This Congress is totally absurd
Its not just that Bush is out of control, but NOBODY is stopping him.

1. Yep. Full of enablers and scaredy-cats.
Those who support anything Bush wants, and those who are too afraid to take a stand for fear of being called unpatriotic.

2. Conyers and a few others are trying
But let's face it, the Dems are the minority party and therefore, don't have a lot of power. Which is why we all need to work our asses off the next two months and get Democrats elected.

4. Some are, some aren't
You know the ones who aren't, they're on all the talking-heads shows. The ones that are screaming against this crap are confined to C-span.

5. Of course it's absurd, Totalitarianism often is post-ironic
The endless lies, the drudgery of knowing you aren't truly free, living with corruption and knowing it will one day be finished feasting on the Ruling Class and get down to the serious business of "putting the little people in line".
