right now, if you scroll down through the breaking news page
everything is about misery wrought by this administration.

or are we just sitting there, numbed out by the daily barrage of television.and.life.and.work.and.commute.and.bills.and.kids.and.kidsbills.etc.

1. It's right where it should start...CALIFORNIA!!!
I agree, there should be people in the streed. That's what Senator Hollings, D, SC said before Iraq...and he meant it.

Well, * is at 34% approval in California and there is a huge organizaed resistance to Arnie's special election. Tens of thousands demonstrate, block his entry to events, challenge petition gatherers on a moment's notice.

They're doing it and we'll catch on soon.

3. I think you're right
The midwest is always a little slow to catch on to things, this uprising will spread like a wildfire, but it needs to start on the east and west coast.

9. Notice all the "Bear Flag Republic" avatars showing up...
That's the flag CA had for its 72 hours as an independent nation way back in the day. Well, I'll predict we see a lot of those. When NE and VA climb on board, we've won (haha).

2. it will not be televised...
didn't you get the memo?

If they couldn't or wouldnt show the protests outside of the Republican National convention before the election, do you really think they would show a revolt?

I must have that memo here somewhere... hahaha!

4. Oh but they made sure they got the tank on TV.... What we need is a
Paul Revere on a modern day jack-ass to ride the streets to prompt the call to liberty!
