How much is too much? Bush and Ashcroft are firm believers in literal Armageddon, and do not see it as something to avoid. Between the crass betrayal of the Constitution embodied in the USA PATRIOT Act, Ashcroft's Orwellian implementations of the same, and the unilateral sabre rattling being done by the Bushie hawks, we are well on our way to an identical stance to that of 1930's Germany.

I say it is time to take stock of the weapons for freedom at our disposal. I don't mean simply guns and ammo, but knowledge of how to hamstring a tyrannical government, how to disappear from the pervasive scrutiny of idiots and syncophants to tyrants, how to protect your privacy, how to promote the ideals of our Constitutional Republic when the government is abandoning them.
Don't get caught with your pants down. If Bush "suspends" any elections (especially 2004) on some pretext of "emergency", we will need to be ready to reclaim our nation.

The fascist frog boiling has already started, and exceeded lukewarm.

LJ Glitch, I think...
Now the Bushie Bureaucrats, unable to get Bush's Faith Based giveaway to the Religious Reich through Congress, are doing an end run around congressional oversight. With a few quiet "administrative" changes to their funding rules (that become defacto law sans congressional input), they now fund programs soaked with religious content, requirements, and religious bias in hiring and service criteria. See Bush Admin. Rewriting Charity Rules.

America is being transformed into a theocracy inch by inch, the wall between church and state being whittled away at both the local and federal level. Fundies are targeting local elections, especially school boards, social service and legal oversight positions.

This is more frog boiling. Be aware of the theocrats and their efforts.
