So I'm up at dawn, puttin' on my shoes. I just wanna make a clean escape; I'm leavin', but I don't know where to.

Swiped directly from Crooks and Liars, because he said it better than I could just reword it. By the way, Crooks and Liars is a great blog anyway; it's a video blog. They present video clips from the interesting stories of the day along with written commentary. A really cool place to get good information. For instance, here's a video rundown of the Gannon/Guckert story.

Is there enough going on to make you nervous yet? The Vice President of the United States was the
keynote speaker at a conference where other speakers
called for "a new McCarthyism" to bring "terror" to intellectuals,
saying "let's oppress them [liberals]," and "the entire Harvard
faculty" are "traitors." A
Congressman said,
"America's Operation Iraqi Freedom is still producing shock and awe,
this time among the blame-America-first crowd," ? Then he said, "We
continue to discover biological and chemical weapons and facilities to
make them inside Iraq."

Meanwhile, right-wing commentators talk about
killing American journal (`entry_id`,`time`,`title`,`body`,`topic`,`description`,`delicious`) ists, their premier blogs talk about former president Carter as being on the side of the enemy and leftists have "seamlessly taken up the cause of Islamic fascism"


. I have provided only a few examples.

When you hear threatening talk like this,
in the company of the country's leadership,
you know that whatever comes next isn't going to be pleasant. Things do
not appear to be heading in a good direction at all. If you have been
following this in the blogs, you know that more and more people are
becomming concerned that the Right's rhetoric is growing ever more
violent and totalitarian. Serious people have started referring to
the "f-word." (See also here, here, here, here and many other places.) read on
