a quote from glenn greenwald

(5) The basic mechanics of American democracy, imperfect and defective though they may be, still function. Chronic defeatists and conspiracy theorists -- well-intentioned though they may be -- need to re-evaluate their defeatism and conspiracy theories in light of this rather compelling evidence which undermines them (a refusal to re-evaluate one's beliefs in light of conflicting evidence is a defining attribute of the Bush movement that shouldn't be replicated).

and theres plenty of commentary that 'the dems elected are essentially republicans' line is bullshit,

take a bit of time, read and think, the whole world sees this as a significant shift in mind state, dont be so fast fellows to say, its nothing, its illusion, same gang different puppets,
maybe yes, maybe we'll see

Diluting any toxic mix simply so that it comes out just short of poisoning you to death doesn't mean that it isn't still going to make you sick...hmmm?

Marginally less bad isn't better. You still need a real "antidote" and so far there isn't one in sight.

I don't think any one here has any illusions about this being the end of ugly. Greenwald makes some good points, with some careful phrases... so do Jones and Watson with their cold shower approach.

Cheney has been quiet, suppose he is still out in the fields hunting.

Election 2006: Been Down So Long It Looks Like Up To Me

Postby Wolfmoon Lady » Thu Nov 09, 2006 1:27 am

I pasted the whole thing into the "Winners" thread - just putting the title and link here:

Election 2006: Been Down So Long It Looks Like Up To Me
By Chris Floyd

If anyone thinks the horrors of the Bush Imperium are somehow at an end - or will even be seriously impaired - by the results of yesterday's election, they have a harsh and bitter awakening to come.

Sweejak - love the Hannity comment. I'm happy to make them as miserable as possible. Will it matter? Prolly not. Unfortunately, too much damage has been done - and gone unchecked by the Dems.

Also. Mammon?

Yet to me, Clinton's giant head cannot be overlooked as the central peak in the valley of the W.
