What if the WTO Seattle protesters were right and it was an international banking strategy that actually set up the U.S. mortgage mess, creating a global economic crisis?
What if Barack Obama was a Republican? How would we be treating him differently on this website?
What if Bill Krostol believed that he is a born-again Neocon?

What if the Democratic Party has deviated so far from its platform that it decided to push a health care reform plan that was written by the insurance industry, supported by the Heritage Foundation and backed by Newt Gingrich.

What if our trusted democratic president, a revered constitutional scholar and former president of the Harvard Law Review, decided to argue that predator drone bombing activity in lybia is not an act of war since there are no U.S. citizens locally present in the planes as they drop bombs?
What if this line of reasoning supersedes the explicit intent of Posse Comitatus and allows federally owned and operated drone activity within the boarders of the U.S.
The drones belong to U.S. Customs and Border Protection, which operates eight Predators on the country's northern and southwestern borders to search for illegal immigrants and smugglers. The previously unreported use of its drones to assist local, state and federal law enforcement has occurred without any public acknowledgment or debate.
The Posse Comitatus Act, 18 U.S.C. § 1385 (2001), prohibits individuals from using “any part of the Army or the Air Force as a posse comitatus or otherwise to execute the laws"
What if there is no one left to effectively advocate for liberal policies in America as the Democratic Party leadership has completely sold out?
