(Is it really 2007? Or is this happening in 2005?...also, TopOff4 sounds a lot like Coup d'Etat IV; i.e., election 2000, 9/11, election 2004)

*QUOTES*

Political tags—such as royalist, communist, democrat, populist, fascist, liberal, conservative, and so forth—are never basic criteria. The human race divides politically into those who want people to be controlled and those who have no such desire.

- Robert A Heinlein


The urge to save humanity is almost always a false front for the urge to rule.
- H.L. Mencken
