So, what is at stake if Bush gets another 4 years?
More rightwing supreme court judges?
Overturning Roe v. Wade?
The 7 nation war plan Wes Clark told us about?

What else?

1. Nothing less than the future of civilization
For the longest time, I thought that he was merely stupid and corrupt, but I am now convinced that he is also stark raving mad.

10. Now. . . most foreigners hate Bush
but they cut Americans slack because of the slimy way in which he was "selected". If he wins again. . .they'll hate us as well.

Sorry to belabor the obvious but. . .

Psssssst. . .hatred causes terrorism.

Annnnnnd. . . NO BODY IN THE WORLD HATES FREEDOM.

They hate the oppression they've experienced due to our lame assed, insensitive, and uncompassionate foreign policies.

5. Judging by what's happening in Michigan, Minnesota, et al,
gays are becoming the "new Jews".

Anybody who isn't hardcore faux-Christian as * is will ultimately be a target. But the GLBT people are early contenders for being exterminated under the New Order.

What's happening is social re-engineering, set from the highest level.

7. Lots more war
If he gets another four years, he'll probably have long enough coattails to bring in 60 Senators and a bunch of House members, which will mean:

More rightwing court judges... guys that make Scalia look like a moderate.
Goodbye to:
Miranda rights.
Right to privacy -> right to contraception, abortion, death.
Free Exercise rights.
Establishment clause.
Symbolic Speech rights.
"Indecent" Speech rights.

Probably an anti-gay amendment to the Constitution. Maybe others, too.

13. My future.
If LuciBush gets "elected" for another 4 years, I'm really leaving. For another country. We'll see what happens after that.
