It seems like at times that the fight just is not worth it anymore. But as soon as you let up, they will take advantage of it and the next thing you know it is a total dictatorship we live under; I am not interested in a Theocracy either: Are you?

It might be a good plan to email or call you Reps EVERY DAY, reminding them that 'WE THE PEOPLE' are not interested in Empirealism and Illegal Occupations/Wars on other countries. This Warmongering that is sponsered by the very thing Eisenhower warned us about; which is the "Military Industrial Complex", and our corrupted Government needs stopped. This Warmongering is never going to end as long as the MIC is allowed to continue these atrocities, and with the Government supporting there agenda, it does not help matters what so ever.

If you really do not want our Government to invade Iran, I suggest you email and call your Reps EVERYDAY and tell them that. NO MORE WARMONGERING!

The Zealots who are pushing for the illegal attack/invasion upon Iran need exposed for the warmongering hacks they are. I do not give a fuck who is the core supporting figures of FREEDOM WATCH, they are not interested in doing what is best for this country, they are only interested in what is best for them and they do not give two fucking shits what happens to anyone, just as long as their pockets get fatter.

Why in the hell would we allow a very small group of truely evil doers drag us down and destroy what dignity is left of this country? Groups that beat war drums are just as bad as any terrorist out there and those war drumming groups, like FREEDON WATCH, are right in our own backyard.

So, are you going to email or call your Reps EVERY SINGLE DAY until they comply with what the real American people want? or are you going to allow the Cons to destroy every last inch of the globe and rape this country of every ounce of dignity thats left? The Government works for us, not the other way around; WE control the Government because WE hired them and we can fire them.

1. never take a knife to a gun fight
When authoritarian Republicans push, go for the choke hold.

They are the enemies of freedom. They are anti-American and un-American.

I didn't always feel like this; my reaction is learned in the last ten years. They've taught me this.

2. We have to run a rapid responce and get talking points out.......
the GOP uses Fox News, rush, and the rest of the ilk as their rapid responce team. Their team using code words gets the daily talking points out. If you don't believe me try talking to the other side, its almost as if they have been programmed. Humm........the Washington Times is owned by Moonies and they programed kid, adults and any one else to get them into the cult of Moon. Don't give the bastards one inch but take two from them.

3. unfortunately, we are forty years behind them
They started building their echo chamber and think tanks and Mighty Wurlitzer with Richard Mellon Scaife's money decades ago. They've intended to bury us, and they've demonstrated time and time again that they have no fear of or love for the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and even democracy itself. Nor do they heed the Rule of Law. Their golden rule is this: Seize what you can, assassinate those who resist.

I don't believe there have been more ghoulish people in the history of the world -- simply because they have murdered the Great Experiment of Democracy. And there is no such thing as a moderate Republican. They are either on the side of liberty or the side of tyranny. Hear that, Gordon Smith??

4. It's the only way to deal with a bully
and it's amazing how easily the toughies can back down when shown some real resistance.

Recall the ONE time the Dems stood united on an issue: their opposition to Bush's plans to privatize Social Security.

Recall how the Republicanites quietly dropped the idea.
