In another diary I posted as follows:
Why is every progressive blog not talking up Thom Hartmann's piece on Common Dreams about the BBC documentary "The Power of Nightmares" and demanding that it be shown in this country?

I was properly taken to task by Kagro X thus: "I don't know why every progressive blog is not talking about your particular favorite issue today. It could be that they're taking their cues from you. I notice you haven't written anything about it yourself."

Fair enough (barring some rather gratuitous sarcasm in the rest of Kagro X's post). So here is my first diary on Daily Kos, and with it I hope to show why I find it unconscionable that anyone who cares about our democracy will not pursue every available avenue to see that the Bush maladministration be blocked from governing -- between now and Inauguration Day if possible, and thereafter if it proves to be necessary. Excerpts from the Hartmann piece are below the fold.
