Re:Sweeps
The part of all of this that is truly insulting is the insult to our intelligence! Obviously Mr. Bush thinks that we were left farther behind than he was. It would be funny if didn’t feel that he is trying to destroy America as we know it. Oh well, I am nearly 66 years old so I will miss the most of the really terrible things. I worry about my family that will be left behind though. I have sent e-mails and etc. to all of my family and friends. They ,for the most part, seem deaf, dumb and blind. They are nearly all mad or frustrated with me and what they call my obsesssion. HAH

This situation grows more and more worrying by the day and the only solution I can see is to keepas many people as informed as possible about the true events. Too much information is not making it through the filters of the media (Murdoch, you are stifling the most important information available). Therefore, I too have engaged in email campaigns,.spreading those news stories that don’t wuite make the 6 0’clock. I’ve also constructed a website based around the ‘untold’ information.

So very true. So many people tend to be focusing on the war as a major problem—which I am not discrediting, but there are other things that are being completely ignored. How will Bush manage to provide childcare, health care, AIDS research, Hydrogen Car research, etc. and not hurt the economy more. I am only 23 years old and already I fill that the US is digging themselves so far into debt that the US will not be a prosperous place for me to live when I’m 50 or for my grandchildren to live. It is a sad, sad state.

Even more disgusting than this “President’s” fiscal irresponsibility and rush to war, is the fact that it’s all being orchestrated by an administration with no legitimate claim to the White House in the first place. Here’s a man who lost not only the popular vote by half a million, but also (as has been well documented and widely reported outside of the U.S.) lost the Florida electoral vote by more than fifty thousand. If America were truly a nation of laws (which it clearly isn’t); if we were a genuine democracy (which, sadly, we never have been), George and his assorted cohorts would be in the west wing of Levenworth, instead of the White House; and the five Supreme Court “Justices” who aided him in his coup would, at the very least, be out of work and disbarred. We owe it to future generations to never forget what Bush and his party pulled off. And we must, no matter how futile the situation may seem, always come out in mass to defeat the Republican party in future elections. There are far more registered Democrats and Independents than Republicans. It comes down to a simple matter of numbers. If we all (or at least, most of us) actually went to the polls at every opportunity, the Republican party wouldn’t stand a chance. It’s not the strength of their supporters that keeps them in power. It’s the apathy of ours. Of course it’s disheartening to vote for a Democratic candidate who is often almost as conservative, and absolutely as corrupt, as his opponent. But we must first bite the bullet and unseat the Republican power structure. Then we will be in a viable position to either change the Democratic party, or build the popular support that’s necessary to replace it with a new alternative. But we must first resolve to unseat this party, who has shown through its actions in the last presidential election, that when the outcome isn’t to their liking, they have an inalienable right to simply seize power through fraud and voter intimidation. We can’t let this stand. We can’t ever just sit by complacently, and let it happen again.

Gog—-Were are the people when men like this get elected. This president has made such a mess of just about everything. One can only hope that we vote him out in the next election and pray he has not destroyed us all in the mean time!!!!!!!!!
