Checking in ...

This looks like a pretty good post, haven't had the chance to read through the whole thing ...
"A Nation in Silent Anger"

Some alarming news ...
"Bush changes plan for emergency shadow government"
http://rawstory.com/news/2007/Bush_Changes_continuity_plan_0510.html
"President Bush yesterday issued a national security directive that would, in the event of a catastrophic attack on the federal government, assign the responsibility of running a shadow government to the White House, not the Department of Homeland Security, according to a Washington post report."

I remember they did a lot of weird things like this right before Sept. 11 '01 (like what Jeb Bush did with Florida on Sept. 7th http://www.rense.com/general14/jebdeclared.htm ). Europe is really heating up right now -- the Germans are getting ready for a big G8 protest http://portland.indymedia.org/en/2007/05/359202.shtml and the French are still rioting over what I consider to be a disasterous Sarko victory. There were major riots in Turkey and Switzerland on May Day, as well. And with 3 aircraft carrier groups in the Persian Gulf, an increase of the "surge" by 35,000 troops ... it's hard *not* to see a disaster in the works ... yet I've been living on pins and needles for the past 5 1/2 years waiting for the other shoe to drop. It doesn't do any good to worry. You just have to keep on moving, remaining vigilant but not letting it trip you up ...
