Seriously people, we need to get to the point where.....
SECDEF says Mr. President, I'm sorry but I and the Joint Chiefs can no longer take direction from you because we think that you have a serious condition that requires medical treatment... (must apply to VP as well).

I might be holding my breath on this, but it has got to come IMO.

2. That would be a military coup. The power to make that judgement lies with the cabinet

9. I'm sorry but I don't believe that for one minute.... Do you seriously think that they are...
going to leave the White House in Jan 09? If your answer is yes, then you are delusional my friend... They can't afford to have someone uncover what they have been up to for the past 7 years... Leaving ain't happening!

11. Adjust your tinfoil. They ARE leaving. The HAVE to leave
The Congress (and even the military) would not stand for a president and vice-president not stepping aside. That's never happened in history. But I am delusional?

12. I tell ya what, wouldn't hold my breath for there departure....
The reason that I believe that they will stay on is; They will make something happen between now and next Nov. that will nullify the election, or they will start a war with someone that will justify an emergency rule and thus allow a Dictatorship or Fascistic Govt.

13. And if you think the past seven years have been anything at all different from the
hundred forty that preceded it, you are extremely naive. Bush is nothing new; he's just particularly inelegant and extremely audacious.

6. If The American People Truly Can't See These People For What
they are, this country is sinking faster than I EVER imagined! To think that there are those out there who still beat the drum for all the INSANE crap that we've been fed is PREPOSTEROUS!

WHAT IS EVEN MORE frightening is that we have Congressmen/women and Senators who STILL won't do one damn thing to stop these MANIACS! I'm no longer sure WHO needs more medical attention, but I AM sure that The Idiot and Darth are evil and DANGEROUS!!!

It's time people, it's way past time! The REVOLUTION must begin or this country will become an even greater laughing stock than we are now! How did we get here??

I realize many many here think that taking to the streets is not affective, and it may not be but do tell what HAS been affective yet??? We are going to have to be the STORM TROOPERS or saying that you're an American will have people of other countries looking at you like you just flew in from the MOON!! And IF Revolution isn't the answer, than I'm OPEN and READY to do what it takes to end this MISERY!!

These people listen to NOTHING and then come out and LIE like DOGS when confronted, and trying to reach them by petitions or writing or calling just AIN'T getting it!

This is WAAAAAAY past SERIOUS screw-up!!!
