Help create a list of things THAT HAVE ALREADY HAPPENED
Recently on DU I remember seeing a couple of threads on things that have transpired in our lives that warrant our attention. One of the threads was about Chumpy's record - a list of things he's done in office. Another was a list of grievances, like 95 of them or something like that. I also remember the Plaid Atter's "I accuse" post from the blog.

I am hoping that someone can hook us up with those links and also that people here will help create a list of things you have already seen happen that concern you.

Thanks in advance for helping to create a list that will be a helpful resource to counter those who say, "what if it never happens." In other words, it's already happening in these ways...

1. In other words, we're frogs in the water...
...and we need to be paying attention to, and keeping track of, all of these subtle incremental increases in the water temperature.

2. to the 'what if' crowd, I would say..........
........and what if it does happen? I mean, if it does happen, it may be too late to change anything. That would be a pretty big risk to wait and see and then not be able to change things back.
