interesting quote on FreeRepublic

To: cake_crumb

Both parties are moving us closer and closer to a fascist police state in case you hadn't noticed. The two party system is a joke when all politicians become just different branches of a larger criminal organization. All they do is hand the power back and forth making to look like we really have a choice. Not the way it is.

Richard W.

7. Not Really
If the Republicans control everything and bad things happen (especially Facistism) are we at fault for allowing it to happen. That is the ONLY way to blame the Dems.

9. I agree. Evidence PATRIOT act.
Unfortunatly neither party has been worth a damn
at protecting civil liberties.

Neither party has a strong stand against drug war maddness
witness Tommy Chong in jail and the non-existant outcry
against this Ascroftian abuse in my party.

I support independant groups like the ACLU because the
party just doesn't take a stand for civil liberties.

Not to say that certain people in the party don't take
a stand like Russ Feingold who took a stand when it counted.

Unfortanatly Feinstein my own senater is one of the worst.

It is a depressing fact that we seem to inch towards 1984
year after year with only the speed of the slid being debated
between the two parties.
