The Civil War that I have feared is not merely due to the campaign tactics of of Atwater or Rove or McCain advisors but the NEOCON military industrial agenda which does indeed have an exit stategy that is bolstered by their domestic spying, secret ppolice, homeland security, intelligence agency czar and legislation of Patiot Act #1 and #2. Their exit strategy is to complete the take over of the US and not allow any impedence of their plan by something so bottom feeding as a populace movement. Neocons feel emboldened by all their new tools, troops, laws and media control.
IF they actually activate a code RED for the country is still uncertain in my opinion.

The word Neocon is merely a kinder gentler sounding title rather than neo-fascists.

On a micro scale...
The tension that was nearly unbearable between my lower middle class neocon neighbors and myself which used to havea rather sparse exchange of ideology and opinions has moved into a new phase of total and complete non communication. This total silence by the now extremely "concerned" Republicans is a red flag.
When I say silence it does not include their rumors of slander which I have personally heard the GOP captain across the street describing people of different opinons as being "..he's insane, I mean it, I'm serious he's insane!"

It is the first step in dehumanizing people who are to be punished, imprisoned or executed beneath the banner of partiotism, religion and Pro Americanism.

We need a Civil War like a hole in the head, unfortunately the Neo Republicans have plans for both.
