America disappeared in the year 2000
Edited on Fri May-07-04 09:03 AM by vetwife
I hate to say it. I hate to rain on anyone's parade but this is something we need to admit as much as you and me are trying to take it back. we must continue to try and Take it Back with registering voters, and rallying against Bush but America is gone as we once knew it.

Look at what this administration has done and gotten away with ! We have had an outing of a CIA agent. We pulled out the Kyota Treaty and gutted environmental laws. We have been lied to about WMD's. We have allowed this man and his circle of friends to hide things from the congress, and we the people.

The Supreme Court with Scalia is a joke. Laughing at us by not recusing himself when it came to his buddy Cheney. Knowing he can get away with it. Taking away our civil liberties, allowing this administration to run all over us with their misleading, taking away civil liberties, no regard for legislators, calling police on the democratic legislators, look at the Gay treatment? squandering surplus, throwing us in debt for decades, abusing prisoners of war, capturing and holding people with no trials, lawyers, etc. Lying about medicare and allowing our infrastructure of schools and medical facilties deterioate. Taking away social programs. Cutting overtime pay. Privatazing everything. Turning our country over to Corporations and Right winged fundamentalists and throwing the constitution on its head while gutting the bill of rights. Taking over the media, cutting veterans affairs, only keeping a few in the loop and we get the bill in the billions and trillions? They (whoever they are) are telling you that you are too stupid to think for yourself and they will not be held accountable for anything as they (whoever they are) are above any law or constitution of the world. they want world domination and create havoc. They have made it unsafe to live anywhere in the world and we are supposed to just sit back and take it. They have reduced our dissent to a focus group and they have no regard for our fallen soldiers and ship them home in tubes with no respect upon arrival. They (whoever they are) have taken away the soveringty of nations, womens rights and castrated any man who tries to oppose them.(politicially) Look what they (whoever they are) did to Max Cleland, are doing to John Kerry, and even one of their own John McCain. (whoever they are).

They are making us eat God knows what, they control our meds at their price, and they are shifting numbers in the job market to look like everyone is working and happy. We are breathing God knows what, and the water is (God knows what) ! They (whoever they are) are calling we dissenters unpatriotic and unamerican. Well Where is America? It was outsourced in the year 2000. They (whoever they are) are trying to win by appealing to the left through Nader. To split the votes. Nader is taking away crucial votes in battleground states and not from Bush. He shows up where Bush is and even though I am not a big Kerry fan, we can impeach him if we don't like what he does and doesn't do the will of the people. We can do nothing under this tryannay of a place we used to call America but be forced to pledge allegience to They (Whoever they are) and wave a flag made in China run up a pole made in India.
Wake up and smell the fascism and coup da ta ! We can continue to try and take it back in 2004 as we tried in 2002 and we have to contend with fixed voting machines. This is not the home of the free. This is the home of the fearful. I gave you a summation of the CD and there is more there but for those who have not heard it, you got the jest. We can do better. So much better. Can we be heard. Please ..Please its up to We the People. Take it Back !

3. The outrage is sointense in my heart..Why is this not being done ?
I want to know...Why are we not demanding accountability !
They are not reading our faxes, emails, snail mail....they aren't.
They are dissing us as we were nothing !

2. Yep
The strangest thing about all of this is the fact that so many people still choose to keep their heads in the sand....

6. Someone said here months ago......
This administration could rape and pillage right in front of our eyes and there would be no accountability. How much closer to the truth is that than what has happened in Iraq. And guess what ! No accountability...Not where the buck stops !

7. The Right Wing is trying to roll back the 20th Century.
Basically, every bit of progress in the 20th Century is
being dismantled systematically.

9. True..The first occupation was when we ran the Native americans off
My husband is cherokee and we called those folks savages and took their land, made them go to a reservation, impoverished them and took away their native tongue. Aren't we happy we know so much about democracy !

13. Those "savages"
Those "savages" who across the social stratum had a lifestyle that supported working 20% of the time and feasting, beading, visioning, weaving, gaming, running, canoeing, hunting, and playing with their children the other 80%?

You are so mistaken. Surely you can see capitalism is a grand improvement.

And shoes instead of moccasins. We know high heels are much more comfortable. Those poor savages. No high heels. WTF?

12. Who are whining jerks?
All on this board contribute to his removal !
I alone have put a Cd mini move on type pro opposition and removal of Bush.
I know hundreds here who support Guy James and Randi Rhodes
I know many here registering voters
What do you suggest..We all go buy AK47's and blow em up? That would make us no better than them.
Nobody is whining here. we are discussing.
I am a frequent caller on C-Span
disabled vet and disabled activist
I shut Katherine Harris down on CNN with a question. Bartcop and Guy has it.
I contribute to these sites.
I send out flyers.
I publicly speak
I think we do pretty good and I surely don't consider myself a whiner.
Type in my name on google. Amanda Kato
I don't whine !
