The time has come --" actually, it came a long time ago --" to say no! to it all. Throw all the bums out so we can start over.

::::::::

The time has come actually, it came a long time ago to say no to it all. All the killing of thousands of American troops and hundreds of thousands of turbaned, disposable souls at the behest of the malignant military-corporate-banking-congressional complex. No to the legalization of the big pharma ripoff that has placed the US 37th in the world in healthcare quality. To all the corrupt Congresspersons who vote themselves gold-plated healthcare plans and make profit on the market by not divulging the their privileged economic information. To the blatant refusal to correct these outrages, even though the Constitution explicitly says that Congress members shall be subject to exactly the same laws and legal obligations as every other citizen. To the mind-boggling hypocrisy of a president accepting a Nobel Peace Prize while waging three wars simultaneously while supporting an apartheid, militant, expansionist nation. The list goes on and on.

But no one, it seems even the otherwise enlightened people who write on this website understands that every single one of us, whether or not we have a penny in our pocket, has the power to end it all and start the USA all over again. It seems to occur to no one that the whole evil system will collapse if we stop voting for it. It's that simple. Just don't vote for either a Democrat or a Republican. Vote Green. Hell, vote Libertarian or, vote as I do, for your spouse. I once wrote my wife in for every office on the ballot. If the pigs don't get any votes, they will magically disappear. They will have no power at all! Then we can elect someone who actually lives by the laws of the land and has the interest of the people at heart. That's all there is to it. Stop listening to the argument that if you don't vote for Obama, the evil Republican will ruin the country. Wake up. The country is already ruined. But the Republican won't get in either if no one votes for him or her. Stop being a coward cowed by accusations of abandoning the "morally superior" Democrats. They are not morally superior, they are part of the problem. Hear ye, hear ye - Progressives, Regressives, Greens, Democrats, Republicans, Independents, Libertarians, Tea Partiers, everyone Revolt! Not violently, but passively. Throw the corrupt bums out!


 

My primary goal now is to persuade the PBS station in Minneapolis, that reaches 4 million homes, to carry the Amy Goodman Democracy Now! program. I was in Seattle to protest the arrest of Lt. Watada. I held a moveon.org showing of an anti-war (more...)
