So true. But now we need to look towards the future. How do we fix
what
Bush broke?

Impeach, indict, and imprison the entire BushCo junta.

Can we fix it?

Yes: that you are even asking this rhetorical question proves to me
that
there IS hope for a

Care to elaborate? Your comment, like a Shrub Rose Garden speech, makes
no
sense.

I think we know something you don't care to admit.....

There is no failure when We, the People, gather together to defend the
Constitution.

Drive the Shrubco regime out!

YOUR GOVERNMENT, on the basis of outrageous lies, is waging a
murderous and utterly illegitimate war in Iraq, with other countries in
their sights.

YOUR GOVERNMENT is openly torturing people, and justifying it.

YOUR GOVERNMENT puts people in jail on the merest suspicion,
refusing
them lawyers, and either holding them indefinitely or deporting them in
the
dead of night.

YOUR GOVERNMENT is moving each day closer to a theocracy, where a
narrow and hateful brand of Christian fundamentalism will rule.

YOUR GOVERNMENT suppresses the science that doesn't fit its
religious,
political and economic agenda, forcing present and future generations to
pay
a terrible price.

YOUR GOVERNMENT is moving to deny women here, and all over the
world,
the right to birth control and abortion.

YOUR GOVERNMENT enforces a culture of greed, bigotry, intolerance
and
ignorance.

People look at all this and think of Hitler - and they are right to
do
so. The Bush regime is setting out to radically remake society very
quickly,
in a fascist way, and for generations to come.

We must act now; the future is in the balance.

Millions and millions are deeply disturbed and outraged by this.
They
recognize the need for a vehicle to express this outrage, yet they cannot
find it; politics as usual cannot meet the enormity of the challenge, and
people sense this. There is not going to be some magical "pendulum
swing."
People who steal elections and believe they're on a "mission from God"
will
not go without a fight. There is not going to be some savior from the
Democratic Party. This whole idea of putting our hopes and energies into
"leaders" who tell us to seek common ground with fascists and religious
fanatics is proving every day to be a disaster, and actually serves to
demobilize people.

But silence and paralysis are NOT acceptable. That which you will
not
resist and mobilize to stop, you will learn - or be forced - to accept.
There is no escaping it: the whole disastrous course of this Bush regime
must be STOPPED. And we must take the responsibility to do it. And there
is
a way. We are talking about something on a scale that can really make a
huge
change in this country and in the world. We need more than fighting
Bush's
outrages one at a time, constantly losing ground to the whole onslaught.
We
must, and can, aim to create a political situation where the Bush
regime's
program is repudiated, where Bush himself is driven from office, and
where
the whole direction he has been taking society is reversed. We, in our
millions, must and can take responsibility to change the course of
history.
Acting in this way, we join with and give support and heart to people all
over the globe who so urgently need and want this regime to be stopped.

This will not be easy. If we speak the truth, they will try to
silence
us. If we act, they will try to stop us. But we speak for the majority,
here
and around the world, and as we get this going we are going to reach out
to
the people who have been so badly fooled by Bush and we are NOT going to
stop. The point is this: history is full of examples where people who had
right on their side fought against tremendous odds and were victorious.
And
it is also full of examples of people passively hoping to wait it out,
only
to get swallowed up by a horror beyond what they ever imagined.

The future is unwritten. WHICH ONE WE GET IS UP TO US.
