It’s pretty much over now. When the Senate failed to remove a perjurer from the White House it became clear that our political system is not much more than a sham.
I agree completely.
February 12, 1999 was the day I lost my country.
If Hillary is elected in November, that will be the day that will see either a revolution, a military coup, or a second civil war within the time of her term or terms as President.
Although the post quoted an article that is not genuine, it is clear, that we are at a crossroads in American history. Anyone who can see clearly knows this, even instinctively.
The curse of the Clintons has one more chance to be defeated.
They were not in 1992 or 1996. In 2000 and 2004 Hillary was elected a Senator. Now in 2008, she stands an excellent chance of becoming President of the United States.
If she is not defeated, we are looking at the end of constitutional America. And a dark time in our future.
It will cost little to defeat her before she assumes the mantle of power. After she does, the cost will be more than we can imagine.

And thus:
Geeks out there may slash away but I don’t believe I'm far off:
A current state of the art microprocessor can execute about thirty billion instructions per second, (not million but billion - also related to flops but to keep it simple use ips).
Using one’s social security number, xxx-xx-xxxx, and taking one’s position on the planet, to an accuracy of a fifty foot square, (e.g.xxxdeg xx.xx’ - xxxdegxx.xx’) one’s “person-location” can be given in about 72 bits, let’s say 75.
Given three hundred million numbered individuals in the US, and dividing thirty billion by three hundred million means that the one processor (computer) can dedicate 100 instructions per second to each person; or conversely every 0.75 seconds (75bits /100 ips) a "person-location" can be moved to a memory register. That is, this one computer can roam over every individual, e.g. you, in the United States and return in three quarters of a second (given adequate input/output channels).
This means that if one wants to stay ahead of the computer one must move faster than fifty feet per three-quarters second, or about 40 mph; and that’s constant motion because the computer, as long as it is fed electrical current, doesn’t quit; if one stops it catches up. It also means there is an uncertainty index (now 40 mph), the Suntrade Uncertainty Index (SUI) similar to Heisenberg’s Principle, which defines the tracking precision, or “person-location,” as a function of the current processor state of the art, resolution of location on the planet, and the total number of people tracked. This is the power, a government, an agency, a corporate stalker, or a Hillary Clinton, can exercise over every numbered citizen in the United States, kind of like the Borg, right now! And it’s increasing (mph) all the time.
What does this mean to you and I? It means that the government you elect better be Moral. It better be Honest. It better be Humble, and Mature enough to face its own faults and limitations. It better admit that freedom, responsibility, and dignity, of the individual is the primary reason for government in the first place. Because if it does not, but rather thrives on power over others, there will be power over others. The others is YOU.
