Is it treason yet?

This is an open invitation to honorable patriots on the Right and in the 
center to join the movement to restore the rule of law and confront this horror 
-- 
this is not "conservatism," it is [treason] against the nation and against 
the very essence of America.   In Germany, according to historian Richard 
Evans, 
in 1931-1932, if enough Germans of conscience had begun to say 'No,' history 
would have had an entirely diferent outcome.

If we go any further down this road, the tears will be coming from 
conservatives as well as progressives.  The time for weeping must pass; the 
time for 
confronting must begin.

*THE LIST: American Tears*  
By Naomi Wolf 
Posted October 11, 2007 | 06:47 PM (EST)

I wish people would stop breaking into tears when they talk to me these days.

I am traveling across the country at the moment -- Colorado to California --
speaking to groups of Americans from all walks of life about the assault on
liberty and the 10 steps now underway in America to a violently closed society.

The good news is that Americans are already awake: I thought there would be
resistance to or disbelief at this message of gathering darkness -- but I am
finding crowds of people who don't need me to tell them to worry; they are
already scared, already alert to the danger, and entirely prepared to hear what
the big picture might look like.  To my great relief, Americans are smart and
brave and they are unflinching in their readiness to hear the worst and take
action.  And they love their country.

But I can't stand the stories I am hearing.  I can't stand to open my email 
these
days.  And wherever I go, it seems, at least once a day, someone very strong
starts to cry while they are speaking.

In Boulder, two days ago, a rosy-cheeked thirtysomething mother of two small
children, in soft yoga velours, started to tear up when she said to me: "I want
to take action, but I am so scared.  I look at my kids and I am scared.  How do
you deal with fear?  Is it safer for them if I act or stay quiet?  I don't want
to get on a list."  In D.C., before that, a beefy, handsome civil servant, a
government department head -- probably a Republican -- confides in a lowered
