It's coming kids....the escalation, then the shouting..next

[mtnester]

the pushing and shoving.

Although I was too young to particpate in the Vietnam protests, I see where all this is going. Civility is THIN right now...very thin. Thin enough that everyone ought to be thinking about what happens when that membrane collapses.

Are you all ready for what is to come? I am...my husband is...we KNOW...we absolutely are convinced, that soon, it will be in the streets, hard, heavy and it WON'T be pretty.

Are you all ready?

[fooj]

1. I have to be! This is MY COUNTRY, damnit!

Peace.

[Duer 157099]

2. Huh? Is this cspan coverage of senate meeting?

are they pushing and shoving each other now?

[mtnester]

8. No, I am referring to the general feelings of this country, currently

being reflected in the House.

And, I would not be surprised in ANY way if a pushing match happens the...it would be the appropriate/expected place (not in the Senate)

[LaurenG]

[LSK]

5. no way, people are too busy watching TV to get violent

[DoYouEverWonder]

6. Don't worry, most of the freepers

won't make it past lunch and certainly not past diner.

[Warren Stupidity]

7. You are correct

They are not going to go quietly. We all have to be very brave and very committed to peaceful nonviolent change.

[coffeenap]

10. Iam--I promised my recently deceased parents that I would not

let facism take over here--HERE!!! Here, where millions have flown to escape the shit we are perpetrating on others. HERE! My84 year old mother saw it coming 3 years ago. Yes, I will be in the streets, all 5 ft, 110 lbs of me!! And I swear it on the heads of my beloved children!

[StellaBlue]

11. Look at the 'youth'

Nothing's gonna happen. Not on the street. People don't give a shit, really. Most people.

This isn't France.

The goosesteppers must be stopped lest they wrap the cold right-hand around civilization further.

18. The shit's about to hit the fan

I had a deju-vu just now while reading a post concerning Murtha. This means that all the shit I envisioned associated with that deja-vu is in motion NOW. I can't remember all the specifics, but some serious political leading to social unrest is about to happen...

[bonito]

19. I had a dream a few days ago .

Hakuna Matata Peace

[nadinbrzezinski]

20. yes have said it in the past these are the prelims

the fun is about to truly begin, or rather the horrors... and I hope it remains peaceful, I truly do

[jazzjunkysue]

21. I was yelled at by a co-worker this week. "Stop talking politics."

The war is already on. This is a mousy woman who would normally not ever offer a strong opinion of any kind. She lost it on me. This is unhinging GOP loyalists and lots of clueless followers. We're losing our faith in our country and we're not gonna be quiet about it.

Finally, people are taking this war personally.

[Catherine Vincent]

22. I wouldn't mind seeing some pushing and shoving in the House!

And lots of republicans beat down. :)

[Carla in Ca]

23. When I protest with Code Pink every Wednesday night

we find more and more positive feedback. Lots of honks, peace signs and waves. BUT, the ones who do shout at us are getting meaner. What started months ago as a boo or a thumbs down has now become really nasty remarks, and cars driving closer to us.
It is a little scary at times but we are all committed and will not ever stop...until this 'war' stops.
