When it comes to the current administration I find myself becoming comfortably numb. Whether it is the price of energy, Wolfowitz becoming the President of the World Bank, or the rising deficit I find that nothing seems to surprise or even anger me anymore. Even though my opinions of the policies of this administration have not changed at all I still fear that I am becoming a glassy-eyed accepter of things that reason and logic are powerless to change. Now I am beginning to understand how Winston Smith could raise his arms in frustration and complete resignation while crying out, “I love Big Brother”. Sometimes it seems to futile to rage against the dying light.
