This is a repost. I've received many requests to repost this.
______________________
I think it is fair to repost a video that hasn't been on DK for a few weeks. I think that we are at a different moment of time in this race than when I first posted it. This is a time when complacency will come back to bite us.
This race is about McCain. About the Bush-Cheney-Rumsfeld-Rice quartet of horror.
The Republican campaign is running on an agenda of fear-mongering, "POW POW POW", lies, Iraq, war, stealing the change mantra, suppressing the vote and disenfranchising as many of us as possible, screwing with voting machines, and lastly, doing everything they can to divide us in order to conquer.
So I thought we ought to steal "fear" in return!.
Why?
Because, unlike the Republicans, we actually have a lot to be afraid of!
I'm not just talking about how Dems have historically proven that there isn't an election they can't squander. We've been diagnosed with "Electoral Dysfunction Disorder" a long time ago.
And to prove this, I'm reposting the most bone-chilling 5-minute video about the war-mongering McCain out there. Halloween is as good a time as any to do this.
For those who would rather have the link, or wish to email it (this does need to go viral), here is the link:

Email it to anyone and everyone you know! Post it in every blog you can!
The video is old. The stats are outdated. But the message is clear!
The last count as I was writing this was 900,358 views. I really think it needs to be seen by ALL VOTERS!
And here is the video:
Warning for parents: Some of the images in the video may not be suitable for young children!
Here's a transcript of some of what what Scott Ritter had to say:
My concern is that we will use nuclear weopons to break the backbone of Iranian resistance, and it may not work. But what it will do is this: It will unleash the nuclear genie.

And if we use nuclear weapons, the genie ain't going back into the bottle, until an American city is taken out by an Islamic weapon in retaliation!
So tell me: You want to go to war with Iran? Pick your city! Pick your city! Tell me which one you want gone! Seattle, LA, Boston, New York, Miami... Pick one! 'Cause at least one's going! And that's something we should all think about before we march down this path of INSANITY!
