I agree, the coup already happened....or does this current form our gov't has taken, represent US?...are we thrilled with what they do, in OUR NAMES...and insist that it continue? If that's so, then why do I see so much protesting, bitching and complaining about everything that happens, and people who keep hoping this next scandal will be the one that takes them all down..? yet, they just keep on, keeping on, like nothing, no matter how bad it is, even fazes them...why is that?? Have we admitted the degree of power it takes for them to be able to do this?

A caged animal is dangerous, and they don't fight fair, so I guess we can continue to play nice...but if * declares martial law and suspends the constitution, in the next couple years, in order not to be removed from OUR house on Pa. Avenue, how will we fight then?....

His current stance on Iraq is very telling as to HIS intent....."AS LONG AS I AM CIC, WE WILL FIGHT"..but, but, but, didn't the latest polls show some 70% favor immediate pullout...? IF this doesn't tell us something about his determination to have HIS way, then I admit, I am CONFUSED, and most likely very ignorant and uninformed..!!

Would there be risks to a military take over..sure, but I'd say, our place between a rock and a hard spot is getting tighter every day, and I seem to remember, we were also told by Kissinger and others over the years, that the changes would happen, slowly, right in front of our eyes..and we'd welcome them, in order to feel secure....I actually wish we could almost cast a "no confidence vote"...and oust this bunch...but we can't...nor can we impeach one of them, and leave the rest in power...so what do we do?

I know, let's just sit and wait and trust * to do right by us, or wait for the elections we hold, using rigged voting machines to turn things around for us..but IF that's the only way anyone can see the changes we need happening, or the only way that is acceptable, then I would suggest in the meantime, we also pray fervently and often!!
