I'm certain I'm wrong, but with all that is going on

[HEyHEY]

Insane gas prices, the war, the hurricane and how it's been handled, and how it's left the poor to die....etc

It feels like serious descent is in the works here. Will this month be the one that wakes america up?

[The Jacobin]

1. Probably not

If Rove gets his head out of his ass and can get Shrub to do what he wants, he can make Shrub look like the leader to rally around.

Shrub has flubbed it bad so far, but Rove can turn it around if Shrub lets him. Look for it.

2. Or plunges us into a permanent third world society

W knew the rich could evacuate so the heck with the rest.

[dolo amber]

3. THE END IS SERIOUSLY FUCKING NIGH

:o

[knowbody0]

4. without a doubt

the world watches as our government video tapes the slaughter of the poor

[Lifelong Protester]

5. maybe but...

some of us have been wide awake for several years (I'll even throw in decades for us boomers)....and can't help but wonder what the hell the other 51% of this country has been thinking...

[nankerphelge]

6. Nope...

because it would require American's to be introspective about what caused us to get here. So much easier to blame everything on someone else.

[Catch22Dem]

7. I doubt it

If they haven't awakened yet, there's no hope for them. Plenty of people will say that "this will be what brings the bush admin down..." but there's always someone who says that. I've been coming here for almost 4 years now. If I had a dime for every time I've seen a post like that, I'd be filthy rich.

[HEyHEY]

8. Sad but true

[havocmom]

9. The young man on MSNBC said it all

'Bush don't get to be president no more' followed by something which was bleeped out.

This young man was in the land of the GOP base. I am pretty sure he is not alone in his opinion.

People where I live are asking when the revolt starts and there are only about 5-7 registared DEMS in the whole county.

Yeah, a critical mass is about to hit the fan.

[ispeculate]

10. Well if there is a class war going on in the country, they just dropped a

daisy cutter on the middle class. Yeah it'll wake em up and theyll be bleeding out of their ears.

[wli]

16. yep, the rethugs really dropped a big one on the commoners n/t

[JVS]

11. Meh

I'll be ok

[dweller]

12. oh, hell no!

(but in the meantime, will you consider tidying up the spare bedroom for ... 76,011 or so visitors?)

btw, did you mean descent, or dissent?

[HEyHEY]

15. haha

ooops! I meant "dissent"

Stupid crappy memory

[dweller]

17. either way

you'd be right i'm afraid.

[Kazak]

13. If I had a nickel...

I'm just going to start saying that everytime...I'll be stinkin' rich eventually. ;)

[Cleita]

14. It may be the month that wakes up half of the 51%

that got us here. It means if 75% of us hate what is happening to us by this time, it makes the final 25% irrelevant. I would assume those are the rich people who benefitted from this BS. Although, it's probably really only 10% who are really have benefitted.

We need to do so much housekeeping and throwing out of the trash.
