When will the madness of king George end? And how?
If we believe that he will stumble and fall before the end of his second term, what is likely to bring him down?

His role in the events of 9/11?
The no-WMD debacle?
The stolen election?
The crashing of the economy?
World War 3?

People need to be told what a mess they are living in, what their leaders have been up to, that they soon will be living in a true fascist state. Maybe then they will be ready to oust the mad idiot boy from his usurped throne.
The only problem you might well argue is that in order to oust him one needs the support of the MSM and their acknowledgment that something is wrong.
Now we can just admit that the media has been useless in its biased coverage of any * related events in the last 4 years.
Is it likely to change? Well I personally do not think so.
Will the internet community come to the rescue? Not yet way too many people get their news somewhere else or do not have access. Universal access is still at least 5 years away.
So what can we do? I believe that it is up to the people who have access to the MSM to do what is right.
And the only people who have unlimited access are celebrities, now some of them are not politically bright but they always support causes which they believe are fair, like their support of AIDS research for example.
Would it be possible to get these people to support the saving of DEMOCRACY, let them wear badges that look like a little piece of paper with a hole in it to symbolize ballots or little coffins for the dead of Iraq.
I don't know about the details but one thing is sure, some big names took part in various GOTV initiatives, is it wrong to assume that they would feel disgust if they were presented with the facts concerning disenfranchisement,intimidation and manipulation of results.
Imagine if every celebrity that you see on TV is talking about how bad * is or how they have doubts about the election results, or reminding people about the number of dead in Iraq, well that kind of thing.
One only needs to look at the artists performing for *'s inauguration to realize that performers don't really like the man.
Is this idea too far fetched? It would be nice to get some feedback.

a neverending repeating nightmare.

Maybe Bush IS the Antichrist?

At least we have the Apocalypse to look forward to...

What a relief!

4. Yep it comes around every four years.
The Apocalypse would at least put us out of our misery.
