The G8 gives me cause for pause
When the G8 met in July 2001, the private plot to topple the Taliban was revealed. Two months later the WTC attack occured and the bombing of Afghanistan commenced right on schedule the following month.

This G8 has me concerned because Bush* appears to be pushing for Phase II of the PNAC agenda as he proposes to "promote democracy across the Muslim world."

Whatever the Mayberry Machiavellis are plotting, it's being discussed this week. If the timeline holds true, August (and the RNC Convention) and September might get a little dicey. Perhaps that's why the public has lately been fed more warnings of "terrorism" on the horizon.

Food for thought.....talk amongst yourselves.......

1. They can plot all they want.
Its over. The Plame deal and the torture memo will bring the whole racket down. Expect many more leaks

3. It may kill bush, it wont kill neo-conservatives
They survived Clinton, they will survive Bush losing. Our foriegn policy has been empirialist for generations and generations. This is not something that will just end.

2. Condoning torture is against American ideals
and Ashcroft's little arrogant display yesterday turned a lot of people off. The other day, ANOTHER person came up to me and said he agreed with my bumper sticker, which says, "Save Our Country-Vote Democratic 2004".
