The Dean story is done, now it's time for Sensenbrenner & the Patriot Act.
Yippee!!!

This is a test, ya'll. If this story doesn't take off we'll know the media is protecting the Pugs. This is Michael Jackson level stuff.

I know, Downing Street Minutes. But be patient, it is growing. DSM is likely unkillable at this point. There's room for another story.

If the Republicans only knew the shitstorm that is about to hit them. The dam is about to break on all kinds of scandalous behaviors that we've had to put up with out of the eye of the average citizen. We are getting nearer everyday to the tipping point..., if we haven't already passed it.

4. how is it that Dean can make a factual statement
Edited on Fri Jun-10-05 05:22 PM by MissWaverly
about Republican membership that has been backed up by CNN & ABC and
the Republicans are outraged, but they are not outraged about Sensenbrenner offensively and officiously shutting down a hearing in the middle w/o debate. This is acceptable????, shall democracy be shrugged off that lightly! It is their freedom too that is being threatened, right now the wind is behind them propelling them forward but is it to a safe haven or to be crushed on the rocks. Right now they are safe because they mindlessly follow those in power but these people rule by whims and there is no guarantee that they will always be safe and secure. The minute they are no longer useful they will either be discarded or discredited.

6. Gees. I hope so.
But if there is no media coverage on any of these things there can be no groundswell. Our best hope is the Net. We all need to get the word on on the only forum left to us. Our best hope is that we will have enough to overcome the deaf media, the election fraud, and the abuses of power in 2006.

If we win even one side of Congress in 2006, the Repugs will rue what they have done to this republic.

What I really worry about is the extent the Repugs will go to maintain their power. I am very, very worried.

11. While it is worthwhile to discuss Dean's foibles, I agree that NOW is NOT
Edited on Fri Jun-10-05 06:59 PM by Nikki Stone 1
the time. Our energy would be better spent in other areas. The PATRIOT Act is a great focus. Also, for Southern Californians, to discuss the deceptive behavior of Ahnold as he tries to ignore the Democratic process and screw over the teachers' union would also be productive.
