Here Dennis Prager propagates the line that BushCo has been floating for some time: that, if Obama loses, the USA will burn, baby, burn!
<http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2008/09/liberals_warnings_about_obama.html>http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2008/09/liberals_warnings_about_obama.html This alarmist jive is not an earnest warning. It's pre-propaganda, laying down a terroristic story-line that will be very useful if and when McPalin steals the race, and people (of all colors) dare to protest over it. Then the cops--and military personnel--will crack down hard, for "our" protection. BushCo is all ready for this move. First of all, Bush now has a free hand to deploy the National Guard of any state and send them anywhere he wants to: a right he got when Congress passed the National Defense Authorization Act in 2006. (This law was passed despite the strenuous objections of the nation's governors, as reported at http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qn4182/is_20060815/ai_n16644258.) And now he'll also have the 3rd Infantry Division's 1st Brigade Combat Team, fresh from Iraq, to "patrol" the US, and "help with civil unrest and crowd control," as the Army Times reports (at http://www.armytimes.com/news/2008/09/army_homeland_090708w/). So be prepared, if/when McPalin steals it, for lots of action that could make the Battle of Seattle look like Woostock. Or we could thwart such a move--by talking openly about the possibility, and trying to get the media to do so, too.
