. I remain pledged to moving to Ireland if he actually wins but still it's an interesting site."
-- Adam Graham,
Boise, Idaho

   "I just want to take a minute to tell you that we really do appreciate your writing over here. I find the state of this country so outrageous that I mostly sit around pulling my hair out and fantasizing about Canada. But, incredibly, you don't stew! It's like you're on a whole other plane.
   "It's so easy to lose sight of reality with all that glare from the fancy magic show illusions of our 'two' party system. Seriously. Your message is hopeful and real."
-- Kristen Werner,
Rollinsford, N.H.

Dan Shafer spreads the word; Rumsfeld micromanages the war

Dan Shafer works with me at PeoplesForum.com -- he's the CEO. My boss, when you get right down to it, but it's not so much like that. I've got my thing to do (running the community), and he's got his thing (running the company), and he mostly leaves me to my own devices, as I do him. Don't get me wrong, we get along great, and talk regularly, it's just not a command-and-control thing.

(What it really is is that I was CEO for a long time before we brought Dan on board, and my brain still rejects the idea that I have a "boss". ;-))

Dan's got a blog, as a long-time web guru would be expected to have, and he made mention of HowToStopTheWar.org. His blog's called Eclecticity, which is a cool name. He links a ways down to this piece in the New Yorker, which I ran into in my search for PNAC-related links too. It's about how Donald Rumsfeld took control (and some say, messed up) the military planning for going into Iraq. The PNAC connection, if there is one (and I think there is), is here in this sentence:

Several senior war planners complained to me in interviews that Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld and his inner circle of civilian advisers, who had been chiefly responsible for persuading President Bush to lead the country into war, had insisted on micromanaging the war’s operational details.
