		<description>The alternative is:

&quot;We support you, but we STILL refuse to properly armour you (even when we had the chance, sorry tax breaks are more important) and we won&#039;t support you when you get back (the VA loses out to more tax breaks by the time you all come home and need help with those missing limbs).

Sorry about all the suppor that we Republicans just can&#039;t quite give to you troops out there serving in the war for oil...  I mean to get the WMD&#039;s... I mean because Saddam was responsible for Sept. 11th. . . .  I mean. . . . .  Uhhh. . . . .  Vote Republican!&quot;</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;1) Congress and the American people will continue to support and protect the members of the United States Armed Forces who are serving or who have served bravely and honorably in Iraq; and

(2) Congress disapproves of the decision of President George W. Bush announced on January 10, 2007, to deploy more than 20,000 additional United States combat troops to Iraq.&lt;/em&gt;


We support you, but we wouldn&#039;t send more troops to help you.  Our political base would scream bloody murder.  We hope you don&#039;t die, but if you do, your death won&#039;t be in vain.  It will be one more CNN tally closer to ending this unjust war and will vindicate liberal opposition to President Bush.</description>

		<description>If only there was another mid-term election this year we could oust many more republicans.

America wants that head of this president and members of the republican-America party had better give that head to them or they will have their heads as well.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;Didnâ€™t you watch them do that? The 109th almost slept through two years, because they used every process available, including overt threats on the Floor, to stop ANY Democratic effort to bring up the war.

Comment by Paul in LA â€” February 18, 2007 @ 4:41 pm&lt;/em&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;That&#039;s because they were all gettin&#039; rich off the war and signing their checks with the blood of our soldiers!!! Ph*ck ALL Repugnicans!!!&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

		<description>&quot;If his report was real, then Bush Senior would call up Junior in the White House to do it PERIOD. Since Baker has said basically nothing since its release, and Junior ignores it, therefore I believe the report was just a cover.&quot;--Jay Randal

More to the point, Gw can&#039;t be controlled by Baker any more. He&#039;s Prez, and he intends to continue writing his name in other people&#039;s BLOOD.

&quot;As for burning down my phone bills: I have sent so many fax letters to members of Congress in the past 4 years that even I am shocked at the huge stack of them.&quot;

Good for you.

&quot;I do wish the Democrats had more fire in the belly to end the Iraq Fiasco War, but hopefully we Americans will force them to end it.&quot; --Jay Randal

I don&#039;t really understand why you think &#039;fire in the belly&#039; is what it takes. We have that; we&#039;ve had that. What we have no had is control of the process, which the R party had to BRING TO A HALT, because any motion would have brought that belly-fire into play.

		<description>Hurrah for the Republican&#039;ts!!! Now we can keep feeding billions of dollars and thoudands of legs to the GE/Halliburton/Lockheed war machine!!!

Guess none of those Republican&#039;ts wanted re-elected next time around anyway....

3 Cheers for the utter and absolute disgracing of the Republican&#039;ts!!! It&#039;s going to be a fun couple of decades coming up, watching them make their crybaby sounds from their self-imposed obscurity.

Back under the rocks with the wingnuts - this time for keeps!!!!</description>

		<description>There is nothing really left to do but to keep this issue in front by affecting appropriations.

Don&#039;t want an up or down vote?   It&#039;s OK.

When it comes to budget appropriations there will be up and down votes.  Vote down funding, then they will be forced to redeploy.    The killer is that all of the alternatives (incuding diplomacy) are less costly than the current strategy.

Yes, tie the same measures of success to funding to military funding as they do to public school funding.</description>

		<description>&lt;strong&gt;Yesterday, Iraqi security forces found 50 Russian-made Sam missiles in a weapons cache near Baghdad. &lt;/strong&gt;The discovery, the largest of its kind since 2003, has confirmed suspicions that insurgents are using more sophisticated munitions.

The Pentagon has confirmed that a CH46 Sea Knight shot down 11 days ago in Al-Anbar province west of Baghdad, the heartland of the Sunni insurgency, was the victim of a Soviet-designed Sam.</description>

		<description>Will this charade never end?

-

A Proclamation for Action against the Corruption of our Great Country&#039;s most Basic Rights and Freedoms.

To paraphrase America&#039;s Founding Fathers:

&quot;The price of freedom is eternal vigilance&quot;

&quot;Give me Liberty or give me Death&quot;

To paraphrase the Constitution:

&quot;If the Government no longer supports the views and wills of it&#039;s People...then the People should Abolish the existing Government and Start afresh...so that the Government OF THE PEOPLE, BY THE PEOPLE AND FOR THE PEOPLE SHALL NOT PERISH FROM THE FACE OF THIS EARTH&quot;

To paraphrase the &quot;Wizard of OZ&quot;:

&quot;Uh-oh, Toto...We&#039;re not in Kansas anymore!&quot;

WE, The People, have FAILED in our duty to preserve what MILLIONS of our Brothers, Fathers and Forefathers died to protect: a true DEMOCRACRATIC Nation of the People (not the Fascist ELITE) devoted to the &quot;In-Alienable&quot; Rights of Freedom, Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.

Instead, WE, The People of America, have allowed - and by lack of action, even sanctioned - the Wholesale Dismemberment of our supposedly Beloved system of Government by a small but EXTREMELY POWERFUL bunch of Pedophilic, Drug-dealing, Money-and-Power Worshipping, Alcohol/Drug/Power Addicted, Homosexual, Fear-Mongering, Sadistic MURDERERS (re: Bohemian Grove, Monte Rio, CA), whose idea of a good time (when they&#039;re not making fortunes off the sale of both &quot;legal&quot; (re: Lilly Pharmaceuticals, et al.)and &quot;ill-legal&quot; drugs and arms (re: CIA/NSA Black Ops Funding, Iran/Contra); raping the natural resources of OUR planet (re: ExxonMobile, BP, et al.); slaying innocent civilians both at home and abroad (re: 9/11 and just about every military action we&#039;ve made in the past 40+ years); enslaving the world through Media- and Economic-based social manipulation (re: &quot;Silent Weapons for Quiet Wars&quot;); and sending OUR Mothers, Fathers, Brothers, Sisters, Sons, Daughters, Friends and Neighbors off to die in some ill-conceived &quot;war&quot; on an IDEA called &quot;Terrorism&quot; - how do you kill an IDEA???) is to Abduct, Drug, Torture innocent young men and women, then strip them naked (both literally and psychologically), set them loose in a secured, reprisal-free environment they control (re: Mt. Shasta Military Reservation) and indulge themselves in hunting them down with dogs and guns, then murdering them in something they refer to as &quot;The Greatest Game on Earth&quot;, the ultimate &quot;extreme sport&quot; (Never heard of it? Try Google searching for it. Or, just ask the VP...it&#039;s supposedly one of his favorites!)

To paraphrase another:

&quot;The ONLY thing we have to FEAR is FEAR ITSELF&quot;

We&#039;ve all heard it, how many of YOU understand what that REALLY MEANS?

Do YOU?

So I put it to you rather bluntly:
Are you a MAN, and willing to do a MAN&#039;S JOB of fighting (through words and actions) against these charlatans for your (until the Patriot Act) Constitutionally guaranteed Rights and Freedoms (like our fathers did before us?), or:

Are you &quot;Sheeple&quot;, willing to let the most noble Dreams and Aspirations of so many who died for your comfortable lives be usurped by these reprehensibly evil beings?

By visiting this website, you have already taken the first step.  Are you MAN enough to go further, and accept the responsibility of guarding and preserving those precious Ideals of Freedom, Life, Liberty, Equality and the Pursuit of Happiness we so often pay only lip-service to?

ARE YOU A MAN?

The future depends on US, and our actions made TODAY. Don&#039;t let the future pay for the mistakes WE CAN CORRECT NOW!

&quot;A People should not fear its Government; A Government should fear its People&quot;

&quot;For you shall know the TRUTH, and the TRUTH shall set you free&quot;

&quot;Don&#039;t get mad, get even!&quot;

&quot;Know your ENEMY as you know YOURSELF&quot;

&quot;We are all one consciousness observing itself subjectively; There is no Death: Life is just an Illusion and we are the Imagination of Ourselves&quot;

&quot;It&#039;s not a war on drugs; it&#039;s a war on personal freedom&quot;

I LOVE AMERICA, and I&#039;m DOING SOMETHING ABOUT IT by writing this Proclamation to encourage anyone and everyone who still cares to take action and sow the seeds of discontent. My only goal is to help make you think deeply on just what is at stake here, and what we can do about rescuing ourselves from this revolting situation we have allowed ourselves to develop.

Our Founding Fathers are rolling in their graves...and we SHOULD be ashamed.

Please copy this post and send it to as many others as you feel may be willing to help us help ourselves in restoring OUR beloved country to its former glory as a beacon of Freedom and Justice in our world.  Only through our collective efforts will any positive changes be made.

WE MUST NOT FAIL AGAIN!

Please, make it stop</description>
