Overheard on Stellar Parthenon

I should note that the private BBS, Stellarparthenon.org, frequently supplies me with ideas, or at least a direction in the generally civil and well informed discussions there.^*

It turns out that even the musings on conspiracy theories tend to be pretty literate and well reasoned.

Case in point, SP member "Pickapeppa" made the following observation:

So just for the sake of discussion, let's say Bush does intend to declare martial law and become it's first dictator.

What do you think would be the first thing he'd want control over besides the military (which he already has).

Perhaps the banks?

Well, I'm sleeping like a baby tonight.

^*The "closed" bit is why there are, "generally civil and well informed discussions" there.
