By the way, I'd never kill a fellow American because of politics. This is just to show all of you that we're all being exploited, regardless of our political beliefs. The President can now declare martial law.
We are fighiting an open ended war against an invisible enemy. WAKE UP PEOPLE, WAKE UP!

Well it seems...based upon your list (I read the article in the BBC as well)...that we arewell on our way. Keep in mind that the Republicans want a UNITARY EXECUTIVE as well as a one party system...hence the six year reign of terror for the dems by the previous congress.
1) The internal enemy is liberalism and dissent
2) The gulag(s) are all around the world including Cuba (Gitmo)
3) The Thug Caste are the contracted military ie, Blackwater...who are immuned to ANY prosecution of wrong doings HERE (New Orleans) or in Iraq.
4) Internal Surveillance without court approval has been ongoing...Choice Point...a private data retrieval service covers what the constitution does not allow our government to cover.
5) Harrassing citizens groups has been ongoing in this administration as well. Anyone who has protested anything this administration has done is placed on the TSA's "no-fly list".
6) Arbitrary detention and release has occurred with many men of Middle Eastern descent. Some have gone on to sue the US Government for false imprisonment.
7) Target key individuals: Examples: Cindy Sheehan; Valerie Plame; Joe Wilson; John Kerry; ANYONE who is high profile and disagreeswith this administration is destroyed via reputation and worse.
8) Control the press: "nuff said!!!
9) Dissent equals treason: Just recently Tom Delay said that Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi have bordered on a treasonous act by sending Bush a bill that demands a withdrawal date. Cheney; Kkkarl Rove; Bill O'Lielly; Limbaugh; Hannity; Beck et al, calls ANYONE who disagrees with the Republican/neocon agenda TRAITORS.
10) The steady erosion of constitutional mandates have been eroding with impunity: Free speech; the right to protest; theright to a fairtrial; habeas corpus; the right to HUMANE TREATMENT by one's captors; etc.
However, I do not see where WE THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES should stand by and let these things take hold. Thats why the show of defiance by the Dems and some Republicans in congress. Hundreds of thousands of Americans of all ethnic backgrounds lost their lives in wars since the Revolutionary war to preserve LIFE; LIBERTY AND THE PURSUIT FREEDOM.
In my opinion this experiment we call democracy is FAR FROM OVER YET!! Here's what we need to do:
1) Securing the vote
2) Expanding Voter Participation
3) Increasing Voter Choice with Instant Runoff Voting
4) Scrap Winner-Take-All Elections
5) Direct Election of the President
6) Overhaul the US Senate
7) Reclaim the Airwaves
8) Minimize Money's Rule
9) Reform the Supreme Court
10) Restore Faith in Government:"Government is Good for You"
God Bless The United States Of America.

If they kill each other in battle the fight will be over entitlements. The time frame will most likely be when the baby-boomers retirement bill collides with the dwindling fossil fuel energy crisis. There will be neither assets to build the required infrastructure for a replacement source of energy or for any liberal agenda.
The main group that are weapons trained are the angry poor? The conservatives are too complacent to win the battle.

Liberals and Conservatives will never be in actual military war against each other because they are mature enough not to bite being incited to kill each just for the sake of simple politics.

No, I think Liberals and Conservatives just love to debate. Yeah, you have fanatics on BOTH sides, but for the most part I believe they BOTH have the best interests of America at heart. We just tend to disagree on what those interests are.

first of all real americans dont work like that, only you pinko lefty stalinist wannabees. secondly any fight between the two would be a shut out , right leaning folks not only have the weapons but the resolve and no how to fight for what we believe in. We will defend our selves. libs ALWAYS on the retreat , cut and run , surrender, try to talk,dodge the draft, run to canada, hold a march protest. remember who you are messing with. ours is the side that got you the right to say all the stupid things you say. You want a fight better not bring no damn move on , or code pink, or soros or hanoi jane,or kucinich and the dept. of peace.

Yep, when shut up and sing is a popular statement, you KNOW you have a problem. I'm not ready to make nice.
To answer the question...one would have to hope. Leaving moderates to inherit the Earth. Good one.

Hyperbole and fear mongering in one easy step
1. Create a question like the one above.
But to answer the first part, no. Liberals are too cowardly to confront others except instrictly controlled environments or unless they are in a mob greatly outnumbering their opponents.

No, I think that the "chicken little" folks that feel the sky is falling will first die from a critical overdose of paranoia.
