A Rebel Alliance Against the Evil Neocon Empire

Many thanks to Spyder for sending me the link to a very impressive article that made me want to jump out of my chair and shout "hooray!"

Thomas R. Eddlem begins his article, "Now Is the Time for a Left-Right Alliance: A rebel alliance already exists that could stop Bush administration attacks on the Constitution," by saying:

I'm currently a life member of the John Birch Society and formerly served on the staff of the organization for 13 years.

So why should any left-winger reading this care a fig about what I have to say?

Because of a conversation I had with another conservative magazine writer recently. In frustration at the unconstitutional excesses of the Bush administration, I blurted out to him: "The only people doing any good out there are the people at Air America." I expected to shock him with the statement, but his two-word reply shocked me: "And MoveOn.org."

We were both exaggerating for effect, but fact is, as my journalist friend continued, "We probably only disagree on, maybe, 25 percent of the issues." I'd have put the percentage a little higher, though I tacked an ending onto his sentence: "…and those issues aren't especially important right now."

Please read the entire piece, send it to every Republican you know, and urge them to join Eddlem in the new Rebel Alliance:

Down with the neocon Evil Empire! Long live the new Rebel Alliance!
