Kerry offers Solutions! Bush gives us Problems. What is taking so Long to
Understand this??

"Aunt Jemimah, What took You so Long??"

When will America make the shift to understand the difference between the two candidates? One is a Loser and the other is a Winner.

Bush and his PR staff utilizes Delusion and brain washing to remain in the "Coaching Position". Despite a very horrible track record with 4 losing seasons, the Bush wants another 4 year contract?

Do we Americans have the Courage to try another "Coach"?? One that has a Winning Record? Or are we wimps that suck for the Pub PR? Cling to the Notion Bush is a LEADER? Ask any NFL owner if he/she would retain a Losing Coach 4 straight years if another "winning Coach" is available? Its a "No Brainer guys".

Kerry, while not perfect, gives America the best Odds for a better, safer, healthier, richer, America and, indeed, the World.

What is taking so Long for Americans to understand this?

Auwe, auwe,
Bush Pilikea O Ka aina

Come, we vote Kerry, Luaus Forever

1. Here's what I think
Just look at how the media have pumped up Bush this whole time and ignored his insanity. Despite this, he is horribly unpopular. He really is. They try and try to spin it, and the media gives more time to supporters than detractors (although that is beginning to change a bit) and still, opposition is growing, and I believe is much stronger than the media is telling us, or wants to tell us.

The Mayberry Machiavellis has made numerous miscalculations, but the one thing that has become their undoing is that in following their hero, they forgot that Machiavelli never had to deal with the internet.

4. Yup, BS can take one only so far. After awhile it starts to smell real bad
The Bush people have given America Photo ops, BS, etc etc.

If he was That Good, he wouldn't have to spend 1/2 a Billion Dollars to get re selected. If he was so good, he would be re elected by popular acclaimation.

He and his Pub Masters have no recourse but to cling to BS brain washing.

2. Things are going beautifully.
My only worry is a Republican revolt at the convention.

Or an idiotic riot in the NYC streets.

We need to make Bush and his fear mongering look ridiculous. His last hope is that he can claim to be needed to quell unruly and unpatriotic citizens.

9. Having survived many anti-war demonstrations . .
. . in the sixties. Here's how I think it will go down.

The cops are right now practicing riot control and learning how to use new high-tech weapons on us. The "practicing" gets them fired up and trigger happy.

During a demonstration coming soon, the cops will provoke a serious outrage. They will wear intimidating uniforms and use intimidating rhetoric to first get the demonstrators into a bad mood.

Then, they will viciously attack someone, probably a women, and they'll do it in front of a large group of demonstrators who will react instinctively and protectively. Maybe they'll shoot her with their taser while she's handcuffed like they did that 9 yo girl yesterday.

At that point, "in defense" they can do anything they want. They'll be able to put all that training to use and take out their anti-liberal hatred on anyone who they can reach with their boots or batons. They can "do their thing" to support the troops - in their own little way.

This will all be blamed on drug-crazed, violent, anti-war rioters, of course - on the news. The RW bobble heads on cable will go nuts. There will be many frothings of the mouth and gnashings of the teeth.

That will encourage freepers and other right wing thugs to attack liberals wherever we may gather to demonstrate or protest. They are basically cowards, but with the cops showing the way and with *, Asscroft and other RW assholes screaming about the lawlessness, they'll gather the courage to go around in gangs beating up defenseless liberals in smaller groups wherever they find them.

The cops are then congratulated by their commander and give each other the high-five at the squad meeting the next day.

Just be ready for it. Hope for the best but expect the worst. The violent feelings and anger now between the two political sides are far worse than during Nam. But, very few anti-war people have been radicalized so far. This will happen no later than the RNC convention IMO.
