Check this post: Frank Rich in Sunday's NY Times: The War Is Over |

Some of you may miss this, already well posted on General Discussion. You should not miss this one; you need to see this post, and the article, on www.nytimes.com. This war is indeed over, and I am old enough to know why. Please find this prior post. If you do not, you will miss a great deal, and you will hear a lot about it this week, as Rove unleashes his talking points to Limbaugh, Hannity, O'Reilly, et. al. But, he loses. You can feel it. I felt it in 1968.

Why do you think they are preparing the way to have US troops empowered to take over in times of national emergency?

7. Their support is gone. |
|
They can do what they want. No matter what Rove's orcs (O'Reilly, Limbaugh, et al) say, they have lost the American people. That doesn't mean the rest will be easy. It does mean they have to get us out. No later than March 2006 is my guess.

8. Who loses? Rove or Rich? I'm confused |
|
And I think something definitely has shifted in this country. McCamy, how are the armed forces going to be able to violate Posse Comitatus and impose this neo-feudalist Bush martial law? I think a lot of Constitution-loving Republicans are beginning to see the PNAC Bushists as despotic, undemocratic rulers. You really think these people are going to be able to pull it off, and turn the once-prosperous USA into postwar Albania? I don't.

12. Posse Comitatus? Think mercenary army. |
|
Just as they hired mercenaries and third world abusers to do the dirty work.
If you look closely at the war on drugs, you will see the war on US citizens is already raging here, and privatization is the name of the game.

9. BWAHAHAHA -- Your'e gonna LOVE this |

In an emblematic gesture akin to waving a white flag, Robert Novak walked off a CNN set and possibly out of a job rather than answer questions about his role in smearing the man who helped expose the administration's prewar inflation of Saddam W.M.D.'s. (On this sinking ship, it's hard to know which rat to root for.)

11. We All Felt it In 1968. |
|
Then they killed RFK and stuck us with Nixon and 6 more long years of futile warfare.
I have learned never to trust such feelings.
