8. We've seen several apparent conspiracies of silence among our Democratic

leadership. One of the most puzzling has been their MIND-BOGGLING silence about the takeover of our election system by Bushite electronic voting corporation (Diebold, ES&S)--during the 2002-2004 period--using TRADE SECRET, PROPRIETARY programming code to "count" all votes, with virtually no audit/recount controls--a coup that was engineered by the two biggest crooks in the Anthrax Congress, Tom Delay and Bob Ney. An "Iron Curtain" was placed over this and the 2004 election fraud evidence not just by the war profiteering corporate news monopolies, but also by our Democratic Party leadership. The subject was taboo in Democratic circles--and even on leftist blogs that wanted the blessing of the Dem establishment--until very recently (throughout the pre-election and post-election periods during which something could have been done about it), and even now it is hardly having the discussion (and action!) that it deserves.

Now this, what appears to be another conspiracy of silence to prevent debate on the Bush junta plans, going back years (way before 9/11), to invade and dominate all Mideast oil fields--a region-wide occupation of the Middle East that will involve mass murder on a scale even greater than we have seen in Iraq, and indefinite warfare--as well as the threat of WW III and the end of all life on earth. (Read Carl Sagan's "The Cold and the Dark" about the impacts on our planet's atmosphere of even a limited nuclear exchange.) The parties with a vital interest in the Middle East situation with nuclear weapons are Pakistan (on Iran's border), Israel, China, Russia and the U.S. EU countries and India could also be threatened by a wider war.

And I am wondering now if these two Democratic Party silences are related. We also saw silence and collusion by many Dems on the invasion of Iraq. Can it be that the Democratic Party threw the 2004 election in order to let the Bush junta do this war? It is a shocking and sickening question--because of it makes a lot of sense. It also erodes hope for restoration of our democracy--so much so that I hesitate to formulate it. But in the interest of truth and reality--so badly needed to devise an effective strategy--I feel I must.
