The Neo-cons are the new con artists; fascists in conservative clothing
Conservativism is no longer a viable philosophy. True classic conservatism means respect for our history and our institutions - it does not seek their destruction.

A Neo-conservative is an oxymoron; there is no such thing. They are fascists, otherwise they would just call themselves Conservatives, but since they don't believe in conservative values, they give themselves a palatable name -neo cons. It's just to fool us. We know them for what they really are - fascists.

They would steal our elections, start wars for profits, lie to us every day without shame; disenfranchise us; bring us back to feudalism.

Face it. Don't avoid it. Redefine the debate. We are Americans vs. the Neo-Con Fascists now..

1. Agreed. So don't expect them to....
....fight fair.......or even 'dirty' in the accepted sense.

This is a whole new ball game with them making up the rules as they see fit. Don't expect the usual......expect the unexpected.

But it's not too late to start fighting back.......get those Emergency Powers limited...NOW!

2. Fight Tooth and Nail
so to speak. Take them on point by point, rationally. Expose their lies or aka "that was the information we had at time" deceit.

3. i am in agreement with you, but they are worse, they are Machiavellians
check out 'the New American Century" actually Project for a New American Century, spiffy web site, click on bubbles in a world map. this is a pack of Fascists...basically what did finally trickle down from the Reagan policy. Gary Schmitt was a Reagan appointee as executive director of the Presidents Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board 84/88. he has been involved with the Brookings Institute, and the Working Group on Intelligence Reform, and is a consultant for the Dept of Defense. William Kristal has the Honorable distinction of having been appointed and Dan Quails leash master and muzzle. These guys and people like Michael Ledeen who wrote 'Machiavelli on Modern Leadership: Why Machiavelli's Iron Rules are a Timely and Important Today as Five Centuries Ago.' a thesis that proposes a foreign policy of perpetual war and a Strong leader who uses lies as a weapon of control and protection... sound familiar? Representative Ron Paul website has an article called 'Neo-Conned', a MUST READ speech he gave to congress on 6-10-03 about Machiavellian NEOCON's. in essence there has been a Coup, cinched by Bush stealing the election, that has taken over the government and is using disinformation and psychological brainwashing..AnnThrax is now an accepted political consultant on not just fox...! they have skillfully divided America into intolerant groups.. i feel that are near to civil war. the republicans with a smirk and puffed up chest pronounce that bipartisan cooperation is nothing more than "Date Rape".

4. A little Irish song I was thinking of
Early every year seeds are growing
Unseen unheard they lie beneath the ground
Would you know the fall the leaves are showing
That with weeds all your garden will abound

If you close your eyes stop your ears close your mouth
How can you know
The seeds you can not see may not be there
The seeds you cannot heard may never grow

In January you still have a choice
You can cut the weeds before they start to bud
If you leave them to grow higher they'll silence your voice
And in December you may pay with your blood

Close your eyes stop your ears close your mouth
And take it slow
Let others take the lead and you bring up the rear
And later you can say you didn't know

Every day another vulture takes flight
There's another danger born every morning
In the darkness of your blindness
Please learn to fight
How can you fight if you don't recognize the warning

Close your eyes stop your ears shut your mouth
How can you know
Let others take the lead and you bring up the rear
And later you can say you didn't know

Today you may earn a living wage
Tommorrow you may be on the dole
Though there's millions going hungry you needn't disengage
For it's them not you that's fallin in the hole

It's alright if you forget your past
It's alright if you agree with all they do
If the fascist party slowing climbing back
It's not here yet so what's it got to do with you

The weeds are all around us and they're growing
It will soon be to late for the knife
If you leave them on the wind and around the world they're blowing
you may pay for your silence with your life

Close you eyes stop your ears close your mouth
They're never there
And if it happens here
They'll never come for you because they know you really didn't care
