Democrats put up a hell of a fight, but feel they are responsible for America becoming a theocracy instead of remaining a democracy. They are right. Republicans win because they own the media, ignore the rules and unite. Democrats get power and go in every direction. This isn't a war of mere politics and religion, but whether we have a future on earth. Democrats failed by not supporting a great candidate in 2000 and letting D.C. insiders choose the candidate 2004. Then there was the Nader psychotic denial that he didn't do it twice. We all did it twice, and the illegitimately-elected Governor Schwarzenegger will be there in 2008 to pick up the pieces. Democrats whine, "They can't do that!" They will do what they damn well please. A plane going down, a building blown-up, a country invaded, an election stolen, or the earth plundered to toxicity, it will happen. Get the concept liberals. We judge others by our own morality at our peril; leave judging to them. Half the world will fear-vote for war in the name of Jesus, Mohammed or Moses. That's not going to change, so we have to change. And if our leaders like Howard Dean can't rise to the top naturally - what's the point? Lefties said Bush would blow it so badly the country would swing liberal, as they sanctimoniously didn't vote Democrat. They don't get that it's already an Orwellian world of advertising as language and a virtual reality product-placing presidency of "Don't confuse the visual with facts." Liberals voted, but forgot that it's also about voting machines, and we let them do it again, like any third-world country looking up the barrel of a gun on Election Day! Amazingly, the torture and bombing of innocent people, mutilating our sons, the coming depression, the end of civil liberties, the no-tax rich, mean nothing. Politics and murder are about definitions of "morality," now. It's the Inquisition vs. Enlightenment again. What is most frightening and pre-Third Reich is the migration of our intelligentsia from politics at all. Bush taking the oath is the death of America's political system. Its progress vs. regress, inclusion vs. exclusion, freedom vs. fundamentalism, sharing vs. taking, choice vs. no-voice, educated vs. absolutes, now. Most liberals blew the '60s on pot, the '70s on hot tubs, the '80s on finding themselves, and the '90s on allowing the greatest political mind since Jefferson to be taken down by the stabbings of pernicious inferior men, then we abandoned Clinton's heir apparent - an environmentalist! The fundamentalist's job is to make their religion everyone's religion; ours is to ensure choice and advance through just law. Our test is to be the first generation in history to stop seeing others as the enemy. We can do it! Soon everyone will have a brown grandchild, a gay relative, have helped with a necessary abortion, and participated in the painless humane death of an elderly when they choose, rather than the agony of the billion-dollar AMA American way of death. We'll sit in front of tanks and bulldozers as half of the U.S. that wants to share with the world. We have the Will of Life at our backs and it is more than enough of the favor of the God's to keep us going. "He who controls words controls the world." But he who controls water controls everyone. Wake up from the miasma of plenty of nothing liberals and moderates, no one will unite, enlight, and teach us to fight, more than our imbecile Christian mullah himself.
