Will they eventually self destruct?

[Sannum]

How many times can they get away with things? How many elections can they steal? How many times can they play the "moral outrage" card?

Do you think there is a chance that with all of their power, the fundie right and republicans will self destruct?

1. yes

you can only go so far on arrogance and lies. As Abe said, "You can't fool all of the people all of the time".

2. The pendulum is a myth

see this article..Bush is implementing the permanent destruction of the Democratic(or any opposition)party.

3. Responding to your questions: ' Not many more.' And 'absolutely!'

4. Eventually things come back to bite you in the butt

but I don't know how long it takes.

9. 20 years

for global warming to really become irreversible. this is the worst time to have people in power who care only about profit and not the profit's provenance. without a viable planet no one will need to worry about profit, since no one will exist.

5. how many can they steal?

Three presidential.

Then all Hell will break loose.

7. I hate to say it but I don't think so (would love to be wrong about it)

They have gone too far in cowing the opposition, in tearing down the old Checks and Balances, in infiltrating and destroying conventional media, of so much more.

I think that Bushler could get caught running down Pennsylvania Avenue with the severed head of Ted Kennedy in his hands and so very many of his supporters would decry it as Liberal Propaganda, and the Mighty Wurlitzer would play a tune, perhaps a Micael jackson tune, and people would sleepily forget.

Am I exaggerating? Maybe. It seems to me there is no end to the extent of the nazi-like denial built up in Bushevik supporters.

8. Yes, I have found myself wondering the same

Over in the Astrology Grp they are predicting that *co. will have a great fall sometime btw. 6/06-11/06... that THE PRESS will turn on him...and that he will disappear from public life, whether due to disgrace, impeachment, or an_____________ . He will leave the public arena fairly abruptly, from what I understand.

Keep the faith! This is one of the few things that has kept me hopeful (as crazy as that may sound)!

10. Not before causing revocable destruction to this nation, this Republic,

not before shredding the Constitution.

[Quakerfriend]

11. I know they seem so hell bent on destruction!

[AG78]

12. How many times?

Starting from when?

We've been overthrowing governments since at least the early 50's, if not earlier.

Most of human history has been about power winning.

How many elections? How many more will we have?

Self destruct meaning what? No longer play a role in American politics? That's impossible. They own politics. What are we going to do, stop the corporations that buy our leaders? If so, how? Write legislation? Tried that, didn't work.

How many times can they get away with things? I don't know, when does human existence end?

13. It's not a question of "will" but "when"

When the tipping point is finally reached, it's going to be BIG!

We're living in the "interesting times" curse favored by that Chinese saying.

Hold on to yours (or somebody else's) nuts.

14. Fuck, I just hope they all

rapture themselves outta here. If they have to drink some cool-aid to do it, so much the better!
