"Shallow Throat": Do Dems Have a Death-Wish?

"We can't count on Bush & Cheney resigning on their own volition, on Fitzgerald doing it for them, on unsupervised voting-machine tallies (by the Republican-supporting computer-voting companies who control the counting of ballot) giving them earned victories. In short, the Dems and their moderate GOP allies are going to have to force the issue themselves.

"The Dem base -- and a lot of angry traditional Republican conservatives and military officers at the Pentagon and intelligence officers at the CIA and elsewhere -- are ready for courageous action from their elected officials. But those leaders have to be willing to step out, take a deep breath and make the moves that need to be made to get rid of this corrupt, incompetent, vicious, power-mad crew. If they don't, we're all liable to go down with them. There are no more chances. This is it."

Shallow Throat turned off my tape-recorder and, before jogging out of the park, said: "Get this conversation published!" Since I also love my country, I'm happy to oblige. #
