I heard on the radio this afternoon that a CBS poll found

that 61% of the country does not want the National Guard sent to their city, which, to me, begs the question: who the hell are the 39% that are okay with it?

I may be off on the exact percentage, but it was over 60% don't want them.

A side note: when has the Republican party ever paid the slightest bit of attention to what the country wants? They do whatever they (or their corporate masters) want.

Could it be this group who is in favor of invading US cities?
