253. maybe its starting
I am thinking as I read this that this could be the simple beginning of a real anti-war movement finally, a peoples' movement against Facism. Cindy could start a kind of momentum which could pick up alot of steam. Just as the Freedom marches did down South and Mario Savio at Berkeley in 64'. The movement badly needs to get a human face. Rove and the other dedicated facists already know this. They will try to coopt this woman to defuse the energy but if they are stupid and do nothing and she is arrested then we have a story that the thrill seeking Media will cover. Then more people will become interested in the human side of this facist invasion. The power is only in the peoples' hands. No democrat in Washington can do anything. Most are already bought by corporations. The few with integrity and courage are completely marginalized. That is until a real peoples' movement begins. New leaders need to emerge who are exciting and electrifying. They should come from right out on the street and from simple American homes. No representative or politician is going to put his shrunken balls on the line to stop all this madness and face down facism. What we have right here and right now is a de facto facist state with a 24/7 noise machine spewing lies and propaganda that make lies sound like truths and truths sound like lies. But high personal emotion,people momentum,sit-ins,facing down facist power and a strong human face could just turn the tide. There is absolutely no question in my mind that what remained of a semi-functioning representative system was overthrown in December 00'. The Junta has amassed great concentrated power since then and will do anything, anything at all to hold onto this power. Bush himself is just a moronic puppet who perfectly reflects the sick and fearful underbelly of American consciousness. A crude,ignorant,sadistic and deeply self-centered buffoon. He has held the mirror up to American culture. America must take responsibility for its sickening dark side before it ever removes this canker from its rectum.
