68. What if no one showed up for war? Well we can't do that...BUT
We can refuse to show up to vote. Not give one person to a rally... where would they campaign? Not one dime to their campaign... NOTHING. Not to ONE of them.

Let THEM choose TWO people to run a race for the primaries and BOTH HAVE TO BE FOR IMPEACHMENT AND NO MORE WAR.

Then we will pick one to stand behind, and then vote.

We are so divided.. how many resolutions are for opposition to a surge that is ALREADY A DONE DEAL? We watch them listen to their own voices in the house debating what is moot. They aren't debating what they MIGHT be able to do something in time for, which is Iran... they are NOT representing us... why do WE continue this madness of red-tape bullshit?

Drastic times call for drastic measures.

Maybe and probably there are so many holes in my ideas... but short of giving a reason to call Martial Law, or fighting with each other, what else can we do?

I like the idea of all of us Millions of us circling Iran..as human body shields.....

but I would suppose, we'd lose less life, by refusing to play the political game, by changing the rules, in a lawful and SMARTER way.


What if they tried to run an election WITHOUT the American people?
