Posted At GD.. But Posting Here Too!! THIS IS SCARY!!! We
MUST stop this INSANITY!! If you can catch the program later today, WATCH IT, if not... go to www.democracynow.org and check out these two articles!!

I just said to my daughter last night that I have FINALLY figured out to some extent how Hitler became what he was! That was BEFORE I watched the show today!! HOW we stop this I don't know, but stop it WE MUST!! I am of no real religious affiliation and have NO agenda here, but Christians United For Israel is just ONE MORE JUMP for the Wing-Nuts and I have to admit scares me to death!

In the talk with John Dean, Amy asks if Fascism is here and he said not yet, but it's close. And he said it will be coming with a SMILE. He began research on this book a long time ago with Goldwater and decided to return to it because he feels it's essential that THIS MESSAGE gets out to Americans!

I'm in a PANIC, I really am! We've got to do something and it has to be NOW!!!

below are just the lead-ins!

Christians United for Israel: New Christian Zionism Lobby Hopes to Rival AIPAC

We take a look at a new recently established group called Christians United for Israel - an evangelical organization that believes supporting expansionist policies of the Israeli government is: "a biblical imperative." We speak with investigative journalist Max Blumenthal who reports they lobbied the Bush administration to adopt a confrontational posture toward Iran, refuse aid to the Palestinians and give Israel a free hand in its attack on Lebanon.



Fmr. White House Counsel John Dean on Conservatives Without Conscience

We speak with former Nixon White House counsel John Dean about his new book, "Conservatives Without Conscience." In it, he warns that many of today's Republican and conservative leaders are: "conservatives without conscience who are capable of plunging this nation into disasters the likes of which we have never known."

1. Sorry If This Is Something That Has Been Covered... But I NEVER
saw it or even heard about it. I feel it's extremely important that as many people as possible read about this.

2. This fear has been boiling in the back of many of our minds.

Truthout had some John Dean stories in it about this general idea - how authoritarianism is on the rise. He has indeed been studying this since Goldwater.

This link isn't EXACTLY what I was looking for, but it's close enough...

You're not panicking or going over the top, you're merely realizing something that's true, that's ominous, and that's quite reasonable to be concerned about. And you're correct about something else, too - this has to get out, as WIDELY AS POSSIBLE. You're not being a Chicken Little, by any means.

Remember two things:
1) Knowledge IS power.
2) kkkarl rove once said too much education isn't necessarily a good thing.

Besides, people have been kicking my thread here, so I felt like kicking yours! :D
