Subject: RE: BS: Daniel Ellsberg: 'A Coup Has Occurred'
Uh, debatable in what way CarolC?

The first is debatable because there are many unresolved voter fraud issues, so we really have no idea who won the popular vote in the last presidential election.

The second point, I must take back what I said. I misread and thought it said proponents of the war, rather than opponents of the war. So I revise my response thusly...

As regards the coup idea, it's a bit of a no go... ...And the recent Congress elections were hardly a home run for opponents of the war, were they?

In what way does this support your argument? Since the people were voting in the last congressional elections for an end to the Iraq war, and since the Congress is not delivering on that, I think this point supports the coup idea.
