authorities over-react, and are not held accountable....You can ask the parents

of the girl who died after the Red Sox game in Boston - shot by police officers.

>He was not trying to make us fearful, but instead to empower us to be more

effective and to respond instead of reacting. He urged effective action instead

of protest...picking the issue you want to focus on locally, and finding a

trusted group of like minded people, and don't worry about trying to confront

the opposition, its not the correct medicine for this time

>He suggested doing much more personal things in small effective groups of

people that we know...and I think every single town can and should start to plan

for its own paper trail for the next elections, and sufficient convenient

balloting .... regardless of who has machines etc. It should and can be

organized so that no one has to wait in line....the Kenyon college students

could do a better job....Voting could even be staggered though-out the day

alphabetically, so that there are no lines and plenty of parking.

>By staying away from emotionally charged issues which divide people, he urged

bi-partisan unity around issues, and no one can argue against making sure that

every vote is counted.

>I hope/suspect that the Kerry campaign is working slowly and carefully and will

eventually be able to prove that the vote was rigged, but perhaps it won't be in

time to change the Electoral Vote in December.....it will be a ways down the

road...I feel Kerry operates from intellect and not emotion, wisdom instead of

reaction, and if his presidency was sacrificed in the name of a major course

correction, he will/did accept that role.

>If the Supreme Court takes away gay rights and reproductive rights, I hope that

the true up-side of this will be a renewed interested in women mastering their

own bodies. We have been hoodwinked into thinking that we are " free " if we can

medicate or operate, financing the lucrative medical profession. This is not

reproductive freedom.

>

>and we are not teaching our daughters the most simple ways of being in harmony

with their own bodies. Astrology is the area that can play the biggest role,

even just knowing that you are more fertile when the moon is in the phase of the

day that you were born....and to help people to understand their own sexual

needs/ strengths/challenges using their chart....

revere the sun "

>and churches and communities will be able to and can get around any laws by

creating a separate sacrament for gay couples, ....thank goodness the supreme

court refused to hear the case against Massachusetts.....there are points of

light, but they are not the ones the Republicans were talking about a few years

back.....

uncontrolled rage by some vectors , who caries this range unconsciously inside

themselves. But more I am concerned with what the response from a staunchly

fanatical and deeply paranoid administration is likely to do in the face of such

opposition. In his book America's Secret War, Statfor founder and CEO Dr. George

Friedman said that while the motives of the players in this game, may not be

moral, they were rational and there for explicable. Friedman's analysis is a

shrewed and reasoned one. However, in the growing evidences of Bush's fervent

fath driven aginda, I think he may have underestamated the power of the

irrational.
