2. Actually, Stealing Elections would be a correct way of putting it.
Don't you think?

3. I'd say: Turning Americans into the kind of monsters that would support them.

4. That's a great question to ask your Republican friends and coworkers.
Watch their faces slowly turn beet red.

I bet a few would say "Impeaching Clinton".

6. I do ask and get frustrated when they can't seem to answer.
Mind-boggling.

8. I'd say "destroying the Democartic party"
Which would also fall under the "All of the Above" option on your poll. But they wouldn't have been able to accomplish any of those things (which I readily agree they have or are well on their way to doing) if they hadn't first beaten, battered, bruised and generally turned the majority of elected Democrats into equallly corporate, appeasing, cowards who either allowed or helped them get away with "All of the Above".

10. All of the above and another:
Destroying the military. Besides a huge surplus, George W. Bush inherited the strongest military might of any nation in the history of the planet, including that of the Roman Empire. Between his mishandling of the war on terror, and, in particular, because of his committing Americans to totally unnecessary imperial war in Iraq justified by fantasies concocted in the Office of Special Plans and the Office of the Vice Premier, I mean Vice President, that military was stretched beyond its capacity to defend either our freedom (which he also tried to destroy, but that's another matter) or ExxonMoble's profit sources.
