Since we keep taking it in the ass with this "political game", isn't it time for us to start brainstorming about hard core alternatives?



*****************************************************************

Such as what?



Well . . .



How about nation wide boycotts of selected fascist corporations? It's obvious now the Bush/Republicans represent only a small minority of American citizens, so let's focus on how we can start systematically destroying selected corporations financially. Beginning with Exxon would be nice. Just stop buying their products. Ironically, the market place is the soft underbelly of pig rich, so let's hit them where it hurts! Boycotts are no joke! THEY WORK if enough people link arms and start trashing their bottom lines.



Demonstrations on a massive, country wide scale also work. There's strength in numbers. So long as we DON'T demonstrate massively and repeatedly, they can pretend we're not out here. A million + demonstrators in Washington IS TAKEN SERIOUSLY. Let's make these pimples wet their pants with our sheer numbers.



This is groping, but we need to make more dynamic contact with other countries. We need more "backup" and validation. Most of the planet hates these neo Nazis as much as we do and would be only too willing to help us in any way they can to rid the planet of this Bush/Republican cancer. Let's face it, the Bush/Republicans/Evangelicals are lose/lose for EVERYONE, so perhaps we can "internationalize" our good fight to save America.



The ballot box, of course, 100%! But, we know the fix in already in, so it's going to take a monumental turnout to compensate for the tsunami of Bush/Republican voter fraud. If there was ever a time to stand up and be counted (literally), it's now.



The two main points here are:



(1.) Our political system is broken. The vision of our forefathers has been destroyed by the mega rich and religious fanatics and we are basically in free fall.



(2.) This free fall will end in the utter destruction of liberals and progressives and the middle and lower classes, unless we find ways to fight back "non politically". By now it’s obvious the DNC = the RNC (e.g., Hillary Clinton & Joe Liebermann), so it’s 100% up to us. It's our choice and we have very little time left in which to do it, so let's stop bending over and brainstorm our country back.
