Our freedoms are not yet lost. There are, however, mechanisms in place to take them away very quickly. All we would need is another major crisis or false flag and President Bush could declare martial law and our freedoms are gone.

Wow, what a fantastic question. I just realized that bush might be actually smarter than we think? If no freedom, then they would not attack us ? lol So bush wants to take the damn problem causing freedom away, it's a smart strategy for him, why fighting them, just kill their interest in US , no more freedom !? lol And for Illegal Immigration issues, use the same trick, now why do people cross the borders, $$$ is the answer, so destroy the economy and devalue US $, then they run like hell south bond direction !? The man could be a genius ? Regards.

The American people have had their unalienable rights (guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution) eroded away, since at least 150 years. This has been effected in such a manner, that (most of) the people were quite unaware that it happened.
The only thing between us and a totalitarian regime is firearms. But, not to worry, the politicians and others are working hard, to disarm the people.
To place full blame on the "Bush regime" is quite unfair. True, we have seen more police-state tactics used on the people in the last six years, but we can't ignore history.
Anyway, my point is that, in general, people think that things are going quite well, as long the electricity is on, the TV works, they have their crummy jobs and something to eat...They don't realize that their ignoring of politics and important issues is gonna bite them in the a**, and hard.

The public is outraged. Our government has chosen not to listen. We want our borders secured first. Illegals in gangs and criminals out of the country. Our border guards released from prison.Employers held responsible for hiring illegals. Our laws upheld. When we get a candidate that will deliver all that we will vote for them. Not some liar or hypocrite christian like we have now. It doesn't matter if they are Republican, Democrat, or independent. Why are the voter in this country giving into these poor excuses of candidates?
Apparently people here think the government now being able to take your home if business decides they want your property isn't losing any rights. To have people now held without charges is now not losing your rights. To have 12 million illegals in the country including gangs and criminals and the government not securing our border is not losing your rights. To have the government look the other way while illegals take your job is not losing your rights. To have to pay taxes so illegals can get free health care, social services, schooling and in some states even vote, is not losing your rights. We can't all live in gated communities, some of us have to face the problems every day.
Oh yes, we still have freedom of speech as long as it doesn't offend some group, then you will get fired.

You seem confused. Third world countries such as Cuba or Venezuela have regimes, in America the term of a presidency is called an administration. losing the freedom to travel to Canada without a passport is something I can live with

You need to take a walk, back through the last fifty years. Have you ever heard or read President Eisenhower's speech on the dangers of Corporations taking over the U.S. and the world?

I believe there is outrage, but there are certain things that are happening which we need to look at:
1. The first is many are marching, doing a lot of work, but the Media is not controllled by people. Many of the broadcasting companies, are not really Independant, even though they seem to be.
If you study them closely as I did last year, I found each one, was controlled by:
a. Corporate companies and they have vested interest in arms, oil, diamonds, strategic lands.
b. These corporate, some are helped by politicians to push their agenda through, by disguised as leglisation of something else but these leglislations lead to the agenda of the corporate companies and politicians who need funding for their campaigns.
So, newspapers and broadcasting companies are not really controlled by the broadcasting companies but figure heads of companies, politicians and entrepreneur mongols.
Secondly, the outrage is there but even though a lot of people want to say and do, and I am talking ones who don't do anything even if they are outraged...are:
1. Scared because if they speak they are branded as unpatriotic.
2. They don't want to get hounded by the masses.
3. The masses are controlled by fear. And this fear brings the people to pull each other down.
4. Fear of losing what they have. When in reality, they already lost what they have or the truth is, there is no nothing to lose when you stand up for the right.
By causing differences, by creating patriotic, colour, culture, and even the concept that war is due to religion but not the fact it is created by corporations, backed by politicians, backed by institutions of powerful few....we now are divided.
Divided because now, for years, since we were children and from even our own elders - bombardment has been, the case that we are the future and the rest of people are Backward.
Much of the wars are created by corporation backing, politicians with agendas and planned years back. Much of the wars are carefully planned and the real agenda is not what people think.
The result is not oil. The result is not even gold or diamond. The result is not even land. The result is create as much fear as possible to scare people, so they can own the power, the power of freedom, giving BY THE PEOPLE, so they can do whatever they want.
If we look now, the real culprits are not really the coporations. The real culprits are not even the politicians or the media. They ALL EXIST because of us consumers, the people.
Any time, if people REALLY CARED, for real, and it's not some short time burst, we can all say, "ENOUGH!"
And no more oil. No more consumerism, and no more customers means no more money.
Money is not power. Nor is oil. Nor is land. The war, the real damn war is..
THE CONTROLLING of the MINDS of the people.
They did that years ago, by them coming together, and check how absurd it is but it is being done:\
"How can we get to control the masses?"
"Oh yes, the best way, is get them as young kids. So from early age, lets have them from 9am till 3pm. We got them all day, five days a week, for years to bang all the thoughts, our creation of what is right, what they need to know.
And if they don't comply and put all of it on paper when time comes, then we brand them as failures. They won't get the position they want."
So now, for years, people from day one, in school, in the yard are taught:
1. If you ain't white, you are different.
2. If you ain't black you are different.
3. If you don't pass exam you are freak, different, failure.
4. Oh, no, you can wear religious dress. That's different.
5. You must follow EXACTLY what we say, dress the way we want, speak the way we want, act the way we want, on the time the way we want, and when we want.
This conditioning fuels and gets people ready for the corporate world. When they are in there then, they are too scared to speak, to scared to be themselves because..
1. If I speak, people will outcast me.
2. If I speak, then I'll be seen as different.
3. If I pray, people think I am an extremist.
4. If I say or do anything political, I'll lose my job.
All these are put right in the Subconsious Mind of the people. And now, they are SLAVES to the system that controls the masses.
And the goal has been completed.
No one needs to help the masses to pull each other down, fight each other, kill each other, see difference in each other.
They are doing it already. Anyone with a great idea, business will be jumped down by their mates as, "forget it man. Just keep yah job."
As if we got control in damn job. Every child of presidents and royals are taught the following:
Business, business, business. Gain skill in talking, stand in crowd and speak, and share YOUR terms. Skills also in Human behaviour and how people think. People skills. Raising their confidence and to THINK nothing is IMPOSSIBLE.
We? We learn history...the one they want us to learn. No stand up talking, learning how to do speeches. Oh no. We don't want you to rise up and be a politician to make right or even think you can make it big in business and cause us trouble.
All that we see, is not just that. It is been planned and people follow.
But there is outrage but media, will not show that outrage except when there is an agenda from the big corporates.

There are no loss of freedoms, there is no regime, that's why there is no outrage.

Name one freedom you do not have now please. Are people knocking on your door as we speak since you have now spoken out against the government? Are you unable to worship as you please? Were you in a peaceful protest yesterday where troops shot you? Has your mail been opened and censored? Are you posting this from jail because you have been accused of being a political dissident? Yeah, I didn't think so.

I realize and can accept the thumbs down from my fellow conservatives but will say that I am not at all pleased with the Patriot Act. This to me, is robbing us of our freedom and we have yet to realize the repercussions that this will create.
