We are going to War with Iran.

http://www.newyorker.com/fact/content/?050124fa_fact

This is the NEW YORKER. A very reputable magazine. If we don't act now, we will go into another war with Iran.

Remember Bush's promise of no draft? its gone now.

We need to get rid of him NOW!

It's too late. We are powerless, unless people come to realize that putting him back in office was a HUGE mistake, we're up a creek without a paddle. Who's going to stop him? Certainly not the Democrats.

At least we can try! If we all E-mail all our Congressmen and get people riled up, maybe we can get him impeached. Let's try!

I agree we can try, and we should try. It's just so disappointing to know that he has control over this country for another four years. I feel as though the Democrats didn't fight hard enough and because of their lack of fight, Bush is still in office. Maybe in a few months I'll feel differently, but right now, I'm totally disgusted with the whole political process.

Its called riots. Lets push and push on January 20th.

If something breaks, lets turn that crack into the size of the Russian Mafia.

Yeah, although I'd like to give up, I guess we can't.
This Social Security thing is another one of his 'feed the rich'
campaigns. Bush is a dry drunk and is going to ruin us all.

Sorry folks, but the only way you're going to catch this cat is to put a piranha into the fish tank.

All very true, and not only Iran, but almost every Middle Eastern country. Remember the 1993 World Trade Center attack? There were some intelligence people in that group, supposedly to "monitor" the situation, but they may have participated in, or even instigated it. Now this (quoting the article):

"Under Rumsfeld’s new approach, I was told, U.S. military operatives would be permitted to pose abroad as corrupt foreign businessmen seeking to buy contraband items that could be used in nuclear-weapons systems. In some cases, according to the Pentagon advisers, local citizens could be recruited and asked to join up with guerrillas or terrorists. This could potentially involve organizing and carrying out combat operations, or even terrorist activities. Some operations will likely take place in nations in which there is an American diplomatic mission, with an Ambassador and a C.I.A. station chief, the Pentagon consultant said. The Ambassador and the station chief would not necessarily have a need to know, under the Pentagon’s current interpretation of its reporting requirement.

"The new rules will enable the Special Forces community to set up what it calls “action teams” in the target countries overseas which can be used to find and eliminate terrorist organizations. “Do you remember the right-wing execution squads in El Salvador?” the former high-level intelligence official asked me, referring to the military-led gangs that committed atrocities in the early nineteen-eighties. “We founded them and we financed them,” he said. “The objective now is to recruit locals in any area we want. And we aren’t going to tell Congress about it.” A former military officer, who has knowledge of the Pentagon’s commando capabilities, said, “We’re going to be riding with the bad boys.”"

Not to be paranoid, but I'm sure that there are some on any blog who are actually not what they seem...

This is very scarey in a so-called free America. Bush is always saying he welcomes different oppioned people. Let's add to this blog what we can do to rid our selves of tyranny in America.

We can't have another war without a draft. If the draft is instituted, you are going to see all kinds of civil disobedience all across the country.

Until the draft is instituted, people will remain passive, unless some other major event happens, like the stock market collapsing, interest rates soaring, or something like that.

I think King George has gone mad again. He says he is doing it for God. Today they are all denying that's what he said. But msnbc, hardball and other news went after the president and said that's just what he means, war with Iran. Cheney on one thread was said to be instigating it.

That was a quote from Bush. He wants us to rid the world of tyranny. Let us dethrone The Mad King George!
