Even as we speak, GWB and his minions are working to entrench a Fascist regime that we will soon be powerless to resist. Below is the blueprint for establishing a fascist state as documented by Naomi Wolf in The End of America:

1.Invoke an External and Internal Threat
2.Establish Secret Prisons
3.Develop a Paramilitary Force
4.Surveil Ordinary Citizens
5.Infiltrate Citizens’ Groups
6.Arbitrarily Detain and Release Citizens
7.Target Key Individuals
8.Restrict the Press
9.Cast Criticism as “Espionage” and Dissent as “Treason”
10.Subvert the Rule of Law

All of these are in place to some degree, but not enough to assume complete control of American citizens. The articles on infowars and other alternative media sources can offer helpful hints on how the "Fascist States of Amerika" plan to subdue and disarm its citizens (poisoning, water contamination, reducing food supply, natural or “unnatural” disasters that demand forced relocation, etc.).

It is in the last chapter, “The Patriot’s Task,” that Wolf provides some final messages of hope that the country’s moves towards the closing down of democracy can be reversed. Solutions are also presented, including the need to “hold house parties, set up town halls, convene our neighbors, pass out users’ guides to the Constitution, overwhelm our representatives and the Presidential candidates with demands for them to restore the rule of law,” as well as “stand up directly to confront those who have committed crimes against the Constitution — and hold them accountable.” As the crimes against the Constitution have been numerous, and accountability has been lacking, it is uncertain how practical these suggestions may be, but neighbors and communities can come together over their disillusionment with the current state of American politics.

However, should we doddle and allow the Fascist State to be firmly established, the expected result would be protest, followed by paramilitary response and the severing of communications (internet, phones, etc.). After that, it is a simple exercise of divide and conquer through a series of pincer movements until the entire population is brought under state control.

Every day we ignore the obvious, we get weaker while fascism grows stronger. This is not a one person job. We must organize, convince the masses and implement a counter-offensive against the political structure while we still can. Should we succeed in impeaching Bush and Cheney & others by applying enough pressure en masse, we can then focus our attention against the corporate beast that has a stranglehold on the free market. Napoleon & Hitler lost their wars by simultaneously fighting a war on two fronts—if we make the same mistake, we will also fail.

We get the kind of govt. we deserve. If we let fascism get firmly entrenched, we will have no one to blame but ourselves. We have until the end of this year to get fascism out of the White House. After that, it will be too late to do anything of consequence. Ron's manifesto will be a memorial for the United States of America.

Hmmm become an all out target as the "kook's" and conspiracies nuts they really want us to be to discredit us, ummmm, no, but only because we can still change things and look rational at the same time.

Though i will say that path could attract others. (There should be no subversion, no downplaying of legitimate ideas)
Just because I may not agree with that being the main purpose should in no way stop you from pursuing interest.

Kucinich actually filed for the impeachment of Cheney but it has since been buried, we are at war, and no one wants to be the one who "distabilizes the nation, by taking away her ruler." problem is we are the rulers, not them.

So pursue at your own risk. We will still keep going, with a revolution, it is simple to have a set goal, but with this one, returning to conservative values, based upon the foundation for this countries government found in the Constitution, should stay very much in the forefront until enough people wake up; and allow for freedom to really take hold.

If Mccain and the rest of them are right, and we are hated for our freedoms, then we are the next targets. But for some reason I just can't believe that. :-)

Each group that splits from the major movement will have a goal, maybe it will be accomplished, maybe not, but with each goal it represents but a small step in the right direction, each one a victory, as long as this message stays alive, in but one person, it will be heard.

It's not too late! We need to get RonPaul into office, or any high position of power.We've got Cindy Shehan running for ( house of Reps?). Now that's a combo I'd like to see! :) I would love Impeachment, but would settle for a long trip to the Hague. The entire bunch! Bush, Cheney, Condi, even Pelosi if she continues to ignore the will of the people! This includes the aides and secratarys that passed the memos for torture, and other hideous warcrimes! No mercy from me!! ( love Poker Face!) :)

Impeachment will solve nothing. You don't think the entire top tier is under control? Even if we were succesful we would just pass the buck to the next guy in line. He will step right in and carry on the same course. Be careful of Naomi Wolf. If she is as smart as you think why is she trying to sell Obama?

If by impeachment you mean taking over the federal gov't through the election of Ron Paul supporters over the next few years, then yes, let's impeach Congress and the President.

The President has been terrible, obviously. But I am so sick and tired of people ignoring the fact that Congress has been just as terrible. They do their job, we're not in the mess we are now. Period.

If you are someone who believes in God.....I ask you to pray that the neocons are taken down by the DC madam's alleged suicide in the mother of all scandals......

I wish nothing more for the whole crew of neocons in the white house to be taken down by her alleged suicide.....

If enough of us cry out for justice to the creator for all the innocent blood on the hands of the neocons, I believe the DC madam's alleged suicide can be the mechanism to finally bring these warmongering killers to justice........I am sure their actions killed many who were deserving in the eyes of god, but i also believe they also killed many who were innocent, they need to be brought to justice for their indiscretion.......

Ron Paul will not be the next President of the United States. If this is to be a realistic revolution, the goal should be to elect people to Congress who share Paul's views. All it takes is a dozen or so people voting in a bloc to have a tremendous effect on close votes in the House. Right now there are dozens of candidates running for Congress who share Paul's views. Jesse Ventura might even be starting up a Presidential run (perhaps Paul could become Vice President).

Ron Paul is a one in a million man. I'm not sure if we elected an entire new congress if we'd see the same type of dedication, devotion, honesty and integrity we have in Paul. As Ron stated in a debate, he came to Washington, but Washington didn't change him. I fear too many people want in the position of power to try to change things, but would eventually give way for special interests for their own gain.

I do..every day he is there is a day something he is doing to undermine this country. He and Cheny should be immediately removed to a place of little power, thereby, hopefully, making it easier to repudiate any agreements he has made recently with other countries.

I disagree. There are many who go to Congress, serve a few terms, and vanish. People like this are good for the system, regardless of their political views. They're not all-consumed by the power of Washington. The people who stick around for an entire career often are consumed by the power, but Ron Paul's rare combination of being both uncorrupt and long-term is not totally unheard of, and I don't think that the tendency to become corrupted is argument enough to write off a strategy of sending like-minded citizens to Congress. We are a lobby. If we become powerful enough, we gain the ability to remove a person from power as easily as we put them in power.

The office of the Provost Marshal is in Fort Belvoir, Virginia. He has the authority to arrest GWB and anyone else in the White House or Capitol Hill and conduct thorough investigations without interference. This is their website: http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/agency/army/cid.htm

It doesn't take much organization to send emails, letters, picket or have a sit-in until the Provost Marshal does his job. Bush has committed enough crimes to be arrested and should be. Washington is corrupt and dysfunctional. This way might be the only way to stop GWB from starting WWIII.

Impeachment is not a feasible goal. It's too far outside the mainstream to be considered credible. This revolution needs to focus on attainable goals, such as electing half a dozen or so Ron Paul congressmen to Congress.

Impeachment is too little and too late. I would prefer to see O-bomb-a set up a special prosecutor to pursue the neocons after they leave office so that they cannot claim executive privilege or national security. Instead of simply losing their job with a month or two left in office they could send them up the river for some serious time behind bars. Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice, Bush, and several others. I bet that an aggressive prosecutor in combination with the right public relations spin from the white house could get convictions on on at least 30 neocons that have been part of the Bush administration. But I don't believe there is the political will to do it. These people are all part of the same big club, and the voters aren't pressuring them. At least not yet. There may be some point where purging D.C. of neocon influence might become politically expedient, and in that case I do believe that these people will devour their own if it helps them politically.

The reasons you would impeach bush would be the reasons you would impeach every other person who voted for the war. If you are consistent, a mass impeachment would be the only possible way to pull it off.

Can you convince the king to give up his crown? These people would have to be voting themselves out of power. They allowed the Patriot act and the authorization of force to pass. At the time, the people wanted it. War crimes are international courts. What the hell guys!

Does anyone really get whats going on here? We are fighting for America here. We elected them. They can't rig elections on the scale it would take to make us completely blameless.

If you are looking for someone to blame, look around in a crowd of people. Look in the mirror. Lets stop trying to correct it by removing leaders, and start correcting it by changing minds.

If the Provost Marshal arrests GWB and Cheney, martial law is enforced and a temporary administration is installed. Ron Paul could very well be the leader of that administration. A thorough investigation would result until all the corruption is removed from Capitol Hill and the White House.

Impeach the Bastards!! As my button on my jacket says. On Democracy Now, a great program that airs on a lot of local radio stations, had a guest on (link below) that talked about holding some of our leaders accountable, even on an international level. (An international tribunal looking at our leaders is a little much, for a person who believes in sovereignty.)

Basically, it was abou the torture issue, specifically Rumsfeild. This has to do with him possibly ok'ing torture practices in a famous memo that said something about how being forced to stand was not torture because he, Rumsfield, stands for hours on end. LOL

This is a transgression against the 8th Amendment! That and habeus corpus. They betrayed the American people, and they should at least be stripped of all signs of power.

This "worse case" scenario is actually the probable scenario if we allocate needed money and volunteer talent to impeaching the president (especially since the president is already universally reviled as a goon and rendered next to powerless by an antagonistic congress).
I said fire the whole rotten crew ( including the Congress ), and not impeach.
Aside from that slight clarification, I agree with you. ;)

Thanks.

Impeachment Must be the Primary Goal of this Revolution?

I can't even go on and seriously read your post...because the title is wrong. That IS NOT the primary goal of this revolution. :rolleyes:

Impeachment is a waste of time. Focus on the future instead of a pipe dream that - even if successful - wouldn't change a thing

I thought liberty was the primary goal?

Yep.

How about focusing on fixing the nation's ills, and not political payback?

The election is just five months away. These guys are already packing their bags. Peach cobbler has me hungry.
