Juan, facts don't matter. Emotional/political appeal matters to "these people." (Never thought I'd see the day when I'd classify any group as "these people). It's worse than I expected and I don't see it improving anytime soon.
If the ppl making these decisions in the dark want to destroy the internet so the patriots who want to maintain our way to life will fail in their mission, then it will be easier to take over the entire country , one city/state/geographic area after another. They will just use the military machine to do it. This will turn the nation into a pseudo-christian kingdom, with the Koch, Waltons, et al sharing it out among themselves and their fellow co-conspirators. Or do I read too much history and not have a clear grasp of the magnificence of this plan?Please show me where I am mistaken. I beg you.
The greatness of the WWII generation tossed in the rubbish bin b/c US govt acts more like Germany did in the 30s/40--and less like the great power it was then. Such a shame.
Have never understood why celebration of a rebellion and army from southern states should be permitted. Are these people Americans or are they not? Would Germany/Japan allow memorials to the people who set the world on fire and lost? Why are people allowed to put their rebellion above the country they tried to destroy?
Too bad no one whose writing I read ever mentions the Dominionists, who now run the nation. Professor Jeff Sharlet has two good books on this national disgrace and the cause of a near-total RW hold on the elected offices of this country. Read The Family and C Street and know that Brooks is accomplice in their takeover of our now-dangerous wreckage of a RW government. Sadly, there seems to be a blackout of mention of these books and their well-researched facts.
Wait one, we can now have grandparent(s) who birthed the parents with someone else's eggs/sperm. (Or both). And then there's the "biological" mom and the surrogate mom. And the joining of the eggs and parts from various parents to avoid inherited disease...... You can figure this out from here. No telling how many grandparents a kid might have these days in the struggle to defeat biology and have kids nature didn't intend (b/c of relevant biological quirks, including sterility and unworkable female plumbing). Then there's the ability to defeat nature and provide kids to any and all who have the cash and/or connections to make them happen. There's no telling how we could even count some grandparent numbers w/o a doctorate in science, and still maybe not. "Pure" "white"= pipe dream (as in an opium den dream).
A "big part", Rosemerry? I think not. This is not about Iraq, it's about the devotion to one's country.
Besides, anyone who refused to vote for making war on Iraq had to wonder "What if I'm wrong and there is something there?" Or, "What if I'm wrong and end up a pariah for not voting for war, even though my instincts say I'm right that there is no there there? "
Mrs. Clinton's was one vote among many. In our house we could read the true message of Colin Powell, that he was making things up, that there was no there there. But what if...?
I prefer to give Mrs. Clinton the benefit of the doubt and not question the motives or emotions of the Kahns. That their son died for "nothing there" is even more tragic than ever, IMO.
What I'd like to know is how Trump doesn't get visited by the FBI, etc.. Any other person having rallies and ranting rebellion as he does would be put under the microscope and then shut down. What does he have on whom?
floridians get what they deserve when they vote for the people they do. no sympathy from here. the smart ones will move to higher ground...the rest......ho-hum.....

Hope they televise his meeting with an empty room. It will do my heart good to see them stand up to this Dominionist.
Stuck on stupid and stuck on $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.

These guys took their lessons from North Carolina. Never thought I'd be ashamed of my country. Nor the state--NC-- I live in.

Sounds as if when things get really dicey under Trumpster, there are govt forces ready and willing to handle him.....
It's kind of re-assuring.......
No problem there. See post above.
