WAR!

[ck4829]

The Far Right has declared war on America and Freedom a long time ago.

We're being bombed and we're being shot at, and it's time to wake up.

They want to rollback civil rights. They want to make women subservient. They want to throw GLBT people in prison, or worse.

It's time to strike back!

During the past 10 years, 183 people have died as a result of RW Domestic Terrorism. We can't sit back and take this. Who will be hurt next if the Far Right continues to have it's way.

I'm not going to be silent anymore.

2. How?

They want a violent uprising to justify shooting us, since they can't beat us intellectually. Now that they've rigged the election machinery, there's no reason to believe our votes will count, so taking back Congress next year may be impossible. Without Congress, there's no chance at impeachment. Protest is good in that its rallying our numbers, but it's also showing them just who to aim at. Do you have a plan, or are you just venting?

3. Here is my draft plan

Defund - Lawsuits against the Funders of the Right. Keep up the heat on Jack Abramoff

Discord - Implant feelings of hatred between the people in the RW

Distrust - Make the RW'ers feel as though the GOP leadership is not serving them

4. Good ideas. Here's what I can see being problems with those.

Defund - This is great, if we can beat their superior wealth, well placed politcal and judicial cronies and intolerably long time table of court action.

Discord - The right wing already hates each other, they just hate us more. The easiest way to unite a diverse group of people is against a common enemy. Maybe we can convince them we're not the enemy, but that would be difficult for me, because I hate the fucking traitors.

Distrust - These guys are used to hating their leadership, but they are trained to follow unquestioningly, whether by fundie Christian sects or by corporate or militant organizations. Many of them are already scared and paranoid, which is why they are so hell-bent to nuke anyone else.

If you can get around these things, your plan could work.

5. Here is how to do it

We shouldn't go around enacting this to the entire RW. It will work better if we were to only hit soft targets.

A good place to start the 'Discord' phase is to use Supreme Court Nominations to our advantage. We've already seen some discord and distrust when it was suggested that ** was going to nominate Alberto Gonzales as a Supreme Court Justice, they all hated this because the Far Right views Gonzales as a Lib'rul Commie.

Now another vacancy is open, I say it's time to create waves of fear and panic and make the RW believe that ** will indeed nominate Al.
