    Eisenhower warned us about this thing we are
    in now.Was his warning a suggestion to those
    that would do what he saw in miniscule(thank Roosevelt/Truman for nipping that in the bud) then, as a possibility for such as the Halibur-
    ton ilk to reap profits to the absurb, no
    regard, no tears to the cannon fodder as they count their gold. Somebody needs to be impeac-
    hed for war crimes!

    Democracy When? If one single vote is not counted, the election is not over. In Florida in 2000, not just one, but, hundreds of thousands of votes were not counted. The same thing (THEFT) in 2004 occcured in Ohio. Until millions of people in the United States wake up and get their heads out of their asses and stop sheepishly paying the war tax (Federal Income Tax), 80% of which goes to the GOD DAMN CIA, U.S. MIlitary and arms industry; until we have a real "Democratic" system which allows every single legal voter to vote for where he or she wants their hard-earned tax monies to go, e.g.: free Health Care, free medicine, free education, agriculture, food housing, to vote for things that help people and not kill people, we will never have a so-called "Democracy".

    I will not completely believe or trust the so-called "Democrats", who the American people voted into office, until they file legal charges against George Putsch, Ronald Dumbsfeld, Scum-Bum Sheister Cheney, Aunt Tom Condum not-so-nice Rice, Colon Piles, Carl Rove, and all the other cronies in the White House (Read: OUTHOUSE), drag them all out of their offices and into court, prosecute them all for their crimes (Too long of a list to list here), try them, convict them, and throw them all into prison. Even then, they would be getting off too easy! If this was the 18th century, millions of Americans would march on Washington, in tri-corn hats, drag Bush and his cronies (all of the above listed) out of their offices, tar and feather them, and most likely hang them all! In this age, a more compassionate sentence would be a public spanking (with pants down) on public television and then they would be forced to hitch-hike across the United States. An even more compassionate friend suggested that Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and all of their cronies be forced to work in the VA hospitals in the U.S. and the hospital (s) in Germany and elsewhere where the grossly difigured Iraqi veterans are being taken care of, that they (Bush & cronies) be forced to change the wounded soldiers bandages and bed pans until the end of their days. NOW THAT IS REAL "JUSTICE"! THANK YOU. Sincerely,
    Patriot,Allan Hart

    Dear Fellow Citizens: On the morning after the 2000 Elections, I was at Government Center in Boston, at 6;00 AM with a sign:"The Fix Is In". Where were y'all? The first words out of my mouth on Sept. 11, 2001, when I heard about the so-called, "9/11 attacks", the first words out of my mouth was a quote of Malcolm X's ( when he heard about the killing of JFK on Nov. 22, 1963): "The chickens have come home to roost"(referring to the CIA doing their dirty work here. The American People barely raised an eyebrow after the second stolen election in 2004. Both Congress and the House, and the Injustice Depart5ment all sallied-up to the mic with their crocodile tears on 9/11 and all rolled-over with a flag up their asses after the two stolen elections(not the first ones, by the weay). The problem is, that very few Americasnc (maybe, .00015% ?) really give a shit that the same people who killed JFK are still reaping the benefits from 9/11 and the IRAQ War. Americans , on the whole, are basically, politically illiterate. They read no critical literature and only know the News and mass media mis and didinformation and lies. They have no critical reference. As Dr. E. Martin Schotz said, the American people "believe" this and "think" that and don't really know anything because they are afraid to look at the horrific truth because then, they'd have to do something about it. Gore Vidal was right when he said that, "the American People don't know anything, and it is the job of the mainstream media to keep it that way" ( I've said that for decades). So, the problem is that the American people are willfully ignorant, grossly mis and disinformed, complacent, apathetic and cynical, deluded, in denial, and lying to themselves. What else is new? Why is the Presidential Election in November, and the Ignaugeration in January? Because the American People get goo=goo=gagga over Thanksgiving and Christmas and immediately forget about the Elections that were stolen from them, and January is the coldest month of the year and who wants to go out in the freezing cold to protest?. Another problem is that this country is too big for everyone to go to Washington to protest. So, I propose that when it gets warm in Spring, or, better yet, just before the next Presidential Election, every dissenting Citizen and true patriotic American(announced in advance, of course), leave their workplace, their home, and stop the automobile that they are driving and get out of it, and everyone do what the Citizens in Chile did to protest Pinochet's fascist regime, and bang on the pot or pan they brought to work, or out of the house or car with them. An hour of loud noise all over the country for one full hour on a Monday at 1:00Pm. just might send a message to everyone, who's in charge.

    Americans have a unique opportunity to reshape their future and define the new millennium in a truly memorable way.

    To best determine the sentiment for the federal branches of government, three simple and basic questions should be presented to voters. These questions should be presented to all voters, not just small polls that rarely reflect more than a few thousand responses.

    Question 1.

    Given the choice, do you want to remake and reinvent the executive branch of the federal government, which is the office of President of the United States?

    Question 2.

    Given the choice, do you want to remake and reinvent the legislative branch of the federal government, which is the Congress: both the House of Representatives and the Senate of the United States?

    Question 3.

    Given the choice, do you want to remake and reinvent the judicial branch of the federal government, which is the Supreme Court of the United
    States?

    I just finished reading all the blogs on this site, which I happened to stumble onto by the way, and I must say there are some passionate people out there in America. But is this truly a majority of how the people on the whole in America feel. Or is this just another site that spills out angry rhetoric to vent their frustrations about what they feel is injustice in the world.

    If it is the former, let me say I have not heard this outcry from the masses. Is this because there is a silent majority out there and this is the place that truly knows what's going on and the truly informed are speaking out here. I am what I consider a passionate person about this country, however I don't feel informed enough to truly give my opinion at this time. However, I do hope that if all of you feel so deceived by this "non - democratic" government, I hope you will do what you say you will do and get out there and get involved.

    If anyone wishes to give me some facts about what I have read here today, feel free to email me at cutehoods@yahoo.com (don't let the name fool you). I hope to learn all I can so I can make informed decisions about the political climate in the future. Thank you very much.

    If there were not profits in war, it is very unlikely that we would have any. The only reason people speak to each other is to size them up for stealthy stealing. They circle the profiteer wagons, and send in the conscripts to steal for them. Nothing new in this conflict.

    I can speak my mind, so why would I need clothing to do that for me? Funny how Americans are afraid to communicate in public because the press told them to be afraid of each other. Then the same people claim we live in a democracy.

    Get out in the public and speak with your shirt off,Juan, if you are so afraid that you cannot think for yourself. The withdrawal symptoms from needing the TV to tell you about the world will go away quicker if you turn off the TV.
