The People's Counter-Coup by Naomi Wolf

naomiwolf.org — It’s easy to look at the events of Election Day and draw the wrong conclusion. It’s tempting to conclude that what happened after a long cruel and repressive eight years is that our democracy simply worked once again and proved to be self-correcting. Easy to breathe a sigh of relief and turn back to cultivating our regular pursuits. Easy—but wrong.

  • JettaMan, on 11/18/2008, -1/+12She's either willfully ignorant or blissfully ignorant. The Democrats are the same, if not worse than, the Republican Party. This $700B swindle was backed by primarily Democrats. The housing crisis was caused primarily by Democrats like Barney Frank and Nancy Pelosi. Wolfe needs to wake up and stop fighting for our elites.
  • ckpac, on 11/18/2008, -1/+11Naomi is just another Rhodes Scholar "wolf in sheep's clothing". A "stealth coup" has indeed been achieved, and she is oblivious, due to her blind-in-one-eye view of reality.
  • JKap, on 11/18/2008, -1/+10I don't get her. She seems to insinuate that Mr. Obama won't do terrible things to our "democracy" like the "Republican" Bad Guys have done. I just fret to think of what Mr. Obama will do to our republic.
  • muckemuck, on 11/18/2008, -1/+7Let's see how fast the Democrats undue all the things that the evil Republicans have done... last I heard the Democrats supported most of the stuff that took away our privacy and freedom.

    Don't believe me? Go listen to Congressman David Price go on about how great the Patriot Act and FISA are.. take a look at how Obama voted..... then listen to Naomi Wolf try to say that the evil Republicans are to blame for crap like that.

    Wolf needs to wake up and realize that BOTH parties are working against us.
  • sheeplescareme, on 11/18/2008, -2/+7i like naomi. i just wish she would open her eyes and see beyond the false right-left paradigm.
  • TreeTops8, on 12/01/2008, -0/+1There have been news stories of which Executive Orders Obama plans to overturn on Jan 20th. Supposedly there are 200 or so that they are considering. However, the half-dozen mentioned in the article were trivial items. Why doesn't Obama restore Posse Comitatis, for instance? Gee, do you think that will make his short list? Somehow I doubt it. Maybe Naomi will notice......
