1. I wish they would just jump into a ravine and leave the rest of us alone.

2. I think they are imploding....
Edited on Sat Apr-09-05 01:57 AM by Jade Fox
though I have a history of being too optimistic about these things.

The Radical Right truely believes they have achieved power in this country
rather than stealing it. They truely believe they represent the majority.
No on both counts. They will not last. They only questions are how
much damage will they do, and when will a politician rise up who can tap
into the huge amount of disgust and frustration they are creating in
America.

3. I would disagree with Jade Fox on one point.

I believe they KNOW full well that they STOLE the power they now have.

Unfortunately, they are deluded enough to believe that the game is over, and that their 'power' is theirs forever. That's always a problem with simplistic, either/or types of thinking.

But no, I agree that they will not last. They have been given enough rope to HANG themselves, and the backlash they have coming will be severe.

5. It is hard to fight people who know they are right but----
Things always change and it will swing back. Yar they will go to far and it may be to late for the US any how. We do not seem to have a leader that wants to point out we need to change and not go back wards but a head. I think this is now a movement to go back to some age in the minds of people that was never there. Ex. this marriage thing. As if people have been true to their vows through out history. Who is kidding who here?Nothing like a sinner to keep us in the true path?

edit: and if I'm wrong, we are all in deep trouble and I need someone to come down to Alabama and hold me.
