Good sir,

Someone recently pointed out, in a web forum, the similarities between
Dubya and President Clark ... ugly/questionable transition to power,
ties to unknown power circles, etc.

Specifically, the parallel between the recently announced "Freedom
Corps" and Clark's Nightwatch was drawn.

Do you personally see any parallels between the EarthGov future you
crafted and the US Government we're seeing unfold right here?

There are a few troubling echoes here and there.  One can only hope that the
system of checks and balances continues to check and balance.

BTW, if you're looking for an interesting site that reposts some intriguing
articles on Bush (from legit papers, btw, like the New York Times, LA Times,
Chicago Tribune) which haven't been getting much play, check out:
