After living in this country for 62 years, attending its schools, one of its most prestigious universities and working with many of its leaders in industry and business, I can say with this current administration I am terrified, for the first time in my life, at the ineptitude, incompetence and cruelty of the present set of “leaders”, Bush, Cheney, Rove, Wolfy, Rummy and the rest. I feel this nation, rather this empire is dying before our very eyes, if ever there was an “american” dream of democracy, of concern for real people, no matter what their color, sexual preference, economic status etc. that dream is long dead. We are through, finished. It’s only a matter of time now. God Help us here in this country!!
There is such fundamental change needed that I fear it cannot be done without a revolution of some sort.
Thank you…..

George Martin-Mauser:
A recognition that “fundemental change” is needed, is a start. And you are far too young to quit before the start.
Perhaps just twenty years down the road a Preidential election will offer three, decidedly different, candidates rather than two who have been labeled as the same by the popular press.
Perhaps it is time to visualize yourselfs as the saviours of the world rather than the rulers.

It’s scray alright, but you know what’s scarier? He’ll ‘win’ again.
That thought keeps me awake at night.

The same God that has given the world King George III and King George the Bush has also given us the hope of a Barack Obama. Can the country survive as a democracy if it is tortured with 4-more years of Bush and 4-new Supreme Court justices he might be able to appoint? Is a dual citizenship with Canada sensible for those of us who believe it cannot?

Bush MUST be defeated at the polls!
The consequences are too terrible to contemplate.
Bush will use another four years to completely dismantle Democracy at home he he lies about creating “democrcy” abroad!
Clue: NOTHING Bush has ever said about anything has been true except his stupid joke: “...this would be a lot easier if this was a dictatorship…just as long as I’m the dictator”
A Bush win in November leaves freedom loving Americans no other choice but revolution!

Revolution is right, and don’t think for a second that I’m not scared. I’m frightened near out of my mind. I don’t want to orchestrate some kind of offensive on my own nation’s government, but if that is what it takes I’m ready to die. But on a slightly lighter note I’d like to ask:
Does anyone talk to another and find that all your disscussions about what is wrong with the nation and how we can fix it are absolutely identical, but then the other guy says “Well I sure hope Bush wins then..” What the hell? How did Environmentalism and bushism collide to form one? I’m confused… PLEASE HELP ME!!!
