If a president and Congress are not elected who will roll back the foul actions of Bush/Cheney, I truly fear for the future of the country and question whether it would be a place I'd want to live. <BR/><BR/>A McCain presidency and a couple of more "conservatives" - read fascists - on the U. S. Supreme Court and the damage may be irreversible for a long time to come.Michael-in-Norfolkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06330888799107186550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34239589.post-24712852864560113802008-08-09T10:38:00.000-05:002008-08-09T10:38:00.000-05:00Michael: I agree with you that most Americans wou...Michael: I agree with you that most Americans would be shocked at the breadth of illegality, lies and deception the Bush administration has resorted to in order to achieve thier agenda - including the war in Iraq - if the truth ever comes to light. But what frightens me more is how readily the pubic has gone along with all of it until recently.<BR/><BR/>Hitler did not rise to power in Germany through any sort of revolutionary act: he and his Nazi Party followers were democraticaly elected. Through demogogary, fear and deception the Nazi's succeeded in creating the modern Western world's most evil of regimes yet all of it was done in much the same way that the Bush administration has succeeded in "re-making" American society and government. In both cases the respective publics were complicit contributors to the success of each. <BR/><BR/>I began to understand just how far our society had strayed from my own view of what America should be about when Bill Mahr got kicked off network television for stating that the 911 terrorists were not cowards and expressing his opposition to invading Iraq. He spoke for me.<BR/><BR/>And this is why I beleive that the election this year is probably the most important election we will have since World War II. We need to get the country back where it belongs - where people can express themselves without fear of retribution, where the least among us is valued simply as a fellow human being, where religion is personal, not a political statement, where our government works for us, not against us and where all Americans have rights afforded to us in the Constitution. <BR/><BR/>Take Care.<BR/><BR/>ScottAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
