I am convinced that Naomi Klein's "Shock Doctrine" and John Dean's "Conservatives Without a Conscience" are in full swing. For too long, we silly, hippy, liberal free-thinkers were having fun and taking our democracy for granted, while Dr. Frankenstein was busy in his lab, building the corporate monster. What will happen now?

I'm glad to see the uprisings throughout the world. I think someday we will be doing the same thing. Some are already doing this but not in the intensity we see in Libya, for example.

We possibly could avoid this if can continue to rise up as in Wisconsin. Wouldn't be nearly as bloody, I think.

They pander only to get elected.. For the most part I believe they do the bidding of major corporations (because thats where their money comes from)..
