My plea and warning to all who will listen.
Edited on Tue Jul-24-07 11:32 PM by mmonk
A neutered constitution and rule by elective fiat controlled by monied interests and insured by a rightwing court and legal system is not in the interest of the citizens of the United States.

3. I hear you and agree. We need to evacuate the neocon system......
of government and eliminate rule by the corporations then insure it does NOT return. Elect the right candidates and hold them to their election promises.

7. No, it won't. You want to cure all the symptoms? Go after the real power on Wall Street
The real power in America does not hold elective office. It gets elective office to work for it. I'm talking about the industrialists and bankers who run the big corporations and own all the valuable land and fund many political campaigns.

You need fundamental constitutional reforms to stop that kind of power. Impeachment won't do it alone.

8. True. Failure to Impeach will be catastrophic.
Just as tacit approval for Stalinist election theft simply opened the door to more fascism.

Now, tacit approval of their "enabling acts" -- torture, spying, terrorizing the nation, one-party justice -- opens the door for even worse.

It will continue to eat through the fabric of our once-great nation like an acid.

Only Impeachment ... can stop the downward spiral.

9. We are at the end of the Republic.
The cabal has broken the fundamental basis of the system and it does not appear that it is going to be patched up this time.
