2. Were Nixon alive today . . .
He'd be green-assed jealous of the rubber-stamp "media" Bewsh has.

America's corporate owners learned their lessons from the Sixties in more ways than one . . .

6. Take Heart...here come da Dems....our Dems...we have STAYING POWER...the GOP thought they had it
But NO...as current events unfold....much evidence emerges that the GOP built their power on BS and Deception...and money of course....

Social Engineering began when several things came into the picture...

1. Pat Robertson created a plan to infuse into our Society Christians in order to slowly gain Political Power...took several decades but very effective...

2. Money took over our media and the Truth fell from the front pages...it was mostly down hill after the Fairness Doctrine was cabbaged.

3. The Mil Ind Complex and others(Haliburton etc), joined up with the NeoCons(Pol Force), and the Religious Force to become very powerful...included were the traditional Pubs,,,,

Reaping the ultimate power in 2000....they went drunk with Power...their Staying Power began to drain away...slowly at first and now reaching a cresacendo....

Take Heart Tom...the end of their time is near...they had the op but blew it....

10. I so hope you are right...and I counsel myself patience every day
But even scratching the surface has revealed pervasive Sovietization of the Executive Branch. Driving out the capable class and putting in Loyal Bushies...

5. "Follow the money", during Watergate and now...
"It's all part of a growing ongoing investigation into corruption in defense and intelligence contracts, which already has sent former Rep. Randy “Duke” Cunningham to prison and, legal sources say, may threaten others in Congress and the CIA. "

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/12634250 /

Bush fired Lam in order to obstruct justice and stop her investigation(s)

and during Watergate the moneytrail was never followed back to its origin. The Mexican bank and its mysterious 'Chilean investors' were merely a footnote in All The President's Men. The CIA connection to Watergate was the money Nixon sent down to destabilize Allende, with a skim coming back to fund Nixon's CREEP. It could even be a portion of the CIA's drug money that comes 'off the record' via The Golden Triangle, which Nixon himself had explode with the buy-down of the Turkish heroin crop.

Nowadays the suppression of the Octopus, vainly reported by Danny Casolaro and Gary Webb, has become SO huge it can't be ignored any longer. Democracy is now at stake. It isn't a small time covert ops program anymore but the core of the corrupt system.

bring home the comparison.
