Repub Paul Craig Roberts on Thom Hartmann
Bush/Cheney will stage terrorist event to rally support back to their side. Also says he will never, ever vote for another republican.

1. This is scary stuff.
He thinks we could be under martial law by this time next year.

2. He said that was the only way for the Republicans to save their bacon
He also just said that the Republicans are "praying for" another 9/11.

3. That will backfire on them SO bad.
Literally.

Only the most insane, asskissing, "la-la-la-I'm not listening-la-la-la" dickheads would rally around what would be an 0-fer-2 administration in terms of their calling card: keepin' the country SAFE from evil brown people!

The rest would demand his resignation and not a moment too soon.

Does it have to come to more Americans dying in a false flag for the people to wake the hell up and storm LaFayette Park until the Failure Fuhrer tenders his resignation?

15. I honestly doubt that would happen
if there was another major attack in the US, the media will tell everybody to rally 'round Bush and the flag and that the reason we were attacked is because the Democrats didn't allow Bush to lock up every brown person in the country, along with those anti-war types.

19. I agree. The only thing they have left is the 'successful protection of the Motherland'
. . .oops . . . Homeland' card, and that is popped with an attack.

Yes, they would try to blame it on the Dems, Clinton, etc etc etc, but it will not stick.

The American people are tired of the 'War on Terror', public opinion that a change in course is needed is gaining momentum, and an attack would simply accelerate this movement.

About the only 'rally round the flag' event that I can see working in their favor would be an unprovoked major attack by a State actor, such as Iran sinking a ship, with incontrovertible evidence that the State actor staged the attack.

4. Rally support?
My guess is that it will be obvious enough to rally pitchforks and torches outside the WH.

5. Didn't he say he would never vote for another Republican again?
I thought that Thom asked him if he was still a Repub and that was PCR's response. He speaks so softly that I wasn't sure I heard right.

18. I'm listening to the replay
The exact words were, "I don't think I will ever vote for another republican, no."

22. Thanks, EPD. I never thought the day would come when he'd say that
Sorry for the delay in responding. Had to run some errands. It's just so weird that life goes on as the country rots away under our feet.

Thanks again! :pals:

P.S. I hope you got to see Bruce Fein with Bill Moyers on Friday night. I recorded it and plan to watch it again tonight. At least it's online, too.

6. explains failure to capture Bin Laden
It's hard to believe they couldn't have captured him by now. Could it be that he's more useful as a source of terrorist events?

Executive Order: Blocking Property of Certain Persons Who Threaten Stabilization Efforts in Iraq

This makes me afraid to post here. I guess that's the point.

13. HOLY SHIT!!! Does Congress even read those things???
Seriously! There hasn't been so much as a PEEP on his EO about taking over all sections of Government in the event of a National Emergency (as defined by him and him alone). Do they even know that he's signed an EO that has made them completely and totally irrevelant? It won't matter one whit which Party they're from...they're toast and Bush/Cheney are in COMPLETE control!

14. "never, ever vote for another republican"
Edited on Thu Jul-19-07 11:48 AM by Hubert Flottz
He might not ever get a chance to vote for anyone again, by the time king George gets done turning the country into the fourth reich.
