CHENEY Testing We The People-What Are WE Going To Do About It?

[kpete]

If the Congress does not respond to Cheney vigorously, and I mean with explicit and credible movements toward impeachment, rather than Rahm Emanuel's cutesy little side step about cutting Cheney's executive-branch funding, we will know Congress is complicit, even if subconsciously, in the coming autocracy. And Cheney and the plutocrats will know as well.

But Cheney may also be testing we the people. Are we, as I contend Cheney and his ilk believe, too soft, comfortable, domesticated and fearful to object with anything like sufficient will, strength and unity to stop their coup d'etat? Cheney will know soon enough. Will we stand against guns, tanks, tear gas, deprivation of food and utilities?

As scary as what I am about to say really is, I do not think Cheney and the small cadre of super rich, would-be plutocrats who want to run this country as their own actually believe the people will rise up if they declare, or actually run, an authoritarian government. As the Revered One, Molly Ivins, said, a bully only asks one question: will you kick his ass; not can you or should you, but will you? Cheney and gang do not think we will and that's all they need to know. So they just might be making their big move, and Cheney may be announcing it openly.

Well, I strayed a little far from the Marx was right theme, but the bottom line is that Cheney and Bush are seeking autocratic rule not because they are power hungry megalomaniacs, but because that is what their bourgeois benefactors want because that is what they believe will make then richer and that is all they care about. Will we stop them or not?

1. Let me straighten my ....

:tinfoilhat:.....and call me crazy but, I look for those 2 cretins to find an exuse
to declare Martial Law and postpone the election. I think at this point, if the
people do not stand up, we will be under dictatorial rule in a police state nation in
a short period of time.

3. They can't, according to a lawyer friend

I had a Constitutional lawyer explained to me why this is, so I can't explain it
myself (perhaps someone else can), but once their term is up, their term is up.
They can be arrested for trespassing. Nanci Pelosi will assume the Presidency.

4. When did the fact something was illegal ever stop those two?

[melody]

6. Oh, that's quite true, but we'd have the fun of seeing them dragged off to the hoosgow n/t

[shadowknows69]

8. Who's going to arrest them?

Gonzales? He and Bush's hand picked, democrat enabled Supreme Court will make it all nice and "legal"

[melody]

12. Well, that's provided they don't back-up into the Supremes

And we get a monarchy officially for the first time in 231 years. Watch them do it
on July 4th, if so.

2. By god I wish I were thirty years younger

but, if necessary I'll put my crippled ass on the line, we have to do something, it's better to live on our knees than to die whimpering with a big mac in our hand and a dictator's boot on our throat.

5. We'll bitch.

No, it doesn't look as if they will be stopped. The justice department is crooked, the courts stacked, and we're not going to impeach. All this stands lest a miracle presents itself.

7. It Is Actually Worse Than You Think

They WANT the people to try to "rise up", so they can put us in our place for good.

[shadowknows69]

9. They might not want to call that bluff

We have kind of a history of kicking tyrants named George out of this country.

10. I hate to admit it...

But the inmates are fleeing the assylum...

And Nurse Ratchet Cheney (A.K.A double-o heh...) & Inmate Numero Uno (A.K.A. Churchill Jr) have barricaded their office doors to outside intrusions...
like 5 years ago!!!!! :crazy: :wow:

Also, they got the football on their side of the wall :nuke:

[Marrak]

11. Of course, a nuclear winter

may work out well for the persecuted "snowmobiler"...
and Nurse Ratchet Cheney has bestowed overly generous favors upon them in the past...

:hide:

The point being is that these fu*kers can do what ever they want and we can just bend-over and take it for another 18 months and hope they don't set off a third, fourth or fifth war or worse.
