airliners are not the only way for terrorists to commit their acts. McVeigh didn't need one. neither did the people who attacked the embassies.
call me conspiratorial. i don't see why the govt needs a lot personal information about us for "air safety." it seems to me that now they will have an easier way to eliminate anyone who makes them mad by shooting down their plane with a "missile defense" interceptor. they at least will keep even more tabs on people. if knowledge, or information, is power, then this starts to be quite a concentration of power. to what end?
do i have a right to freedom of movement? if i am not in prison/under arrest, yes. it doesn't have to be explicitly stated in the constitution or bill of right for me to have it. even if i am suspicious, what happened to innocent until proven guilty? do i have a right to speak up if i think the govt is being repressive? yes. i am not saying it is now, but this leads down that path.
i can get it right sooner or later. sorry mr moderator. anyway. when Mulder left, i didn't think that the show would be any good. but i think Dogget has really added something by putting a skeptic in the lead. i think Dana should have left too, even if she is the love of my life. maybe it is time the show was put to bed. as for favorites:
the one with the background of cancer/cigarette smoking man. i think a good part of the series ended with him.
"all souls" with the handicapped children that are apparently being taken by the devil, but it some weird priest, offering them salvation, cause the children are angels or something.
the one where Fox and Dana actually get jealous of each other when they are investigating some small town incident and Dana gets the hots for a local sherriff and Fox for some local girl.
the episode where Fox finds out about his sister.
and then there is one where Dana seems to be on the super-introspection path and the rest of the world just kind of stops for a while, but i don't remember the details.
the one where they help to produce an X-Files movie with Gary Shandling and Duchovny's real life wife. ( can't remember her name)

there could be other parties out there, but the news companies are now trying keep them out of one of the mainstays of the campaign, the debates.
