love one another

I am concerned over the amount of animosity toward difference which seems to be growing in this country. Homophobic and anti-immigration legislation is just one of the methods which the hegemonic white culture is employing to keep themselves in power. Raising the fines on decency violations by network television is another. This, of course, is seen as protection of our children. A time worn tactic which is merely a smoke screen for censhorship. All of this is being done under the guise of democracy in action and the protection of freedom. I would honestly like Bush supporters to show me how our country has improved since he has taken office. These Christian conservative zealots believe his presidency has given them carte blanche to rule the country. Their aggressive grasp of the reigns of power and the reluctance of opposing ideologies to speak out against Bush and these conservatives makes me fearful of what lies ahead for our nation. The fervor with which the conservative coalition has been attacking the Constitution only makes the likelihood of violent civil unrest when the winds of change begin to blow, as they inevitably will, loom frighteningly large in the distance.
