What we're seeing are baby steps towards a fascist, fear-mongering

as you know, steven, i don't often engage in political posting around
here, but i hope i can be forgiven for offering this opinion, in response to
your concern, stated above: i think you are right about the takeover
attempt, but i think it has already passed beyond the "baby steps" stage,
and is in the process of being soundly rejected, as will be evidenced by the
results of the next couple congressional/governors/senatorial/presidential
elections.
i get this deja vu which puts me in mind of the gut feelings i had in
'76. and for you wiseasses, that's 1976, not 1876.
this country has an amazing ability to find a balance; a communal
insight that emits a sense of divine intervention.
"But you must remember, my fellow-citizens, that eternal vigilance by
the people is the price of liberty, and that you must pay the price if
you wish to secure the blessing. It behooves you, therefore, to be
watchful in your States as well as in the Federal Government." -- Andrew
Jackson, Farewell Address, March 4, 1837
Don't let these corrupt, cynical, political money whores take away our
freedoms.

pat robertson to hold an elected office)
IMO, if there's a god he's one nasty SOB.
