luxphoto discovered 15 months ago- A thought provoking commentary - it's important to consider whatever one's nationality or party political preferences.

- The Republicans and America will be sorry they ignored Dr. Ron Paul and his message. Watch for the following to increase: From the page: "From Hitler to Pinochet and beyond, history shows there are certain steps that any would-be dictator must take to destroy constitutional freedoms. And, argues Naomi Wolf, George Bush and his administration seem to be taking them all "

- As described in her book - end of america

- "As Americans turn away quite leisurely, keeping tuned to internet shopping and American Idol, the foundations of democracy are being fatally corroded."

- Looks like all 10 steps are in place and about 5 are being actively practiced.

- History*) shows that any leader, of any party, will be tempted to maintain emergency powers after the crisis has passed. *) so does Revenge Of The Sith. Bush is on the dark side 8-(

- From the page: 'It is a mistake to think that early in a fascist shift you see the profile of barbed wire against the sky. In the early days, things look normal on the surface; peasants were celebrating harvest festivals in Calabria in 1922; people were shopping and going to the movies in Berlin in 1931. Early on, as WH Auden put it, the horror is always elsewhere - while someone is being tortured, children are skating, ships are sailing: "dogs go on with their doggy life ... How everything turns away/ Quite leisurely from the disaster."'

- Your child is in danger! From the page: "As difficult as this is to contemplate it is clear if you are willing to look that each of these 10 steps has already been initiated today in the United States by the Bush administration. Because Americans like me were born in freedom we have a hard time even considering that it is possible for us to become as unfree - domestically - as many other nations. Because we no longer learn much about our rights or our system of government - the task of being aware of the constitution has been outsourced from citizens ownership to being the domain of professionals such as lawyers and professors - we scarcely recognise the checks and balances that the founders put in place even as they are being systematically dismantled. Because we don t learn much about European history the setting up of a department of "homeland" security - remember who else was keen on the word "homeland" - didn t raise the alarm bells it might have. It is my argument that beneath our very noses George Bush and his administration are using time-tested tactics to close down an open society. It is time for us to be willing to think the unthinkable - as the author and political journalist Joe Conason has put it that it can happen here. And that we are further along than we realise."
