Don Bemont: "What is the solution they would like to see?" Putting the 'personal' asumptions aside, let me give you a solution. STOP VOTING FOR INCUMBENTS AND REPUBLICRATS !!
What made me shake my head and smile at them (democrats) was when they trumpeted it as a bi-partisan breakthrough when passed. Then, when they realized they were hoodwinked by incumbents, they said it was not the Democrats fault (the late Mr. Feingold) but the Republicans and he was used. They just live in denial of the fact that neither Party cares a whit for them at all, and it amuses me when they get once again ill-used and rationalize it as, "THEY (insert Rep. or Dem here) did it.
Now, both groups are objecting on the grass-roots level, while the private sites and orgs. are cornering the market on dissent in this Country, just in time for re-electing the Republican Congress and Presidency. My concentration, from the day I saw this, was on sites such as this one, and how they will survive the law. I see an interesting plan afoot concerning sites such as this come fall, and am following it.
You may ask WiseFawn about it, as I've been awaiting this story manifesting all year, readying myself for this day when opinion will be outlawed in many forums. It is just like I said back when I was just a "conspiracy whacko", it has come to pass just as I said it would - once again. Forgive me but, "HOW YOU LIKE ME NOW ?"Oh, how I love it when it all comes out in the rinse.
P.S. - I tell people that on my gravestone they'll put the words, "Here lies the one who said: Cree, Cree, Cree..."
