Hey! I remember 1969 - I was a mere ten year old but I read the paper every
day and not just the comics.

How to put this tactfully? It's because you were reading the papers and
not rolling them. Hint, hint, nudge, nudge, say no more, say no more.
That took me a minute. Never had any interest in that "culture".

I was in the Haight and people were trying to find a way to live that
made sense. Meanwhile, over in Berkeley, students were trying to work
inside the system. We both got creamed. Guys walking up and down the
sidewalks wearing the same suits, the same shoes, same sun glasses and,
with the same camera strapped around their necks. What we need now are
new Church and Rockefeller sub-committees that put a spotlight on the
abuses (CIA assassinations, collaboration with the Mafia, discrediting
by illegal means political and civil rights leaders, ad nauseam) and
shoved the monster back into the bottle. You don't really have to
remember 1969 because "it's baaack".

Honestly - I have begun to think that dirty politics started a long time ago
- like the beginning. Just remember that Lincoln suspended the writ of
habeas corpus....
