It took about 10yrs for actual shooting to begin in Civil War I. Are we in year 1 of Civil War II?

Want is going on is either a move to break up the US or 1933 like effort to become a fascist state.

When officials like the SOS of AZ defly the ballot process and creates a Federal/State issue to provoke a response, we are in trouble.

we would find we have more in common than we have differences.

They have been screwing everyone over, the 99% has a whole heck of a lot of Republicans in in too...(they are just too stupid currently to realize that it is the corporations that are screwing them, not welfare queens)

The elite's biggest fear is that we will begin to discuss what is really going on, that we will tell our stories to each other and realize just had badly they have been destroying our people for their unending greed.

The corporate media's job number 1 is distract and divide. And it has been working really well, just look at all the topics on DU. Democrats fall just as easily for this as Republicans.

The corporate media is creating reality, just as Karl Rove said, and everyone just keeps following along with whatever stupid ass issues they want to bring up and talk about.

The corporate media is completely bought and paid for by the 1%, for the 1%....yet everyone on DU believes the polls that say Walker is winning.

When we should be educating people on what 'free' trade has done to our economy (just as was predicted by Ross Perot and others with the slightest bit of common sense), sending our jobs overseas, no longer collecting tariffs, now everyone is on unemployment....might this have affected our revenue and ruined the economy?

These morons are blaming Obama for the economy? We need to hold their hand and take them back through history to see what happened. This is why history is important. This is why education is important.

Instead we are bickering about gay marriage, contraception and abortion.

The corporate media is the main source of the problem, the elite could not do it without them. We need to surround the TV stations as they did in Egypt and demand they tell the truth. We need to expose their lies, not just continue let them get away with them and even enable them by believing them ourselves.

Besides that, hasn't anyone else noticed just how brainwashed people seem? They don't know why they believe what they do and if you question it they fly off the handle. Anyone remember how 'RATS' was discovered being subliminally added to Bush commercials. Isn't it possible they are using this technology all of the time to brainwash people, making Americans stupid, reactive and completely uninformed.

All I know is that they want a civil war, they have been working on it for years, and they don't seem all that successful. Most of the brainwashed brain dead aren't paying much attention and didn't care all that much to begin with....so they are exactly motivated to go out and stand up for Limbaugh's beliefs.
