There is not going to be some savior from the
Democratic Party. This whole idea of putting our hopes and energies
into “leaders” who tell us to seek common ground with fascists and
religious fanatics is proving every day to be a disaster, and actually
serves to demobilize people.
But silence and paralysis are NOT acceptable.
That which you will not resist and mobilize to stop, you will learn –
or be forced – to accept. There is no escaping it: the whole disastrous
course of this Bush regime must be STOPPED. And we must take the
responsibility to do it.
