We must assemble an 'invisible army' to defeat the Dictatorship
Edited on Fri Nov-05-04 08:13 PM by ck4829
If we can do something and the Republicans do not know that we have done it, then there is no way for the Republicans to counter it.

We build up a giant Democratic movement somehow in secret. Yes, I know that is a paradox, but I believe it may be possible.

It's Brainstorm time.
Do you have any suggestions on how pull something like this off?

2. I Agree. Here are some very "visible" suggestions
1. Anyone tired or in a trance, get out of it and try to make others do likewise. Repukes depend upon us falling into catatonic states while they scheme away and we lose valuable time. Then they run rings around us and we wonder why.

2. Pursue every avenue of investigation into the integrity of the voting in OH & FL. I suspect that the Mother Lode of tampering is in Brother Jeb's Fiefdom. Don't worry about whether we will ever be able to prove anything, let's just do everything to spread the word and support groups willing to investigate.

This will have to be done without either Kerry or the DNC. Too bad folks like Michael Moore are in coma; the RNC depends on us doing that. We can live without Moore, but we do need Soros. Maybe Soros should meet the Bev and the BBV group and finance their voting fraud investigations?

3. Objective of #2 should not so much be to try to get reversal of the election results as to permanently (re)stain Chimp and create a stench, no matter how small, that will persist and erode. The true gift that keeps on giving. If more results occur, so much the better...but if 1/2 the nation suspects another stolen election and retains that opinion, then we have stolen much from Asshole. Get the message out. Remember in politics, casting doubt can be as good or better than proof.

4. Regroup and remember we are 1/2 of America. The media can say what they please, but it is our voices (media blaster) that will be heard and our boots that will demonstrate. Give Asshole a Hell on Earth and never surrender to "spare the country" some presumed ordeal or inconvenience.

Bush may rule, but we will make certain that he can never govern.

An illegitimate President reelected by a tainted election, remains illegitimate.

The Bush "mandate" is an Electoral WMD

5. We must do something to give backbone to those Democratic pricks in the Congress. We needed someone like Hillary for Minority Leader and we got Weenie Reid, the rollover dummie. OMG!

Instruction to Dems in Congress are very simple: 100% opposition to Bush 100% of the time. Those that cooperate with Chimp, let's try to get rid of them in 2006. That's the only active political block that we have so everything has to go into toilet training our respective congressional members. This will be very crucial but labor intensive.

4. what we need to do CAN'T be done in secret--
it must be a battle carried out publicly in the media, winning hearts and minds everywhere to our obviously more enlightened and humane beliefs.

The media will not be a willing participant, since they are in the pay of the other side and are the prime movers of the smear campaign against us.

We need to build an alternative media which becomes so popular that the mainstream media is forced to change its ways to compete with us. This happened in the late 60s with Rolling Stone and alternative journalism. It peaked with mainstream shows like All in the Family and the other Norman Lear shows. It can be done, and it is profitable. We need to get liberals like Lear and others to invest in this strategy and quick!

6. You're talking about "The Brotherhood"
Probably only subconciously, which makes it even more terrifying!

Ladies and Gentlemen, this *IS* 1984

Let us offer a toast to our leader Emmanuel Goldstein.

:toast:

I like the idea, though, make no mistake. It's either an underground brotherhood or saying "if there is hope, it lies in the prols".

Hmmmm...a legion of posters on all kinds of forums and blogs with the name of Tyler Darden. One wouldn't have to even post much a message to get the message across.
