Another definitive post.
1- A small group of neo-nazis (i.e. PNAC, GOP's right-wing) has taken complete indirect control of the most powerful nation on this planet. The master plan is to systematically destabilize the rest of the planet and to increase control, in all available dimensions, on the people of this country.

2- This has been accomplished through text-book political maneuvers, extreme-right-type activism, heavy financial investment, consistent and organized pressure on the media and intense lobbying over more than 8 years.

3- This has been facilitated by the Democratic Party's instances' complete lack of historical perspective, their self-confidence and their genuine, somewhat sleepy, respect for democratic institutions.

4- The grip of this faction now amounts to a stranglehold on this country's democracy. There is strictly nothing left that cannot be spinned, or re-framed, in a way or in another, and there is virtually no limit to what the power can now dare. In fact, the only problem this current administration has is to chose which part of their agenda to push first. L'"embarras du choix".

5- The very only possible way out of this choke is an immediate, all-out, no hold bar attack on the recent election and on the 2000 election as well. Even if results do not change, at least the people's attention will have been brought to this central issue. Some politicians might lose their political career in this process. It would be to their honor.

6- If this does not happen, and fast, it is checkmate. You and I lose the game with the white and an idiot playing the black. People will die in the areas scheduled for programmed destabilization. Or here, in so many ways, to pay for the deficit.

2. Absolute truth
This is it. If we don't fix this now it is checkmate. I fear it may be too late.

3. Well said. Short and to the Point.
n/t

google Ronnie Dugger. He wrote an essay published in the link I used at www.commondreams.org in late June or mid-July. We all should have paid attention then. Our loss, their gain.

5. Too bad more of us did not pay attention to the message. If they can do
it in so many other nations around the world, why are we not making it happen here? Oh yeah, how about the ______ 's this weekend?
