give me liberty

give me liberty or give me death-nothing less will do. the challenge to renew our belief in sovereignty is the bedrock of our dignity. freedom comes at a great price-vigilance. our sacrifice ensures that our legacy of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness is sustained.

the revolution never ended. every day we revolt-we challenge ourselves to be better, to be braver, to speak a greater truth. the efforts of centuries of freedom fighters has won us nothing when we turn our faces from our generation's fight. we ourselves become traitors when we say that the road is too hard, too confusing-what can i do?

we are living through a coup. we are facing our destruction. the bill of rights is become a memory-the constitution is a tradition; radical christians are grabbing the reins of government with the aid of disaster capitalists. the revolution is here and it is not being televised. the last thirty years has seen a proliferation of domestic terrorism, orchestrated by the states, the corporations and the churches. we have been attacked with campaigns of fear. we have been raped and told to marry our rapist for our future protection.

if We-as the People-are to survive the coming days then We the People must act. the criminality of the current regime is a threat to the security of the world. to end the largest terrorist state in history the real terrorists must be arrested, indicted, imprisoned. if a government betrays the People, the People are obligated to arrest and imprison those traitors-we are obliged to destroy any government that does not serve us and convene ourselves to construct a new society.

if we do indeed have elections this november 4th, we are lucky-for there is still a chance to evict and arrest those guilty of treason. if there is no election (or its fruits are denied flowering) then we shall be seeing each-other in the streets...

Drawing back the Curtain

If a people become truly duped-Orwell style-how long before the People awake? In these days, as the curtain closes on a free society, can we tip the scale? The economic scale is certainly doomed-but the fate of our Republic is much more open to change and influence.

A common consensus (85%) is that we are heading in the wrong direction. More than that eighty-five percent believe corporations have far too much power & influence in government. The people drawing these conclusions are very near to connecting all of the dots...pretty scary proposition for the "power" wielders.

The days are racing forward. One finish line is on the horizon (Nov. 4) and that finish line is the starting line of a whole new marathon. The course of our evolution requires ever more our guiding hand-of the People. By the People. For the People. No other power stands above We, the People.

Orwell and Atwood presented us with possibilities. They constructed tyrannical societies where every word is precious, where the keys to knowledge are closely guarded and complacency ruthlessly enforced. We know that truth is stranger than fiction (just look at the last 8 years). Still, we are not unaware of the parallels between the Big Brother and an ever expanding network of surveillance here in the land of the "free".

These parallels reinforce our resolve. We see deceit where it stands. We know hate speak and doublespeak-we understand the tools of obfuscation. We see the face of grand betrayal and are heeding the call to slay it. The precedent set by the Patriot Act (a truly Orwellian name for this fascist legislation) and all associated "anti-terror" legislation is not only coming straight from "1984", but from every dictatorship to steal power in the last century.

The "War on Terror" is a war on Freedom. If we are hated "for our freedoms" then is giving up those freedoms not handing victory over to the "enemy"
