What if, by Patriot Act guidelines, right to life orgs were reclassified as terrorist organizations. Unauthorized-by-the-courts phone tapping and e-mail parsing and fundamentalist church embeds, anyone?
That is exactly what I've been warning about since Patriot was passed. These laws will be used against Christians.

Yep. Our collective fear and anger put us in a very bad spot. I remain hopeful that it will be fixed, even if it means the conservatives and libs meeting up temporarily as 'strange bedfellows'.
If not, we're pretty much doomed. America, I mean.

Can anyone thwart God's will for the end times?

It's God's will that America becomes a fascist nation and that Christians are persecuted?

Yeah, I know it's Naomi Wolf (from the Guardian, no less) and I don't agree with all of her examples, but what she is saying is basically true. And, as she points out, in a year and a half, Hillary might have all the power that Bush has accumulated.
If you ask me, it's a given that there will be a Democrat in power after 2008, and if you think that's bad enough, the fact that whoever is president will have all the power that Bush has accumulated for himself over the past six years should make your blood run cold.

Power, Bush? LOL, he's a crippled lame duck.
Sounding more like foaming-at-the-mouth dailykos rhetoric to me. Does this moonbat realize that if she was living in a true fascist state, she'd be lined against the wall and shot as an enemy of the state a long time ago?

A) She's not making any of it up.
B) There are plenty of real conservatives who are right beside her in their conclusions.

I don't understand what that means. Are you saying she's fabricating? Where, please?

I just saw your post, IJ, when I was previewing mine for typos:
A) I mean it's the same old left-wing rhetoric, no idea is new at all.
B) LOL, Ron Paul's on the libertarian left, never been mainstream conservative.
Even so, he dissents from THOSE points. Try emailing them to him an see his response...post it here too, if you can.
You mean name the congressmen?
Yeah. A conservative American member of Congress that agrees with her far-left thesis would be fine. Or any conservative at all that's on record.
I'll elaborate...one of her 10 "Points":
3. Develop a thug caste
When leaders who seek what I call a "fascist shift" want to close down an open society, they send paramilitary groups of scary young men out to terrorise citizens. The Blackshirts roamed the Italian countryside beating up communists; the Brownshirts staged violent rallies throughout Germany. This paramilitary force is especially important in a democracy: you need citizens to fear thug violence and so you need thugs who are free from prosecution.
Now, what's radical about THAT? Viva la revoultion, comrade.
