Both positions are asinine both sides are letting the media frame their arguments and views........ That my friend is not awake. If the president was white there wouldnt even be a Tea Party. That is not awake.

People from both sides should be marching on Washington against:

The Patriot Act
Telecomm immunity
NAFTA/CAFTA
The Supreme courts decision on corporate participation in elections
Illegal immigration
These 2 illegal wars.
Electronic voting
Theres many many more reasons.........................

People arent awake yet. Folks will be awake when there are Gallows or Guillotines sitting on the Whitehouse lawn!
i disagree that if the president was white there would not be a tea party. the bailouts started the "awakening", not the fact that the new president was black.(or mixed, to be technical) the fact that he is continuing down the same road as bush when he promised change is what is causing the backlash.
people should be marching for a lot of reasons, including those given. the government is clearly setting up to monitor the people closely when the SHTF. i would think that would raise concerns among many americans.

you actually have an interesting perspective because you are overseas and can see things differently, and probably get different media sources as well.

i said before we should do what iceland did, which is park our butts on their lawns at home and make them notice us. they have their little washington bubble where they feel safe and maybe they need to SEE US.

Actulley the U.S. was secretly funding Junduallah to fight the Iranian government.

Thats true but as of now Iran is helping the Taliban because they want to weaken the U.S. because their country could get attacked from either the U.S. or Israel if things succeed in Afghanistan, but on the other hand they would never want to see Taliban return to power because this would pose a threat to the Iranian government.
