The primary person keeping the fear alive . . . is the administration.
Who has now wrapped themselves in every cliche and saying of the previous administration in order to "explain" their perpetual war, and outright assault on civil liberties and privacy.
As I always say, it makes me LOL thinking about all the wailing and screaming that the Libratards and Obamabots did about the previous administration, only to see them now in frothing defense of policies that in some cases makes the previous administration look like a bunch of flower children.
