1. My answer is yes.
My hope is that after 6 years of having these neo-con ass holes control our country, Americans have seen them for what they are and that they have had enough.

12. A qualified 'NO'
If the 2006 mid-term elections see Repub. gains or the maintenance of the status-quo then I say NO because that to me will indicate it's too late and that a sizeable portion of the country deserve their long dark night they get such a hard-on for.

2. I am not sure any more
Being that the vast majority of the populace is f**cking nonchalant about what is going on.

5. YES, IT IS!
Edited on Sat Jan-14-06 03:33 PM by Independent_Liberal
So many people around here seem to think it isn't. That's not true! Impeachment is a matter of life and death! I'm not fucking around! They're going to create a police state and institute martial law and set up death camps. Do you want that to happen? I mean it people, there will be no United States of America if we sit around and wait for a pendulum swing. We must act now! The future of the world depends on it! I'm not kidding. Are you hearing me? I hope so.

saving all of them from these bastards.

My husband could easily apply for Greek citizenship, his parents have a house, and with the housing market the way it is here we could easily sell our house and live ok. When I've reached my limit you will hear me begging him to start the process, he says no. Later I will remind myself that if we leave that means 2 less people (well possibly 4 if we raise our children to truly respect life and freedom) to help you all.


edited, lol to say that the "US" in the header does not stand for "USA", but for you (collective) and me, you know "us". freaking need to go back to sleep.

7. That is why we are here to try and save her.
We all remember what America was and dream that we can restore her to the glory we once knew.
Forever tarnished she will be from these bastards but we must save what we can and then work to restore what is possible once they are in prison.

I went to his global warming speach here in NYC a couple of years ago and it was brilliant. Unfortunately not much has changed since. That is the problems of not being in power or rather robbed of power in Gore's case. Robbed us all actually. It is still unbelievable to me that the 2000 steal could have occurred.

10. What America are you trying to "save?"
The "American Dream" is a myth. It's pursuit is rooted in greed, guns and genocide. Now that fascism has spread to effect folks who traditionally enjoyed a certain level of perceived "entitlement," it needs to be saved? Whatever ... Hope, my friend, lays in revolution.

"With liberty and justice, for all."

14. It may be too late.
I fear there will be nothing to save. The 2006 elections will clearly be fixed; 2007 will be a year of martial law and entrenchment of power; 2008 will see no elections, or at best, "elections" crowning an emperor. Maybe Bush, maybe someone else. But in any case, there will be no election in 2012. Germany, 1933. Check your history.

15. Honestly, i am beginning to wonder. At least in it's present form it isn'
in my opinion. I never thought I would live to see the day when I am ashamed of and sick of my own native country.

20. they are just TAKERS
we have to be able to control our own government, and we will. There is an American spirit, that they have nothing to do with. We are the multicultural country, and it will only increase.
