The Left: We MUST Take To The Streets...
...A day or so back, I suggested that there might be a genuine effort to challenge the results of the election - no matter what they are - by litigation or 'popular force". Man, I HATE being right sometimes. Severely EFL; the money quotes are below - Mike Here are some questions: Are these guys simply narcissistic idiots Rove-ing around in some never-never land bubble or do they know something we dont? Have they planned a grab bag nose punch of an October/November surprise? Or have Diebold, ES&S, and local state secretaries assured them that they will do whatever it takes to get a Republican Congress elected again? Or are they just planning to outspend us? Karl Rove recently told the Washington Times, For most Americans, particularly the marginal voters who are going to determine the outcome of the election, it started a couple of weeks ago Between now and the election we will spend $100 million in target House and Senate races in the next 21 days. That is $30 million a week in 15 or 16 key races. Knowing this group, the answers must lie in a clever blitzkrieg [Note: Clever insertion of a Nazi reference, eh? It never fails. ST] combo of all of the above. When I asked Gore Vidal at dinner why the White House seemed so serene and at ease about the vote, he replied that, this time around, the Bush-Cheney henchmen could simply call on martial law. He glumly noted that we are so far down the road toward totalitarianism that, even if Democrats do win back the Congress, it would take at least two generations before the last six years of damage to the nation could be reversed. Gore frankly despaired that any amount of time could ever return the country to where and what it previously was. This prediction left me reaching for some Fernet Branca. This isn't just gloom-and-doom amongst the glitterati any more. This conversation, especially given that it's with a man who is plugged into the liberal stratosphere, tells me that they KNOW the real numbers, that they KNOW they won't take Congress back, and they no longer intend to play by anything even remotely resembling the Constitution. We must be saved from ourselves, and if they must burn down the house to save it, so be it. May God help us all. Mike Posted by: Mike Kozlowski 2006-10-23 |
