Poll question: Would You Risk Your Life to Expose The BFEE?
If you had information that would be damaging... say you got copies of Cheney's energy commission meetings, or the missing 28 pages of the 9/11 report. Maybe some secret recordings popped into your mailbox...or even something that backs up a scandal that's already out there - like you knew who the Plame leaker was?

1. That is an easy question.
I risk my life for a hell of a lot less in 66/67/68

10. Thanks, Racenut!
I owe you and yours our infinite thanks!

Many better than me already have given their lives to end the BFEE and their wars of profit.

BTW: A kick in the pants to the BFEE!

11. Thanks for saying that, Racenut!
I was here, demonstrating on the streets, and I'm glad to "know" another one who was over there, because you were all in our thoughts, all the time.

I'm glad you got back, and I'm glad you're here!

2. I didn't vote in the poll
because I cannot imagine what anyone could "expose" that would actually have an impact. You know, capture the collective attention of Americans.

I don't think photos of George and Laura dining on fetuses in the company Hitlers' mummy would push Laci Peterson or Michael Jackson off the front page or the screen.

Look at what has already been exposed. There's a traitor in the white house. Precious few care. No one cares about the 9/11 revelations.

We have a long history of not caring. Just ask Daniel Elsworth or Karen Silkwood (oops! you can't ask Karen anything)

Ollie North and G. Gordon Liddy both have talk shows. What does that tell you?

Maybe I'm just feeling disgusted this morning.... But, I honestly don't think any "revelations" are going to bring down the BFEE - we're just going to have to whup their asses.

6. I agree that information wouldn't do it
The transcript of the Cheney energy meeting is probably full of legal-language. The 28 pages in the 9/11 report probably talks about foreign suspects. I don't think release of that type of information would change a lot of votes.

7. Haven't we already?
Who knows what those of us who have spoken out have exposed ourselves to? And while it's true, that the Bush clan is no longer threatened by individual charges as serious as treason, keep in mind that there are corners of the Empire that can function independently. The Dixie Chicks can tell you about death threats - so can I.

8. If there was..............
a singular bit of information that I was SURE would bring these lying, treacherous, spitefull, dangerous assholes down, I'd do it in a heartbeat. Even if it was my last heartbeat.

12. This is something I've thought about quite a bit.
Because I'm on disability, and expect all that to be gone fairly soon, I realize that I will be gone with it, also. I know that a lot of people will die quietly, and just be gone... However, I've thought and thought about it, and wish that there was a way I could "go out" in a way that would actually bring some attention to WHY.

If I could actually do something like this..... bring something out in the open that would make a difference, something that would reach people, it would not only make a lot more sense than just going quietly, but it would give some meaning to my life, and that would mean a lot to me.

So, if you have this info.....
