Wake Up Call: America is Falling to a Revolutionary Power

"I want to be invisible. I do guerrilla warfare. I paint my face and travel at night. You don't know it's over until you're in a body bag. You don't know until election night." --Ralph Reed

The impassioned squabbles raging back and forth at DailyKos at the moment revolve around the degree to which the evident (although by no means foregone) capitulation of the Democratic party to the nomination of Samuel Alito to the Supreme Court represents a betrayal of its supporters, and if so, what an appropriate response to such a betrayal should be. While these are interesting and necessary debates, what I see missing from the discussion is any mention of the fact that the Democratic party continues to negotiate and work in good faith with a Republican party that clearly represents a revolutionary movement out to smash the Constitution of the United States. This cannot continue and is rapidly approaching the point of absurdity.

This disconnect is maddening, and is I believe what is leading so many here to threaten to leave the party in frustration. Many feel the rule of law is quite clearly collapsing in this country, and realize the vacuum such a collapse would create will be eagerly filled by the most brutal and totalitarian elements of the Republican right.

We need to come together and forge a consensus that America is facing a national emergency. It is long past time the Democrats in Washington awoke to this reality, accepted it as the new "facts on the ground", and started acting in all haste to confront and resoundingly defeat a revolutionary power that threatens us all.

1. Kick & Nominated - Wake up call!

"While many at DailyKos and elsewhere these days are frantically sounding shrill klaxons that America is in mortal jeopardy, Democrats in Washington sanguinely go about business as usual. They apparently "find it nearly impossible" to acknowledge what the country is now facing: a revolutionary power that means to smash "the existing framework" (the rule of law based upon our Constitution and Bill of Rights) and replace it with something else entirely (a paranoid, messianic Christo-fascist oligarchy)."

3. As soon negotiate with Nazis as deal with these GOPukes

Our democratic "leadership" has revealed itself as inept, effete and, essentially, pointless.

They just don't "get it". Perhaps because they have spent so much time (too much, some say) in the Beltway and have lost any real contact with the "real world."

This is why so many of us turn to "outsiders" like Clark, etc., for leadership.

"Outsider", of course, is a phony label since many of these people are well plugged into the arteries of power (governors, generals, etc.). They are just not so blinded by the forest that they can't see the logging company chopping down the trees of our freedom.
