It's February 2, 2005. A Democrat is in the White House

[ulysses]

and (what the hey, let's blue-sky it) Congress is held, even if tentatively, by the Democrats.

You...

1. followup question for #2 voters

What is the business at hand, in your world?

[EstimatedProphet]

5. The business at hand is undoing the last 4 years

roll back the tax oppression, destroy the Patriot Act, build bridges between Americans...all the things that would frustrate OBL, rather than make him happy (OBL won when the Patriot Act went through).

[ulysses]

8. LMAO!

Love the sig graphic! :D

[pmbryant]

6. Restoring fiscal sanity by raising taxes on the super-rich

That needs to be the #1 priority after Bush is eliminated. Otherwise we won't be able to afford anything else.

EDIT: Of course, replacing all the ideological Bush appointees at the Justice Dept, EPA, State Dept, DoD, etc is a given and hopefully will be proceeding at a rapid clip after Jan 20, 2005.

7. what about corporate taxes?

After all, the rich shouldn't bear the brunt alone. ;-)

[redqueen]

10. True

Ending the tax giveaways and shelters will have to be a top priority as well.

[pmbryant]

12. Yes, corporate welfare should be drastically scaled back

This should be very close to the top of the agenda.

9. Raising taxes on top 2%

Ending corporate monopoly of public discourse.

Getting thrown in jail for not agreeing with the WTO, NAFTA, CAFTA, FTAA, etc. giving corporations the right to rule the world.

Raising awareness of the need for a living wage.

Raising awareness of the need for mandatory vacation time.

Raising awareness of the need for single-payer healthcare.

etc.

2. It wil still be in GOP hands

So I'm assuming the first move to Impeach the new Democrat President will be offered within the first 100 days.

[K-W]

3. This situation would be the open door we need

to take as much control as possible of a new democratic order. Progressivism could gain alot of momentum.

[ulysses]

4. what do you see us achieving in such an order?

[DoYouEverWonder]

11. 1. Enact an executive order

to implement the New Apollo Project

2. Set up a special prosecutor to examine the crimes against humanity committed by the Bu$h administration.

3. Start working the phones and start mending the bridges that W burned with the members of the international community.

[Old and In the Way]

13. Above and articulating a new energy policy to confront the future problems

of post-Peak Oil world. Time for us to take back our US energy/national security agendas that the Bush family has co-opted for their personal financial gain over the past 30 years.

[ulysses]

14. yes.

MUCH agreed.
