The nightmare of a Bush re-election .How long before disaster?
Should Americans' buy into BUsh's BS and the fool gets re-elected. How many weeks before American's turn on this fool. Iraq is a mess now..Al Queda recruitment is upon all over the Muslim world..
The federal budget dilema/trade imbalance..How long will it take before Americans are filled with regret and rage. (Note US Military mutiny ocurred in Iraq overnight.) Once re-elected, this Bush will never care if we ever come out of a recession.
The military mutinies, how about the rest of us? What do you expect..We can't impeach the guy , maybe take him to International Court of Justice; as Kofi Annan would probably agree to..

I think we got what we deserve.

7. Bush and Cheney believe in the ethics of the "open range"
I think they would appreciate that the opposition's response could be less "metro" and more "rebellious" than liberals typically tend to be.

Everyone who has not should read _Les Miserables_.

Bush is creating an entirely new class of poor...people educated, trained, and past their primes, but who have lost their jobs, sometimes homes and often savings because the masters of corporations are greedy. These are "Les Nouveau Miserables" they are very unhappy, they have lost much, and understand the value of sacrifice in a nobel cause.

As we should have learned from many locations around the world...People who have nothing left to lose can be very difficult.

3. With all the crap I'm hearing about vote tampering
I am beginning to think they will make sure they win no matter what. What happens then, I'm afraid to think about.

5. We already have a disaster. Can he do much more harm?
Can anyone tell me how about 10 men can tear this country apart? We must really always sit on the edge of a cliff if these neo-cons and Bush can make such a mess in this short of time. Well we are really an old demo racy now in terms of this world so may be we could not keep it.

6. Here's how I see it going down:
The rest of the world will do what apparently the American people are either unwilling or unable to do. Unfortunately, we will all suffer tremendous economic hardship.

Slowly, and methodically, the rest of the world will bleed us dry. It won't take military might to tame the American monster, just good old- fashioned economic solidarity.

8. World turns to Eurocentric economic model
. I feel part of the reason for the repug war is sevearal countries- like Indonesia, Malyasia, Saudi Arabia, and IRAQ were taking their securites out of dollars and putting them into euros.
With Bush returned this will accelerate. The rest of the world hates Bush too much..The world will not reply to US military domination with a war machine but economic reprasials. We will pay and US economic domination of the world will end due to our bankruptacy.
