When the Cheney Gang and the Bush Bunch are finally gone on January 20, 2009, we hope, the books will start coming out on how bad things have been for the last eight years–the worst president and vice president in the history of the United States. 

If I were going to write one of these books,  I’d make the title, "Absence of Agitation". 

What has been missing throughout the whole time has been people’s protests, mass demonstrations, public outcries, cries of enough is enough. 

As bad as things are today, the silence from people is overwhelming and deafening.
