"Naomi Wolf's End of America is a vivid, urgent, mandatory wake up call that addresses momentous issues of tyranny, democracy, survival: Who are we now? How did it come to this? Government by decree, torture by decree, secret prisons, disappeared prisoners. Others before us have lived in a rule-by-one, no checks and balances, security-imprisonment state that ended habeas corpus, due process of law, the right to know and access to information. But this is America! What about voting rights? Will there ever again be a paper trail? Can democracy be restored? For enlightenment and hope, we would all do well to carry about and give to all our allies Naomi Wolfs profound and urgent essay. It is the book we need to carry with us as we regroup and rally for the return of justice and political sanity."

This lady has opened not only my eyes to the truth, but my mind to speak it. OBAMA IS RIGHT...WE NEED CHANGE. However, NOT the change he is imposing on the people. What he wants us to believe is that he is the "GOOD GUY" as apposed to W. However, he has not shown he will repeal anything that Bush has done as of yet, Like the fact that the president can declare a state of emergency and put troops in place where they clearly do not belong. On top of this he allows a 60 day period to pass before telling congress. Why is this so important? If you really listen to this lady, she has shown the result of the same practices of what the US citizen would consider monsters of history, like STALIN, HITLER, MUSILLINI, BUSH(oops), doing. They all have very similar ways about them, and did not gain the trust of the people over night, but through many various ways of deception and double talk. Bush has done this even more blatantly than all of them combined, because people knew he was enacting this abuse of power, and looked the other way, not remembering the historic results of the past as a result of actions like his. The ability to tap anyone's phone, Illegal search and seizure, false imprisonment, TORTURE and HOMICIDE.. Ok now that Bush is out, OBAMA can't possibly allow this same process to keep going, after all he is for the people and the great Constitution of the United States, RIGHT? Well now let's see here, just yesterday a reporter asked him (during a press conference on the "stimulus"/ INFLATION proposal) what he thought of steroids in baseball. WTF?? It was a direct aside to the mounting problems we are going to have with our economy, as if to lighten the real problems at hand that affect each and every citizen of this country. Obama of course said he is concerned about the children in that case, but if he really were concerned about our children and generations to come, then he would demand the protection of our liberties and freedoms. If he had any balls at all he would go after the corruption of the banking industry and corporate giants. Hit em where they hurt, and not bail out these industries that are hurting, but charge their CEO"S and top exec's with crimes for their misuse of power. I understand that not all people made the mistake, but you have got to know that what was done to the american people was a crime, or we would not be in this mess. Just a few people had to screw up and look the other way for this to get where it is now, and the sad part is that many great and ethical financial minds tried to tell these people not to do what they did. That to me is highly gross misconduct, and should be punishable by imprisonment, and fines. These people think they are above the law, and essentially they are. If a no name rich guy mislead people and took their money, he would be indicted on running a "ponzie" scheme. What is the difference between this guy and what the fed does everyday?? Nothing. They both borrow money that they know will never be paid back. ABSOLUTE MADNESS. Now here's the thing, I think they are doing it, because the gov. wants you to rely soley on them, so when it is time they can have complete control over everything that happens in our lives, yet give the facade that we are still free. They will occupy our minds with worry and fear, and them they will also appear to be the great solvers of our problems as well. Thus making us more and more reliant on them, and if you don't agree and say something about it, well they have nice prison camps for those people now don't they.
