War is the Number one Issue this time..
Edited on Mon Dec-22-03 02:52 PM by wanderingbear
This is the big sticking issue for the left this election. The entire election will be desided on this one Issue.. Beleave me If the Next Domocatic Party Canidate isnt Anti- war The Democrats will lose.
The Green/Progressives will make this an issue..If the Democrats dont dopt the green/progressive platform they will do the same thing they did last time. Vote for Nader..

2. Forget the economy...
deficit, homeland security blunders, falling dollar, international diplomacy, permanent loss of jobs, decline in wages, NCLB education reform and funding, same sex unions, loss of civil liberaties, etc, etc...


Wander elsewhere. Conservatives only wish it was the only issue but that is hardley the case.

5. No, the corporate control ot the government
The little guy and the Constitution are being trampled by the plutocracy. The issue is going to be the corporate control of the government with complicity from their media.

If Dean in fact wins nomination, his stance that the five media conglomerate that do the thought herding for the government will be broken up, will have the ring of truth. The monopolistic control of the public airwaves for promoting wealthfare will examlle, the present state of unchecked monopolistic capitalism.

The War in Iraq is just evidence of corporate power and greed and the total corruption of government. The War is the tip of the iceburg, and it is the iceburg that will be the primary issue despite what the corporate whores will not tell you.

6. I'm beginning to worry
With the war going pretty good.
Saddam captured.
The economy picking up.
and
Qadaffi bend over for Bush.

And the press trumpeting how wonderful all these things are:

I'm beginning to think that all the sheeples will flock to Bush's call.
