The government of fear has become afraid of one woman
Cindy Sheehan has the bu$h regime so afraid that they all left town and even planned an anti terror exercise in her honor.
Bu$h ran off to hide in a bunker, I don't know if he thought the hurricane would reach Colorado but he is safe in the bunker. Cheney is in the hospital and the rest of the lawmakers simply left town.

1. "and the rest of the lawmakers simply left town" - NOT TRUE!
Edited on Sat Sep-24-05 07:30 AM by paineinthearse
John Conyers is marching with Cindy.

See http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=2110745&mesg_id=2110745

I know that many people will be coming to Washington for the End the War on Iraq rally here this weekend. This event will show the Bush White House how widespread the opposition is to the administration's war. I hope to see you if you can make the trip.

At 10:30 Saturday morning I will be at the rally in front of the Washington Monument. At 11:30 I will lead the march through Washington alongside Cindy Sheehan.

On 10:00 Sunday morning, I will be speaking at the Progressive Democrats of America's Grassroots Strategy Day at the University of the District of Columbia's Clarke School of Law.

What is your Representative doing this weekend?

11. Conyers for President!
The CBC is the ONLY group that seems to be standing up in Congress for the People! John Conyers is my hero!

2. This government flees from what they do not understand.
We are one nation, no longer indivisible, but hacked into pieces and under one party that thinks it is all powerful and a president who believes in the Divine Right of Kings.

3. It is not Cindy they fear,...
they fear the truth she speaks.
They do not want to be confronted with admitting they invaded Iraq to help the Israelis, and to let American and British companies get control in Iraq.
The sad thing is that all the people who have died for this war have died in vain. America and Britain will not keep control in the Middle East. We will be driven out like we were in Viet Nam by a determined people.
The hatred and mistrust of America will fuel further acts of terrorism against Americans because so many of us were stupid enough to support George Bush and his idiotic schemes.
All around, this is such a shameful chapter in world history.

4. Cindy is like a modern-day Mother Jones....
She creates the same type of concern and disdain in our leaders.

Just to show how inept reverse-midas-touch GWB is, after all the billions and all the lives and the violation of everything America used to stand for and the ruination of alliances developed over decades with other good countries, I don't think we're even gonna get CHEAP OIL at the end of this thing!

Or any oil at all, for that matter.

And it will probably be even harder for us to get oil from other sources now, too!

And I think we're all gonna fear fifty more years of terrorist payback for what GWB has done in the last five years.

On the bright side, we're getting fascism for government in the great USA!
