Fellow American Conservatives and Constitutionalists:
There could be a silver lining in this election mess. More Americans than ever are beginning to realize what is at stake, what the battle is over, and what the Democratic Party is all about. They are hopefully beginning to see that "the ends justifies the means" thinking going on puts us at risk for war and bloodshed.
But in these infuriating times, our response to the corruption MUST be thought out.
If Bush is allowed to win, we can probably go back to our homes, so to speak, and continue our struggle within the conservative camp, some of us working to bolster the Constitution Party or help conservative Liberterians and Republicans, and some of you, for whatever insane reason, working to move the GOP ever closer to the Democratic Party. But if Gore is allowed to steal the election, we HAVE to respond. I think it might be best for the nation politically if Gore IS elected under these circumstances, but at the same time, if we don't raise a ruckus, the Dems will have gotten away with the ultimate, and may be unstoppable.
So, if Gore wins, we HAVE to act. How to act?
I have heard (and given) suggestions for various kinds of demonstrations, tax revolts, seccession, food strikes by rural America, and even suggestions of uprisings.But we need to be careful. Over-acting would be as dangerous as failure to act. I think most of us can see that this nation is still divided, for essentially the same reasons, along similar geographical lines, the same way it was in the 19th century. The same group of people are being used as pawns by the aggressors, even. In a way, the horrible war that culmunated from that division never settled anything. The seeds of that conflict continue today, adn in some ways the differences in the two sides have even increased.

What's interesting, is that in the 1990s, they also accused Halliburton of war profiteering in Kosovo, I wrote more about that and other Freeper related contradiction posts here:
