Scenario 1 Bush steals the election ...

What will happen in this country?

1. if it can be proven

that he "stole" the election through election fraud shortly after the election, he will never get inaugurated and will probably face life in prison if it can be shown that he had some involvement as something other than the dimwitted beneficiary. If it is proven beyond a shadow of a doubt three years later, it will be far too late to do anything about it.

What will happen in the streets? I think that the people involved in that election fraud will be praying that the authorities get to them first. There aren't enough national guard left in the country here to even remotely control the riots that would occur, and many of them would likely participate.

3. That's what I predict - riots and mass exoduses

IMO

4. and some people may choose to "privatize justice" . . (sarcasm).

5. Even if he's inaugurated, he'll be impeached.

He's lost the support of the military and CIA. He's losing the FBI. He has just about lost nearly all of the party moderates. Only the evangelical nutbags and his own echo chamber are isolating him from that reality. Cheney is just as, if not more so, vulnerable.

If Congress drags its feet on impeachment, prepare to see massive civil disobedience until they act.

Election fraud will typically take months (maybe years) to be fully documented, especially with video voting machines not subject to audit. However, even if he does cheat his way in, he's lost so much support all over the political spectrum that he won't stay there.

2. F**K Bush

He will go down in history as one of the most despised of all American Presidents.
He is made up of the same material that sticks to the bottom of your boots while walking across a cow pasture.

After the Election in November.
Just scrape this Pr**k off and rebuild, What more can we do.:puke:

6. What will happen? Nothing.

If there's still food on the shelves, gas at the station, cable still on?

Nothing will happen.

7. I agree with you.

There's a lot of big talk here on DU and elsewhere, but the glory days of the '60s are gone. Not that I was going to riot in any event, gotta watch "Everybody Loves Raymond" re-runs and my "return of the King" DVD.

8. I'm afraid I agree. Nothing.

A Third of us (the Freepy Third) will man the Concentration Camps and gleefully torture Enemies of the State.

A Half will meekly go and do whatever they are told up to and including the Camps, especially if those thing you mention are true.

The rest is Free America, the LAST remnant of the Old American Republic left. Like Free Peoples, what we do cannot be predicted.

9. What happened the first time?

There's your answer.

10. riots/armed revolution/civil war

11. A year ago

my sentiment was pretty much that I would emigrate to the EU if the shrub stole it again. I think I've changed my mind though. Sign me up for the revolution. And if I have to go down that way, I'm taking some right-wing conservative bible-toting pinheads with me.
