Bush says "I am positive that the Republicans will win". When he says things like this, it is scary. Its like he makes the decisions on who will be in power just by his words.
President Bush has signed into law a provision which, according to Senator Patrick Leahy (D-Vermont), will actually encourage the President to declare federal martial law. It does so by revising the Insurrection Act, a set of laws that limits the President's ability to deploy troops within the United States. The Insurrection Act (10 U.S.C.331 -335) has historically, along with the Posse Comitatus Act (18 U.S.C.1385), helped to enforce strict prohibitions on military involvement in domestic law enforcement. With one cloaked swipe of his pen, Bush is seeking to undo those prohibitions.
No kidding, Bart!!! There's already talk of people voting in Florida (I put up a thread but it died) punching in Democrat and in front of their eyes it showed them as voting Republican! What are we, morons???

The elections will be screwed around with. The Republicans will hold on to everything because of it. It has happened before and will happen again. The computers in use for elections will be rigged. That is the October suprise. "Suprise, Republicans win again", but just barely.
What i think is scary is when George W. is asked if Republicans will continue to control congress after Nov 7th, Bush says "I am positive that the Republicans will win". When he says things like this, it is scary. Its like he makes the decisions on who will be in power just by his words.
Impeachment is needed and needed fast.
We have a Dictator.
The other October little fox tidbit of a surprise is the Saddam verdict that is already decided, but the Iraqi government is probably being prevented from announcing it to await announcing a few days before the US elections to get the best possible Republican bounce toward the elections.
