Dissent Is Now Dangerous
COMMON DREAMS

[Duchess Note -- Dissent is very pro-American and our right to question government, plus keep TRUE democracy alive.  Do not be afraid!  Stand up for your rights!  Don't let those screaming, insane bullies on extreme right-wing news programs [ie: Fox News, CNN, MSNBC] tell you otherwise.  Corporations, media and the Bushies want to instill fear in all Americans, as well as employ total repression.  Its Orwells "1984" come to life and in full blown technicolor.  If we true patriotic Americans mass together, we can squash it and get back OUR democracy.]
