Umm, let me get this straight--The Dow has been dipping
below 10K

Oil is $55 a bbl & gas locally at $2.10

Bush has lost 1 million jobs, plus replacing millions of good jobs with burger-flipping gigs.

The Iraqi war is a total mess, with nearly 1100 Americans KIA.

Osama is still on the loose, most of Afghanistan is ruled by the warlords, & their opium production is at record levels.

Bush lost all 3 debates, & Cheney lost his, too.

A bunch of Nobel economics laureates have joined the Nobel scientists and the country's most distinguished military leaders in condemning Bush's administration as incompetent.

And today Zogby says Bush is winning.

2. Signs point to the poll being freeped
It wouldn't be that hard. If I wanted to do it, say, in Kerry's favor, I'd register as a Republican Evangelical Male, and vote for John Kerry.

People have said that Rove said, "Watch the Zogby poll."

3. Mind-boggling, isn't it?
And yet everywhere I go in this country I see an overwhelming majority of Kerry/Edwards bumper stickers and yard signs.

7. We all have to consider the fact the Amerika may be ripe for and desiring
to be enslaved.

That thinking is too hard, that it is better to blindly follow Der Fuhrer because he is Sent By God.

We must all come to grips with the fact that Amerika may have been driven clinically insane, not just by the Busheviks and Goebbels v2.0, but by our entire Celebrity Bootlicking culture (once you start licking boots, it's tough to stop, I suppose).

remeber, many definitions of facsism state that the nation must have frst at one-time been politically free.

And that the Nation itself chooses the path and Der Fuhrer as much as it is the other way around.

Now, I don't deny the Busheviks are lying, cheating and stealing at a level not seen outside the Thrid-World, to which Amerika now belongs. But, as with the 1930s Germans, enough of us are misled or lazy or stupid or driven mad enough to buy the blatant Orwellian Goebbelsian Lies to make it close enough that the cheating will carry them over the top.

8. the fix is in on the Zogby poll
when Rove comes out a couple days before and says specifically to watch Zogby you better understand some behind the scenes biz took place. What that was can be any guess ..blackmail, corruption anything, you name it but this is EXACTLY what took place at the beginning of the Swift Liars stunt when people started to mention Rove and the white house were behind it. He made a statement then to watch the Gallup poll and within days Gallup had shrub up by 5points.

14. My neighbor has a new Bush bumper sticker
I met her a couple of winters ago when I tried to help her find her lost cat. I don't know her name or much about her but I know she and her husband bought their home a long time ago before prices went sky high. Now it's populated by white-collar types but she's a waitress and I don't know that her husband works at all. I just don't get it. Maybe they think they're rich because the price of their home has increased by one or two hundred grand, but, you know, that's only on paper.
