Now the whole world can see that Bush is the moral equivalent of Saddam - and the Soviet Union. Now Bush is torturing and killing innocent people in a lawless Gulag Archipelago - Gitmo, Afghanistan, Iraq.

The Iraqis didn't throw off their dictator - and look what happened to them - they ALL got blamed.

Either we get rid of Bush NOW (not waiting for an "election") or we're gonna get blamed for our dictator's fuckups.

Not fair - but it's how history works. That's why either we get off our asses and get rid of Bush NOW - or we're all going down with him eventually somehow.

We don't need another website or another flash animation (although those are great things that get the ball rolling).

We have plenty of info and outrage NOW. Now is the time to have a bunch of old-fashioned demonstrations throughout the country (say, this Saturday) to show the world that WE THE PEOPLE do NOT stand behind Dictator Bush.

Otherwise it's gonna be a VERY long and painful 21st century with no more Geneva Convention, no more Constitution, no more Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty, no Kyoto Treaty...

It's only 2004 and LOOK what a mess this century already is. We KNEW it was going to be a bumpy ride - but this bumpy, this soon? The pace is picking up people.

The internet and the digital cameras have done their job. We can't sit around and wait for Kerry to say something rah-rah at the convention and then wait and see whether Diebold steals the election for Bush in Novemember.

We need to throw the bums out. NOW.
