HERE IS THE ARTICLE for this question: "It is my argument that, beneath our very noses, George Bush and his administration are using time-tested tactics to close down an open society.

t is time for us to be willing to think the unthinkable -- as the author and political journalist Joe Conason has put it -- that it can happen here. And that we are further along than we realize.

Conason eloquently warns of the danger of American authoritarianism. I am arguing that we need also to look at the lessons of European and other kinds of fascism to understand the potential seriousness of the events we see unfolding in the United States." They say the strategy is leading to the End of America.

John Q. Liberal is a professor at a local college. On Monday he gives a speech in which he denounces capitalism and the profit motive, and praises environmentalism as the highest moral ideal. When his speech is over, he confronts the organizer of the talk. “Where’s the check you promised me? You think I speak for free?”

From what I hear, the middle class is declining so fast that we don't even know what it is anymore. But what exactly defines middle class?
Here's two easy comparisons. One person lives in a semi-wealthy neighborhood. They obviously make a decent living. One would automatically consider them middle class. But they have a lot of credit card debt. They literally don't own the clothes they are wearing. They pretty much live paycheck to paycheck, but everything goes on credit, so they have that to fall back on in emergencies.
Then you have a family living in a neighborhood a step below semi-wealthy. Not a poor neighborhood, but definitely not a wealthy area. They do not have credit card debt, but they live paycheck to paycheck. But they own everything they have, except maybe the house and cars. They literally live on their means.
How can you say that one family is really wealthier than the other? Is it better to have everything on credit, or own everything you have?

Liberals claim to be open-minded. So, why is it when someone has beliefs different from them, they go nutso? My former boss told me that she thought a man was gay because he said on their date that he was saving himself for marriage. My liberal friend gets very angry if I voice an opinion about something, but she expects me to listen quietly to her opinions and not voice an opinion. Where is the open-mindedness?

What are the media outlets for al qaeda in Iraq? I have been told it is CNN and youtube.

"What can I say about this that hasn't already been said? It's truly pathetic but not at all surprising. I've grown so used to the fact that both CNN and YouTube have become the de facto media outlets for terrorists not only in Iraq but around the world that I no longer expect anything else, certainly nothing positive regarding our military in Iraq. Surf right on over to YouTube and view a nice video of a U.S. Tank being hit by an IED while a Muhammad worshipping, jihadist, goat loving, asshole chants "Allah Akbar" as he pushes the send button on the cell phone that detonates the bomb."

I can post stuff on various discussion boards that provoke agreement or violent disagreement, but usually if I post anything about opinion polls of Iraqis, few from the right or left bother to read them.

Since we are supposedly trying to teach them about democracy, shouldn't this be a major part of our debate? Instead we talk among ourselves about what we want to do for or to them.
