1. What good does it do, we have contacted them
so many times and I have not seen any change but this 'village Idiot' getting in again by rook or crook (with the vast majority of help from the media)

If they can't stop him, who can? What are they doing, besides nothing!!


:think:

2. We have to try. If we don't do everything we can to stop the BFEE
from turning the US into a police state, then we deserve what we get. I think there are a few congress critters, even some repukes, who have an inkling of what is coming.

It's totalitarianism - fascism, theocracy, soviet model, won't matter if we don't fight for our democracy.

Stop the "October Plan"

5. It's a hell of a lot crazier to belly up to the fascists
and believe it or not, a lot of the politicians will lose out too if the BFEE goes through with their plans. And they know it. They also need to know that the citizens of the country want them to act.

Why do you want to discourage people?

11. FYI, I'm not here to discourage but
to tell like it is, we are all in the same boat, and trying to achieve the same thing, what good does it do for you to attack me bluntly? just because I pose concern.

9. October Plan - Short Version
Edited on Mon Sep-20-04 03:40 PM by kayell
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/09/17/eveningnews/main644096.shtml

(CBS) Convinced that al Qaeda is still determined to disrupt the U.S. fall elections by an attack on the homeland, FBI officials here are preparing a massive counter-offensive of interrogations, surveillance and possible detentions they hope will disrupt the terrorist plans, reports CBS News Correspondent Jim Stewart.

FBI field offices and Homeland Security agencies will be advised of "extraordinary measures" that will go into place "beginning the first week of October through the elections."

An internal e-mail advisory to supervisory agents this week from the FBI's "'04 Threat Task Force" said the purpose of the counter-offensive is "to foster the impression that law enforcement is focused on individuals who may be a threat."

Some of the exciting snips

"FBI officials here are preparing a massive counter-offensive of interrogations, surveillance and possible detentions"

FBI field offices and Homeland Security agencies will be advised of "extraordinary measures" that will go into place "beginning the first week of October through the elections."

the purpose of the counter-offensive is "to foster the impression that law enforcement is focused on individuals who may be a threat."

the plan calls for "aggressive - even obvious - surveillance" techniques to be used on a short list of people suspected of being terrorist sympathizers, but who have not committed a crime. Other "persons of interest," including their family members, may also be brought in for questioning,


One element of the plan calls for addressing what some officials fears could be a wave of protests from Arab-Americans and civil libertarians once the so-called "October Plan" kicks off.

8. Meanwhile while the bastids r keeping us busy with Oct plan, Goss is

Goss is not acceptable...he turns a blind eye to the illegalities of
the CIA

14. call to complain about Ashcroft rounding up dissenters to fascism and Goss
even being considered -- his local airport is known as a drug importer
and has had 24 helicopters disappear that cant be found... and this is
not someone who should be considered as head of any "intelligence" agency
