the terror only works if you let it
these men in the white house can only get away with genocide because we let them. bush took such great political advantage from 9-11 because we let him. now he takes huge political and psychological advantage of an apparently impending repeat, bin laden attack. but only because we've let him.

the coup de tat only occured because we let that happen. bush's pals made out like bandits on holiday because we let them. voodoo only works if you let it, and terror alerts every half hour will do the same if allowed to.

a crucifix keeps vampires away, but only if you believe it. and any insane drunkard with serious cocaine brain damage can play president if you let him. an election can only be cancelled if we let it, and all the bushco maniacs can escape any criminal prosecution of we let them.

democracy only works if you let it, dictators will murder thousands and steal billions if you let them. americans can take back their nation if you let them, and the illusion that these men are our leaders and have our best interests at heart only persists if you let it.

1. I only disagree with this
"democracy only works if you let it"

Democracy only works if you work it.

Small discrepancy.

(I would rather respond to mo paul, philosopher king than mo paul, philsopher king. It feels much more comfortable!)

2. Thanks mopaul

The Media Lets Them

The American Media is now a third arm of the Government

They are Playing a huge part in Letting them.

There's a big chunk of Americans that have NO idea WTF is going on.

Then there's the Brown shirts & they can't get enough of it & their

glorious Busholini.

3. Dictatorship
When all three branches are in the hands of the re thugs what do you expect? Maybe there should be an amendment limiting how long Supreme Court judges can serve. If Bush wins or steals it again he'll put three judges on the court who will have a say for the next fifty years.
