I'd argue a little bit over your phrase "have gone over..." it's pretty obvious to most of us that they were already THERE.

I've always been confused about this notion that Replugs are somehow "tougher on crime." they like to talk a good show, but when have they ever been able to claim real "results?" there have been reductions at various points, but they tend to be gradual and to exist as part of national or international trends. yeah, you can initiate vile policies like "stop and frisk" and do the kinds of horrible things these "elite units" seem to love (which we know lead to what are, effectively, lynchings). but I'm very suspicious...where did that famous "crime bill" get us? as usual, I welcome being corrected.
it's always on some level going to be the House That Hoover Built. the man who considered MLK to be "the most dangerous man in America."
I'm not sure I believe that he was ever REALLY a drag queen, but this image I just created of him doing a drag reading session might just keep me chortling through the weekend...
don't get me wrong...I assume the relationship wityh Tolson was exactly what people say it was, and he was DEFINITELY gay. but there were also stories about him liking to dress up in women's clothing. it's that LAST thing I was taking some exception to.
I mean Jesus...even Clint Eastwood's movie was endorsing that the guy was gay.
interestingly, David Halberstam always doubted that Hoover was gay, but guys of that generation tended to deny that public figures were gay. I know for a fact that my father had two or three close associates at work who were gay, but he ALWAYS denied it because in THAT ("greatest") generation, it just wasn't discussed.

There were all kinds of stories about him and Clyde Tolson.
