Attention!.... Read a book by Greg Palast called: "Armed Madhouse"... Author of "The Best Democracy Money Can Buy", Palast details how the Neo-Con Fascists manipulated the 2000 and the 2004 presidential elections; offering evidence of how Bush actually LOST the election in such pivotal states as New Mexico and Ohio, and illustrating exactly how they manipulated the results in Bush's favor. He also warns that they ARE ABOUT TO DO IT AGAIN IN 2008!!! Since virtually NO election-reform has occured to stop it, the Republican/Neo-Con "dis-enfranchisment" is now targeted at the Hispanic vote, having already stolen vast portions of the "Black-vote".. (Is it any wonder that "progress" and re-settlement of New Orleans is not occurring?)... tens of thousands of mostly-Democratic black voters are no-longer able to prove "residency", and therefore cannot vote. Is the latest "immigration-reform" another ploy to "dis-enfranchise" vast numbers of Latino voters?? We know that it is not only a "red-herring", to divert scrutiny away from incompetance and failure; It is surely a form of "pandering" to the Bush-"base"... those ultra-"conservative" right-wing fanatics whose support, and money, Bush has always required. The most frightening parallels have recently been made of the Bush strategies, compared to those of Nazi-Germany. The rise of the Nazis didn't occur "overnight". Adolph Hitler was ELECTED to power. His control of "Media" was complete. His parliament granted him absolute-power.. by passing the "Empowering-Act" (Remind anyone of the "Patriot-Act"??).... allowing Hilter to be exempt of all laws. His Secret-Police kidnapped ("rendered") anyone that dissented, to be imprisoned in unknown locations, tortured and killed. (Remind anyone of the C.I.A. "renditions"" to foreign prisons or Guantanamo?) The Nazi Germans also had vast data-bases to control and monitor dissidents, "gays", Gypsies, and Jews. These were complied from thousands of census-lists and administered by "punch-card" machines....SOLD AND OPERATED BY I.B.M.!!!!! This is why the Jews were required to be tattooed. This is why "Gays" were required to wear yellow-triangles. This is why Jews had to wear "The Star of David" on their clothes!! The Bush/ Neo-Con strategists have grabbed "absolute-power", with NO Congressional "Balance-of-Power", NO judicial "balance-of-Power", and frequently justify their crimes by saying that "If the president does it, it MUST be legal!" Today, A.B.C. News revealed that the N.S.A. wiretaps and "dragnets" were being conducted on all "Major" media reporters who ever made "over-seas" telephone calls. Under the excuse of "The Valerie Plame-leak investigation", administration spokespersons argued that they have the "right" to wire-tap and investigate reporters, without Senate-oversight, and without warrants!! It is historical fact, that George W. Bush's grandfather was prosecuted for violating the "arms-embargo" against Nazi-Germany. It is also historical fact, that George Bush (Senior), Dick Cheney, and Donald Rumsfeld were DIRECTLY responsible for the sale of the nerve-gas sold to Saddam Hussein, which killed thousands of Khurdish Iraqis. I also heard today, that U.S. aerial attacks have been made within the country of Pakistan by "R.O.V.s"... those remotely-operated-vehicles which fire missles into Pakistani villages. Let's see: ...... Invade a "sovreign-nation", install a "puppet-regime", manipulate elections, control the media, kidnap and torture "dissidents", "wire-tap" and conduct covert surveillance, establish vast data-bases for political and military control, pilfer and steal from the invaded-nation, award vast no-bid contracts to war-profiteering cronies..... Sounds a lot like Nazi-Germany??? WAKE UP!!!!! IT'S HAPPENING IN AMERICA...RIGHT NOW!!! What's that famous quote by Edmund Burke???"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing"???............BE GOOD....... DO SOMETHING!!!
