America in Chains Tracker

Action to keep the pressure on the Democrats to do the right thing begins in earnest. They have two years, so they'd better get going.

Anyone figure out how to add this to their sig file functionally, let me know.

Please don't. Not a comment on your position. I see that banner/signature stuff on other boards and it gets so out of control that the board looks like clown vomit and the actual threads get lost.

Plus if everyone jumps on it it'll kill Wayne's bandwidth.

Right now I can surf the site from my cell phone. Signature banners will certainly make that a pleasent experience.

PUBLISHER'S NOTE: Quite a number of individuals have written us to ask why the "Democrats in Power" counter that first appeared in The Libertarian Enterprise last week—and will appear in issues to come until the Democrats go away or the sun burns out, whichever comes first—started with the day after the election, rather than waiting until January when the left wing socialists first take their seats in Congress.

As a student of anthropology, as well as a lifelong observer of history and human nature, I know that power is, first and foremost, a social phenomenon—only secondarily a political one—and that the Democrats are, in very nearly every way that counts, already in charge.

Look, for example, at the highly publicized meeting between George W. Bush and the newly-designated Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi. Six weeks ago, the second worst President America has ever suffered under still thought he was the King of the World. However the day after the election, his every waking minute became preoccupied with avoiding impeachment and being prosecuted for crimes against humanity. If he were a dog instead of the Chimpanzee-in-Chief, he would have rolled over on his back, his legs in the air, his throat bared for Nan Francisco.

I'm seeing similar submissive behavior at every government level, and it's only going to get more pathetic and disgusting between now and January. Socially, the Democrats have already taken over. They could say that the day after they're officially installed, the troops will start coming home from Afghanistan, Iraq, and the hundred and one surprising places they've been sent to since the Second World War, and those troops would start packing their toys and making dates with girls.

The Democrats could state publicly that they're going to set up a special court in Nuremburg, Pennsylvania to put Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld on trial, and Dick and Don would head straight for New Guinea.

The continued existence of this culture is incompatible with the continued existence of the Republicans and Democrats. Something new has to happen. Democrats are in power and we'll be counting the days they fail to do anything the voters elected them to do. They will take office with a moral deficit; I want that deficit seen and recorded, so that when Americans get fed up with them, they'll be less content just to let themselves get slapped over to the Republican side of the court.

They are just not the same since Lane Staley died.

Not only that but the Dems aren't even in power yet. Details Pat.....details

Whether I am for or against whatever is on the banner, I 2nd that banners be kept from this forum. As stated, on forums where it is allowed it becomes a test of sanity just to scroll down. Unless you can fit it in your avatar, forget it.

I don't think PP supports banners in your sig.

You don't read very well do you? Give it another go, then ask an adult for help.

I think you're correct, that's why html is shut off in the sig file area. I'll have to put it on my web site, when that's built.

Oh Patti, I read just fine but like most others here I only gloss over your cut and paste stuff. For instance I sorta quit reading when I reached the Salem witch trial part

P.S. Does Lew know about you and L.Neil Smith?

Now I know why Len comes here. He has a couple of toys here he likes to wind up.

Go Len, go!

on-ramp · 11-20-2006, 09:18 AM

wow, that's an aggressive schedule.

you really expect them to accomplist all that in just 12 days... it took them longer than that just to discover that a major hurricane hit New Orleans.

btw, dont forget Congress only works 92 days per year...

Yes, I have. I hate that crap, and for the most part I don't visit those sites.

Close, he comes here for Rodeo, myself, and a couple of others to get wound up. I'm happy to do it for him, in fact I'm here for you if you need your socialist clock cleaned again.

Alwasy happy to do a bud a favor.

About 92 days too many in other words.

Which, in reality, is about 62 days too many.
