93. Jesus...let's learn from history and not repeat our mistakes...

- I guess I made a mistake in persuing this conversation. You seem to have no idea what's going on. But you're not alone. Most of the Democratic party has their eyes and ears covered so they won't have to do something, anything to stop the Bushies.
- I've offered a 'solution'...but you're too afraid to consider it. Suffice it to say that the Bushies have no intention of leaving the WH...even if they lose the 2004 election. Don't believe me? Let's pick up on this conversation again when Bush* serves his second term.
- What you fail to grasp is that we can no longer play 'politics as usual'. These are dangerous times and we CAN'T depend on the same Democratic institutions to guarantee free and fair elections...or even a 'free press'. Those things are gone and we have to find a new strategy to fight a new type of politician willing to win by any means.
- If I sound 'harsh' at your obtuseness it's because I'm amazed that you and most of the Democratic party just doesn't seem to 'get' the seriousness of the situation. You say that we MUST get rid of Bush*...but then offer no solutions beyond voting to accomplish that goal. But...what if Bush* once again pulls off a dubious 'win'? Will you say we'll just have to try harder next time? Blame Nader?
- Haven't you felt a twinge in your gut knowing that the Bushies have gotten away with so many things? They're not even going to be held responsible for their lies that pushed this nation to war OR outting a CIA agent. This is f**king treason and high crimes. Yet our response to this is simply running a candidate against this criminal in 2004? You can bet the farm that a Democratic president would have been impeached by this time if the roles were reversed.
