THE FEAR CARD BEING PLAYED AGAIN?
Hello everybody. I hope you had a great Christmas and I hope your New Year goes Democrat. Not corporate democrat but grassroots. Ok. I've got some loaded questions for you. Are you ready? Here we go.

1. Is it just me, that I'm seeing the fear card played again or is it for real? I mean after all, CNN, MSNBC, and all your little corporate outlets seem to be really playing this terrorist threat up really big. You see, my problem is, the media lies so much and protects Bush, I'm sort of confused as to who is telling the truth or not telling the truth. After all, it's election year. Maybe they are just trying to quieten down the impeachment and the Tom Delay corrupt congress issue. Wow! Seems we haven't heard anything on that in a while. Isn't it amazing what corporations can do? They can buy government and get things done on your tax dollars. It seems to me it's not fair that the American people really don't have a voice unless you have power, money and influence.

2. Now, we know what the problem is. Ponder on this for a few days before you quickly answer me. What are you and I going to do about it?

3. Is there anything we can do about it? Do you feel like you are losing your civil rights? Are we going to wait until we loose all of our civil rights before we wake up and then try to do something before it's too late? I wonder what happened to all those sixties love children? Have they all died out or changed their politics? Oh, well. Maybe your like me. Maybe you're asking the same questions. I guess you can tell by reading that I am very frustrated but I'm just one voice. I sign petitions on a daily basis. I write my congressmen and senators on a daily basis. Hell, they should know me well in Washington by now. But I'm sure they just laugh at me and say Ole' Bill is just one voice.

4. What do you think is going to happen to Iran? Bush has already admitted he loves war. So, is old Bush going to try to get us into another war and if so, do you think the draft will be forced into reinstatement? As I said, I would really like to know if you feel like the media is playing up the fear card again? How much truth or propaganda is taking place with this terrorist thing?

Think about it. Your replys will be more than appreciated. And remember, I'm on your side.

1. The sixties love children are just plain old,for God's sake.
It's up to the young folks to make changes.
