excerpt:
The first such strategic assault must be about the voting procedures. If left as they are, our democracy is doomed. We must demand voting legislation that includes paper trails for all machines nationally, mandated recounts if the voting tally varies from the exit polls by more than .3%, and a mandated number of machines and poll workers per population. As the stories of voting irregularities and outright fraud begin to cascade through the media over the coming days, we can use this travesty to garner support. Our representatives in Congress should be pressured to do everything, including a permanent filibuster, to make this happen. If necessary, national strikes and boycotts of GOP corporate supporters are also an option. We need crystal clear talking points and a disciplined message to saturate the news media and fan the flames. Republicans can be portrayed as anti-democracy if they oppose us. At this dangerous juncture, an aggressive, targeted assault that will safeguard our future is the only sane path.

excerpt:
In 2005, Uranus will oppose Bush’s Mars, square US Uranus, and square Inaugural Moon, almost simultaneously. Historically, Uranus’ hard aspects to the US Uranus have brought revolutionary movements (the pre-Civil War secession of southern states), as well as policies and cultural shifts that have broken with tradition (Reagan’s Star Wars, the Martin Luther King holiday, LBJ’s War on Poverty, and the beginning of the Beatles phenomenon). The first phase of this coming transit will be in late March and early April 2005. It is possible there will be some kind of rebellion among the people of the US, possibly aided by a newly awakened press. The third house Saturn in the Inaugural chart suggests that there could be an increasingly tense relationship between the Bush administration and the press during this term, with the press being critical of and at the same time feeling repressed and stifled by those in power. The Uranus transit to US Uranus, ruler of the 3rd house which covers the media, could awaken a rebellious spirit in the press.
