My door is wide open. I'm waiting. I'm ready and I'm not scared.

I call Europe all the time. I email Europe all the time. I guess this might make me an enemy of the state.

I'm only scared of a few things. I'm scared that still the American people seem brain dead.

I'm scared that still plenty of Americans think George Bush is a good president.

I'm scared that still the Democrats are making nice with a tyrant.

I'm scared that the Democrats refuse to still call this president what he is: incompetent, a war criminal, a man unworthy of his job, a man who has announced to the world that he is above the law.

I'm scared that the American people see little or no leadership from the Democratic Party. This may be my number one fear.

I'm scared that the tyrant isn't named Saddem Hussein. The tyrant is named George W. Bush.

I'm scared that the New York Times withheld from the American people information that may have affected the outcome of the election.

I'm scared that we put political hacks into jobs at FEMA and the political class turns a blind eye. I'm talking to you, Joe Lieberman.

I'm scared that our children are not being properly educated.

I'm scared that many Americans may freeze this winter because they will not be able to pay for home heating oil.

I'm scared that our troops in Iraq still don't have the proper body armor.

I'm scared that Mr. Alito may waltz onto the SCOTUS because the Democrats still refuse to have a facedown with our unelected president.

I'm scared that 46 million Americans go without health insurance and access to basic healthcare.

I'm scared that politicians from both parties refuse to level with the American people.

I'm scared that the American Taliban are running our government.

Am I scared of George Bush--you bet. I'm scared of cowards masquerading as Top Gun heroes conning, deceiving and scamming the American people.

But Mr. Bush, I'm not scared of creepy Al Queda monsters lurking in the shadows.

I'm really scared of unelected presidents though.

Friends, forgive me, but I'm back in 2000 again.

Great stuff, but what's imoportant is not how you feel, but how you respond to those feelings.

Some who are afraid cower in a corner, offering nothing to overcome the source of that fear.

Others, like yourself, feel the fear and then use that emotion to take action -- to take a stand.

We need more Dems like that. We need more like you. Thank you.

It kindof sums up how many likely feel right now.

Not me personally. I am OUTRAGED, as opposed to afraid of any of this. But I am certain that the word "fear" is the right choice for many.

Act for Change has a petition demandnig an investigation...pass it on!

Smintheus has now posted three diaries on Operation Flabbergasted:

Part I - Let's Watergate Bush

This cannot stand. In ordering the NSA to spy secretly on America, George Bush has overturned United States Signals Intelligence Directive 18, which prohibits domestic spying by NSA; violated the federal act which created the FISA court to oversee covert domestic investigations; and trampled upon the Fourth Amendment guarantee against warrantless searches. It cannot stand for a day, much less a month while Congress is in recess.

Friday, when Sen. Specter said he'd make investigating the allegations a top priority in January, it was barely possible to pretend that they might be false. But by Saturday's radio address, when Bush defended his policy and insisted it would continue, we had entered a full-blown constitutional crisis. George Bush would love for Congress to back down from a fight next week, to go home grumbling "Wait until next year."

Operation Flabbergasted:  We cannot let that happen. We have to ensure that by Monday, all hell has broken loose in D.C.

Part II - A Nation of Laws, Not Men

Part III - Take Back Your Country
