This is the end result to years of division and propaganda...
When Americans are told point blank that their president has been spying on them illegally, their first response is the one they have been programmed to say by years and years of Limbaugh and Hannity and the right-wing extremists. "You just hate our president!"

Until we de-program these idiots and convince them that they are Americans before they are Democrats or Republicans, then we are doomed to continue down this road of destruction. You want to grab them by the shoulders and shake the shit out of them but then, they would only go get their gun and kill you. What is the solution?

1. The facade...
...will collapse. It will fall because it is a lie.

Unfortunately, it might be years from now after far more pain and suffering

2. Ask them if...
...the next president, maybe not a Republican, will also have these powers. "Can Hilary tap NRA's phones? Can Howard Dean tap Pat Robertson's?

4. They are already afraid of what a Democratic President will be
able to do with the Patriot Act. You can bet that they would not want any Democrat to have the same powers that they want to allow Bush to use (or abuse).

3. there will always be those who support tyranny.
our obligation is to oppose them. hannity, limbaugh and the lot are collaborators, they have a stake in the hatred. the average folk that support it, they are just foolish.
