So this is how democracy dies

On this, we totally agree.

The only people who can rein in Bush and get him under control would be Congress, and the only people who can persuade Congress would be We The People.

There are two options, in my opinion, and I'm easy either way:

One is the democratic removal of all incumbents through the election process. Simple: don't re-elect anyone. It's a clear cut message.

The second is...and I'd like to remind anyone reading this (especially you law enforcement types) that it's perfectly within my First Amendment rights to discuss this...I just can't advocate it or conspire to do it: the elimination of 1/2 of Congress through quick and decisive measures in order to put the fear of God into the other half.

It's actually doable, if you think about it. 535 members of Congress. Let's say 300 even just to be thorough. Five-man squads for each of about 300 Congressmen...that's 1500 people. Think there aren't 1500 men or women in the US willing to do the job? Think again. Home security for congress is a joke.

Again, I'm good with either course.

Either course works for me as well.:y_yes:
