Seriously, are we to believe that Americans will vote against their best interests tomorrow?
Edited on Tue Nov-07-06 12:56 AM by BeHereNow
Just thinking out loud here- in the case that the treasonous
scum that has stolen our republic has the nerve to steal yet another election.

Are we to actually believe that the majority of America, staggering to survive ($$$)
under the fascist regime, would actually vote for further destruction
of their children's future and their own futures?

If so, if indeed the vote turns out to be legitimate, as in
America favors the destruction of the Consititution
and their liberties, then so be it.

I now firmly believe that Americans FULLY deserve the
government and NON representation in the branches of government
meant to enforce the checks and balances that they have, and like the "good Germans,"
have allowed.

1. They did it before, didn't they? I know two people who voted for bush in 2004
when it was CLEARLY against their individual self-interests. Go figure.

2. No
>Are we to actually believe that the majority of America

No, you're not, but if you want to blame all Americans for Bush that's what you'll choose to believe.

The reality is we're as trapped now as any other nationality. Our democracy went down the tubes in the year 2000.

5. My point precisely-
Are we to believe that Americans are content
with the current state of affairs?
Absolutely not.
Question is, what will they do in the case of
yet another stolen election, which I happen to believe
is highly probable-
My prediction?
They will do nothing... and therefore my deduction that
the people will get the government they deserve.

8. You're not talking to the same people I am
I know of a group of 50 senior citizens, never active in politics, who are planning on going to Washington, DC to march if the election is stolen. Some of them need walkers.

The people I talk to are no longer angry -- they're enraged and more frightened of Bush than any old al Qaeda boogeyman.

I'm genuinely fearful of what will happen tomorrow if the election doesn't go the way of the people.

3. the package has been selling for decades...
land of the free (meanwhile, bombing countries for corporate interests in fashion of home invasions). If I wanted free, the US would Not be on my list.

richest bestest country in the the world (meanwhile on the scale Not for the citisens in health care, etc. but fucking awesome great for the 1%ers or so).

It's absolutely devastatingly sad to wake up to all the years of lies. All are party in this.

10. Is King Kong a monkey? Is James Brown funky?
1/2 would vote for the severing of their own personal genitals if Fox News said it was for god and country.
