and patently goofy for anyone, or group of people; a splinter of the lunatic fringe, to usurp the American Federal Government against the will of it's citizenry and cast this nation into a shit storm of endless war for the personal gain of themselves, their families, and their no-bid cronies and it must be stopped!!!

1. Sy Hersh elaborates on an america that is seemingly helpless to stop this:

""The fact of the matter is we have a government that will do what it wants to do for the next two years," he said. "The worst is yet to come. It's sort of like we're essentially powerless just play it out.>>>>>>>>>snip



The article alleged - almost wholly through anonymous sources within the government - that the United States had begun formulating plans for an air strike against Iranian nuclear facilities and has even been considering a nuclear first strike, claims that the administration has denied.

"It may come down to the president making an order that the military will object to," Hersh said. "It would be devastating, but it may come down to it. My fear is that he will do what he wants."

At the same time, however, he said their belief in the mission is sincere.

"What doing now is not about the region, it's about us, protecting America. They really believe it. They say, 'We're protecting you, we're doing this for you,'" Hersh said."

3. i think the worst is yet to come, bush has basked in the most ignoble enabling...
the republican party has EVER provided and to a man that cares far less that two figs for the plight of people; in answer to a question when bush was thinking about running paraphrasing "What if it all doesn't work out, what if you don't win?" he answers...

"I'll go back to Houston, sit on some boards. And Laura and the girls and I will have a good life."

this is a guy that has never had to care, it is not in his psyche makeup.

4. I have a feeling the lid will come off on alot of the sneaky and evil doings
very soon. I have this feeling that the Libby trial is going to reveal alot more than is thought. As the testimony goes on I think some people will open up and say more than they planned and it will be the opening we have waited for.
After this other stuff will come out.

10. You can feel it too?
This house of cards is nearing its tipping point. It will collapse soon. It's been building up all of January. You can almost hear it hum. One month into the the year and we can already see the unsteady swaying, a few cards tipping

If that's what it's like now, imagine how things will be mid-March, perhaps.

Their setup is doomed. Our concern right now is to make sure it doesn't fall on our heads when it finally collapses. We have two options for the collapse - the administration gets torn apart, impeahment and / or treason hearings begin... Or war with Iran.

Write your congressmen, your senator, your govorners, your newspapers. Push as hard as you can for the former. We rule this fucking country.

Thanks, bridgit. You are absolutely correct.

The Bushes and their cronies did business with NAZIs.
The Bushes and their cronies did business with Commies.
The Bushes and their cronies did business with Big Oil
The Bushes and their cronies did business with Wall Street crooks.
The Bushes and their cronies did business with the Mafia
The Bushes and their cronies did business with Rev. Moon
The Bushes and their cronies did business with the Mafiya
The Bushes and their cronies did business with the Military-Industrial Complex
The Bushes and their cronies did business with Terrorists
The Bushes and their cronies did business with the KKK-Eugenics crowd
The Bushes and their cronies did business with the British Royal Family.

These are'nt what can be described as good "corporate citizen" types.
