Obama Doesn't Take From "Special Interests?" He's Not correct

The Senate Caves on FISA. Will The House Stand or Fold?
(8 comments) The Senate shows itself to be spineless. Will the House uphold The Constitution against the invasion of American's Privacy or fold? This is the million-dollar question.

Senate Caves Again, This time on FISA!
(7 comments) Talk about a turnaround, a vote later today will give the Senate's stamp of approval on everything President Bush wanted. The vote was 69-29 with Clinton and Graham not voting.

Government for the Wealthy, Without a Doubt. Here is Proof Positive!
(1 comments) Here is an exchange between Sen.Bernie Sanders and Jim Nussel of the Budget Office on giving breaks to our wealthiest families and screwing the poor.

A Gravel/Nader Ticket? You Say You Want A Revolution?
(13 comments) You want real change or another corporate President? Don't fall for what the Democrats propose. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.

Monday, February 11, 2008
Right or Left? It's All a Huge Game to Keep Us Occupied
(4 comments) Conservative or Liberal? It doesn't matter a whit.This is all just to obfuscate what this all really about, the demise of the middle-class.

Friday, February 8, 2008
The Stakes Are Too High to Bluff in This Game; It's the Future of This Republic We Are Betting On.
There are deeper issue than "Change". If we are to be a free republic, we must repeal some of the "Changes" the Bush Administration has invoked.

Wednesday, February 6, 2008
Senator Obama, Rhetoric is Not Enough!
(8 comments) The American people are a wounded people and they are grasping at straws to get some logic and compassion back into the White House. They won't settle for continued conflict in Iraq and corporate control of our government.

Wednesday, February 6, 2008
Vote For the Candidate of Their Choice
(1 comments) It won't be the person of our choice mind you, it be the one that has managed to be on the "right" side of all the issues, and the one that has managed to avoid the ire of the Mainstream Media.

Realism; The Third Rail of American Politics
The term "Progressive" is the latest classification to be adopted by the corporatists. Hillary Clinton absolutely floored me when she stood up at the Yearly Kos and described herself as a Progressive.

Sunday, February 3, 2008
Senator Mike Gravel Will Be On Liberalpro RadioTonight
(3 comments) I have been talking to the Gravel Campaign people and Senator Mike Gravel will be appearing on Liberalpro Radio tonight.

Saturday, February 2, 2008
Don't Ask Me to Change My Values for Obama or Clinton
(10 comments) The way that the powers that run this country expect us to have "convertible values" and change them to support the one that is in first place is amazing. It's not trendy to have values that can't be reverse engineered to fit the circumstances we find ourselves in.

Friday, February 1, 2008
Move-On Has Gone Mainstream by Supporting Obama
(3 comments) Obama openly takes money from the very industries and corporations that have been at the heart of this country's change from a representative Republic to a corporate oligarchy.

Thursday, January 31, 2008
Why Supporting Sen. Gravel's Right to be Heard is Important
(12 comments) We must keep Senator Mike Gravel in this race. We need to make it known that we want him included in future debates. The corporate media should not have the last word on which candidates we should be allowed to hear.

Thursday, January 31, 2008
Move-On, Move Over, Mikes Moving In
(1 comments) How can they justify supporting the two candidates that receive more corporate donations than any Republican candidate? They forgot that there is a catch to their so-called "progressive" agenda; the still active participation of Senator Mike Gravel.

Wednesday, January 30, 2008
With Edwards Pulling Out, Mike Gravel is the Only One. Maybe it's His Time!
(11 comments) Supporting Mike Gravel is the only real choice that we can make. The thought of him becoming a player in the political arena would send a message to corporate America that we are not defeated.

Wednesday, January 30, 2008
Are Some Laws Only Enforcible at Certain Times?
(4 comments) Is there a special "season" where lawmakers only obey the laws they like or enforce the laws that others break? Is the law only the law for some of us and not for others? Is there a form somewhere that I can sign that will allow me to only obey the laws that I approve of?

Tuesday, January 29, 2008
Progressives Need to Write for Different Audiences
(8 comments) Our natural allies are the Unions and the environmental groups. I'm not talking about the leadership of the Unions; I'm talking about the rank and file members that have been more than disillusioned with their corporate controlled leadership.

Monday, January 28, 2008
BREAKING NEWS; Stop a Vote of Cloture on the FISA Bill in The Senate Now!
(1 comments) If the Senate votes for cloture, this will effectively stop Sen. Dodd from filibustering the bill by limiting the debate to 30 hours. We must write to our elected officials and demand no vote of cloture and allow Sen. Dodd to attempt to stop this assault on our basic rights under our Constitution.

Sunday, January 27, 2008
Everything You Wanted to Know About Which Corporations Fund Which Candidates
(4 comments) Unless you believe that people can take money from corporations and give them nothing in return, you must also wonder why the corporations continue to give money to politicians.

Saturday, January 26, 2008
Edwards Lost, Now Where Do I Go?
(17 comments) This gives me a clear signal that the Democratic Party, once again, is not the party that represents the way that I think politically.

Friday, January 25, 2008
You Want The Truth? You Can't Handle The Truth!
(6 comments) If not wanting to uncover the truth is the reason for not asking the difficult questions, than we are acting in a manner inconsistent and incompatible in maintaining any type of democracy in our nation.

Thursday, January 24, 2008
Is This President Above The Law? A Real Question to The Senate.
(10 comments) Compared to what President George W. Bush has lied about, the Clinton deception hardly warrants a footnote in the history books, yet we all wait to see if the very same standards that applied to Clinton will be applied to Bush.

Sunday, January 20, 2008
Remember MLK by Signing A Petition Against the War on Greed
MLK was a man like no other, he had his failings as we all do, but he managed to unite a cross-section of people to do what was necessary and right. He is still missed and we shall always honor him.

Saturday, January 19, 2008
Edwards Looks Like A Winner in South Carolina!
(9 comments) From the welcome he got here in Greenville, South Carolina, Edwards seems to have caught a second wind. He seemed energized by the audience. He's thinner than when I last saw him in 2004, but there is more emotional substance there. I think that this Primary fight on his home turf could be the turning point for him.

Thursday, January 17, 2008
Our Government is Lying to Us/Question Authority!
(2 comments) So what do we do about it? We already are doing something about it. There is an undercurrent in this country. Can you feel it?

Thursday, January 17, 2008
Support Rangel and Reintroduce The Draft!
(22 comments) This could be the straw that breaks the camel's back. Rangel see's it this way and I do too. Could you imagine the chickenhawks sending their sons and now daughters to fight in Iraq for a failed US policy that they embrace?

Tuesday, January 15, 2008
This Presidential Race is Not "Survivor-America" Then Again, Maybe it Is
It's entertainment, not reality. The trouble with this line of thinking is that it is reality. Just ask the hundreds of thousands of soldiers that either committed suicide after coming home from the "Global War on Terror" or the ones that can't walk, or run or make love anymore.

Monday, January 14, 2008
The Issues the Candidates Won't Touch (Part II)
(2 comments) This is the second part of the things that candidates will never talk about. Let's get right to it.

Wednesday, January 9, 2008
The Issues The Candidates Won't Touch (Part I)
(29 comments) I believe it is important not to overlook these issues. This may be our only opportunity to get the right person for the job of President before we lose our representative republic forever.

Saturday, January 5, 2008
The Two Debates Tonight Were Eye-Openers: Republicans Can't Even Get Along With Each Other!
(15 comments) On the Republican side, there were total mean-spirited jabs at each other that portrayed the candidates to be more like a crowd of cat-callers than Presidential candidates.

Friday, January 4, 2008
The Lost Art of "Critical Thinking"
(3 comments) If people don't take the time to understand what the issues of the day are, you will never know which issues have been excluded from the coverage of the news.

Friday, January 4, 2008
Things Most People Would Rather not Know
(8 comments) When is this country going to understand that we will never "win the hearts and minds" of those that oppose us through military force?

Sunday, December 23, 2007
"Get Out Of Our House!" An Idea Whose Time Has Come!
(2 comments) There is an organization called "Get Out Of Our House" (GOOH pronounced "GO") that is trying to bring ordinary folks into the House of Representatives and unseat all 435 members of the House.

Saturday, December 22, 2007
"The Great Awakening" of the American People
(21 comments) It's not Kuchinich that have attracted the people, its Paul. The truth is that during this "Great Awakening" the people of this country have heard, and are listening to him. He is speaking truth to power, and for a myriad of reasons, he is catching on like no other candidate I have ever seen in my lifetime, that includes John Fitzgerald Kennedy.

Friday, December 21, 2007
Let's End This Two-Party System!
(3 comments) We sit silently watching C-Span and root for "our" side, but when the roll call is made we see a lopsided vote, and the most virulent speakers cave-in and vote for bills authorizing the use of force, declaring another nation's military a "terrorist" organization, authorizing more war funds, and creating a new bureaucracy like The Department of Homeland Security that does nothing but gobble up taxpayer's money.

Thursday, December 20, 2007
Kosovo Could Spark a US-Russian Military Confrontation
(12 comments) The Soviets see the situation in Kosovo as a way to show the world that they are again a force to be reckoned with in the world. Stratfor predicts that Russia could launch a light military operation to keep Kosovo from gaining independence.

Wednesday, December 19, 2007
Democrats Fold on Iraq Funding Again!
(7 comments) Again the Democrats in Congress failed to stop the funding for Iraq or to get a timetable in the measure, failing in a vote of 70-25 to fund the war without restrictions. The measure was overturned with the help of 21 Democrats.

Tuesday, December 18, 2007
America! Remember this: "Fear is the Mindkiller"
(5 comments) Fear is at the very core of this administration's policies. Since 9/11 we have been bombarded with messages of fear. Every time this nation's alert status goes up, George W. Bush's popularity rating rises 3 or 4%. It is no wonder that we were in "alert status orange" prior to the 2004 election.

Saturday, December 15, 2007
Congress Shows It's "Backbone" Again! Progressives Need to Stand-Up!
(12 comments) Meanwhile, the Progressives in the Democratic Party are supposed to sit on their hands until hell freezes over. While the Mainstream Media casts us as the "fringe" element of the party, we know better. Progressives are the mainstay of the Democratic Party, we are not going away.

Thursday, December 13, 2007
What Does "National Security" Really Mean? Depends on Who You Talk To.
I hate to kick a dead horse but I don't believe the horse is really dead yet. Bush is still a dangerous man. The Republicans have learned nothing from his two nation-damaging tours in office. It appears that most of the Democrats have learned less.

Sunday, December 9, 2007
Fundamentalist Christians and the War on Islam
(4 comments) This article is about religion and I bring the war and the government into this because without the Christian right, George Bush and his administration could have never pulled off what they did. Without the church-going religious folks that make up much of middle America.

Thursday, December 6, 2007
The Candidates: Its not Just What Comes Out of Their Mouths, Its What Goes into Them Too
(1 comments) How fortunate for the American people that we are informed of the epicurean delights to be found on the battleground for the White House. Do you feel privileged? I don't. How asinine is this? America is faced with almost every conceivable problem imaginable, and we get the candidates food intake report.

Wednesday, December 5, 2007
Republicans and Democrats have Become Obsolete
(5 comments) The two main political parties should be disbanded, they are irrelevant. Most Americans that don't make their living in politics see no great difference between the Democrats and the Republicans. The issues that separate them no longer apply.

Tuesday, December 4, 2007
Katie Couric; Welcome to Journalism 101
(4 comments) The story doesn't end when you sign off.I don't want to "school" you in "Journalism 101", but apparently you have nobody where you work that will tell you "what time it is". Well I will do it for you; it's time to stop being the voice of the teleprompter and start being a journalist.

Revolution by Any Other Name...
(3 comments) The bottom line must be realized as two separate and distinct ideas. The corporatist's understand that it embodies the health and economic stability of their many enterprises. As far as the American people are concerned, the bottom line is something else entirely. It comprises the freedoms that we are willing to forfeit by allowing corporations to operate outside the rule of law.

The Political Issue that Nobody Wants to Talk About
(11 comments) We haven't had meaningful campaign finance reform enacted by the Federal government ever. The corporate lobbies and the "bundlers" have consistently put their interests ahead of the people in this nation for decades. This is probably the single most important reason why we have not seen honesty and transparency in political dealings within the United States.

Wednesday, November 28, 2007
Just Some Thoughts on The Democratic Slate
(2 comments) She has consistently voted for all funding for the war, she has yet to voice a dissenting remark about the Patriot Act, The FISA fiasco, or the Warner Defense Bill and the Revamped Insurrection Act or any of those nefarious pieces of legislation that have undermined our Constitution.

Monday, November 26, 2007
Beyond Treason; The Call for A Congression Investigation
(28 comments) It is against the U.N. Charter to use weapons of mass destruction and that's exactly what we are doing. Not only on the so-called "enemy", but on our own troops that feel the effects of "Fallout". Yes, you read me right, fallout. This is exactly the same result of a "Dirty Bomb" that the U.S. Government keeps threatening the people of this nation might happen if a "terrorist" explodes radioactive material with a bomb.

Sunday, November 25, 2007
The Real "Latest in Sunday Talk"
(1 comments) Who cares about Iraq, only one GI is dying per day and only 364 Iraqi civilians were killed last week. Isn't that great news? The violence is down to where it was in September of 2006! Man, with numbers like that we could stay indefinitely and continue to spend ourselves back to the Bronze Age!

Saturday, November 24, 2007
John Edwards Needs to Speak Out on Iran Now!
(7 comments) The Democrats, while mentioning the folly of Bush's foreign policy, remain in lockstep with the Neo-Cons when discussing the "threat" that Iran poses to America and their neighbors in the region. The so-called "top tier" candidates have refused to take the use of force against Iran "off the table".

Monday, November 19, 2007
Sorry Hillary, You Don't Make the Grade
(1 comments) C'mon Hillary, while you make an imposing figure up on the stage with your icy stares and your searing wit, the Republican Party will make mince-meat out of your poorly crafted statements. Nobody can be all things to all people, but yet you try to keep everyone happy telling everyone that will listen, exactly what they want to hear.

Monday, November 19, 2007
Nobody said that Saving this Nation Would be Easy
(1 comments) Students of history will know that we have been in bad straights before and America has always found itself back to the center. The biggest mistake that we made was not dismantling the Military-Industrial Complex after the Vietnam War or after the Soviet Union fell apart.

Friday, November 16, 2007
Did America Win at Last Nights Debate?
(11 comments) Isn't it time that America had some fresh air for a change? Hillary Clinton is, like her husband that she learned the trade from, a consummate politician that will bring us down the road to more saber-rattling and "free-trade" agreements.

Wednesday, November 14, 2007
Maybe There is a Conspiracy
He also goes on to say that the Ford Foundation, the Mellon Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation and all the other big foundations were working to control the American Educational system to "revise" history.

Friday, November 9, 2007
Democrats and the Fear Factor
(3 comments) Time and time again the Democrats sabotage their own agenda by responding to every criticism that they are "pandering to the left-wing fringe". It's time that they realized that this nation has drifted so far to the right in its actions and rhetoric that what was once the center finds itself squarely on the left.

Monday, November 5, 2007
The "War on Terror" brought to you by Corporate America
(6 comments) We were raised to believe that capitalism is the life-blood of this country. To suggest that this very same capitalism is killing our right to be informed citizen's with the right to choose our own leaders sounds too much like a Marxist diatribe, even if it is the truth.

Monday, October 29, 2007
America is Out of Time, We Need A new Strategy
(25 comments) The next step is the logical step and that is civil disobedience. When 10,000 people sit down at the entrance of Penn Station, or 100,000 people block the entrances of the Capitol building, or 20,000 people block the entrances of the stock exchange, the media will take notice.

Sunday, October 28, 2007
"Collateral Damage?" You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet!
(6 comments) They trusted the military when they took ships after World War II and ringed Bikini Atoll in the pacific and the men were made to come to the decks of the flotilla and given goggles so they could watch an explosion of an atomic bomb not five miles away. My father, a Marine that had fought in Okinawa and was in the occupation of Japan was there. He died of cancer at 59 that had ravaged his body.

Saturday, October 27, 2007
Come to Jonesboro or to a Demonstration Near youToday
(1 comments) These people will never trust the US, and will always look at us as a very foreign power occupying them. We are from different religions and our culture is not theirs. They will never embrace us as liberators after we have savaged their country.

Saturday, October 27, 2007
Jonesboro Peace Rally
(3 comments) A Vet who was exposed to depleted uranium told us that the Army said it was "so safe, you could sprinkle it on your breakfast cereal"

Friday, October 26, 2007
What the Media Won't Tell You: The Military is supporting Anti-War candidates
(1 comments) Money is going from military members to ant-war candidates. What does that say to the American people?

Tuesday, October 23, 2007
Sieg Heil! To The Satanic Majesty: Bush!
(20 comments) George Bush is the devil incarnate. If the fundamentalist Christians need the Anti-Christ to hail in the Rapture, they've got him. This is the most evil, freedom hating, power seeking individual that has ever lived in the White House.

Sunday, October 21, 2007
"Commonsense" and Our Two Never-Ending Wars
(10 comments) Now, if I told you that almost 50% of the Unites States tax receipts went to military spending, would you think me a liar? Well I would be, because it's more than 50%.

Saturday, October 20, 2007
Is the Progressive "Blogosphere" Bought by the Clinton Campaign?
(1 comments) This article claims that some bloggers received a "fellowship" from the Center for Independent Media (CIM), This fellowship provides $4,500.00 every three months and is renewable. If this is true, I'm sure that there are plenty of bloggers out there that are spewing Hillary's corporate agenda for the almighty dollar.

Thursday, October 18, 2007
Write Your Congressman. Right.
(3 comments) You can write your Congressman until your fingers are bleeding and your tongue is crimson from paper cuts from licking the envelopes but it won't do any good. You can call these people, write to them, and send a video if that what floats your boat, and it still won't do any good. These people, in case you haven't noticed, are not going to do anything!

Tuesday, October 16, 2007
Everything Starts with You
(9 comments) It seems as if Americans have lost their moral compass and feel that the sainted Al Gore will lead us back from certain doom, and the tone of these pleadings remains the same; "Please reconsider and save America".

Monday, October 15, 2007
Ron Paul Captures the Power of the "Blogosphere"
(27 comments) Ron Paul seems to have struck a nerve in the vast blogosphere where he has gotten two thirds of his contributions from. His strict constitutionalist stand, after the savagery that the Bush Administration subjected the Constitution to, seems to have endeared him to Independents, Republicans and even Democrats that yearn for someone that can restore the basis of our representative republic.

Thursday, October 11, 2007
Corporate Donations are Now Favoring the Democrats
(2 comments) Think that the Democrats will change things? Think again. Looking at who's on the corporate payroll can take the wind from your sails.

Wednesday, October 10, 2007
Congress Proposes that Bush gets a Do-Over and they will Forgive and Forget the Spying on American Citizens
Could you see Congress telling Nixon that if he admits to the break-in at Watergate and promises he won't do it again, then they will not hold him accountable? Could you imagine the media's reaction if they told Clinton to leave the girls alone, admit you copped some sex and we won't prosecute you and stop the impeachment proceedings?

Tuesday, October 9, 2007
The Media Has Failed the American People!
(15 comments) The underpinnings of a true democracy is the free flow of information and the transparency of government. We have no free flow of information and the government shrouds itself in secrecy.

Monday, October 8, 2007
Americans No Longer Question Authority
(5 comments) We should be asking ourselves if this government really needs the power that we seem to have ceded to them. We should be asking if the government really needs the authority to monitor our phone conversations, our e-mails and our mail. We should also be concerned about the laws that have been passed that require every citizen to have a national ID card.

US Used Torture on Detainees; New York Times
(1 comments) NY Times exposes torture.

Wednesday, October 3, 2007
America is Under Attack from Within!
(5 comments) Meanwhile Bill Kristof and the demonizers on FOX TV spread misinformation at the speed of light while the other networks soft-shoe it so they won't antagonize their corporate sponsors, the average American that doesn't read liberal/progressive websites believes that Iran is where Satan reigns supreme.

Tuesday, October 2, 2007
Use Economic Sanctions Against Our Own Government
(3 comments) We can stop the economy by buying second hand products including refurbished appliances, automobiles and other products that will cause the government to re-think their world policies by sinking the profits of those that support them.

Sunday, September 30, 2007
NY Times Reports that Christian Conservatives Want Their Own Party
(6 comments) This would be great, the Republicans would be as split as the Democrats. This would make a fourth party stronger than ever!

Saturday, September 29, 2007
America is Nearing Dictatorship. The Truth Hurts.
(1 comments) We are caught between a government that is intent on spinning a web of deceit, and a population that has grown weary of the lies and distortions. We are headed towards a confrontation that we haven't seen since the Vietnam debacle.

Friday, September 28, 2007
Bush Lies Again!
(1 comments) Another lie, another 160 Billion Dollars and countless lives.

Wednesday, September 26, 2007
Book Review: RED ZONE BLUES by Pepe Escobar
"Iran of course can be very persuasive, holding up some tasty cards up its sleeve- such as hard-earned intelligence directly implicating the Saudis in training the Sunni Arab muqawama (resistance) in Iraq on explosive form penetrators (EFP'S), which the Pentagon foolishly insists come from Iran. Everyone in Iraq knows it is operatives from "axis of fear" allies Saudi Arabia and Egypt.

Wednesday, September 26, 2007
We Need Americans to Get to Work!
(1 comments) We need people that will knock on doors and get petitions signed. Get off the recliner and do something for yourself. Meet your neighbors and tell them of your concerns. They'll sign the petition to get rid of you, maybe you'll find a kindred spirit that wants to pitch in. We are not counting on corporate money to do this. We are counting on you.

Monday, September 24, 2007
A Major Strike and a Visit from President Ahmadinejad of Iran,
(3 comments) The first major Union strike in many years and a visit by Pres. Ahmadinejad of Iran to Columbia.

Friday, September 21, 2007
The Good General did Indeed Betray Us!
(2 comments) Tyranny can be described in the vote against the Move-On ad in which the Senate censored Move-On. That of course in all actuality means nothing in fact. The ad was seen and no matter how hard the puppets in the Senate try, the ad rang true with the American people. The good General DID betray us!

Thursday, September 20, 2007
Contempt of Congress; About Time!
What is now required is for the House to pass this contempt of Congress citation and pursue legal action against the White House and Harriet Miers for their failure to meet the requirements of the subpoenas. Hopefully this contempt of Congress resolution will soon have a vote on the floor of the House. I am not prepared to allow this administration to operate above the law.

Wednesday, September 19, 2007
A Most Important Time in American History
The demonstration in Washington on the 15th was just the start. The American people must keep the pressure on Congress and this administration to do what is necessary to bring some semblance of democracy back to our nation.

The Story That Never Was: The "Silencing" of the B-52 "Whistleblowers"
(4 comments) Be careful of what you write about. Some of these hoaxes are designed to make some of us look like idiots.

Thursday, September 13, 2007
Follow the Money (Who Owns Your Govenment?)
(3 comments) First in a series of who gives what to whom. By the People, for the People and of the people is wishful thinking. Until we change how we elect our politicians, we will never have representation.

Wednesday, September 12, 2007
A War Casualty: The Truth
(1 comments) Reality hasn't been an icon of the Bush Administration since the beginning, but actually witnessing a four-star General rearranging facts and figures to paint an assessment of an occupation that is tenuous at best, into something it is not, reminds me of old Superman comics and the "Bizarro World" issues.

Tuesday, September 11, 2007
Tired and Disgusted, Stop the Lies!
(1 comments) Many of us seem to have accepted the report in its entirety, even though it answered nothing and it proposed nothing. The "draw-down" that the General referenced, is not a draw-down at all, it is merely the period in which the "surge" troops will be eligible for rotation, nothing more, nothing less.

Silence and Guilt, or The Courage of Our Convictions?
(1 comments) Some readers have asked "You want us to do something? What, pray tell, would you have us do that might conceivably work?" Well, you asked and I'm answering.

Friday, September 7, 2007
What's The "Truth" About Iran?
(2 comments) Is Iran helping us or hurting us in the fight against al Qaeda? It's fairly easy to figure this one out Mr. Bush.

Thursday, September 6, 2007
Why Aren't The Candidates Talking About Our Civil Liberties?
(6 comments) Everything is on the table but the loss of our Constitutional rights that have been savaged by the Bush Administration and Congress. Why won't anyone discuss it?

Wednesday, September 5, 2007
Don't Ask Jack to Help 'Cause he'll Turn the Other Ear
So what are you going to do on the 11th of September? I'm not doing anything. I'm not buying anything, writing anything, filling up my car or anything else. What are you doing on the 15th of September? I know where I'll be. I'll be in New York City at the rally to get us out of Iraq.

Tuesday, September 4, 2007
We See What They're Planning
(4 comments) So the way I see things, we are knee-deep in fecal matter. The banks are playing their games, the government is attempting to go to War with Iran and at the very same time carve out an empire in North America. Meanwhile, we won't know what hit us. Senators, Congress people, activists and everyday people won't know which end of what coin is up.

Three Thoughts for Labor Day
(1 comments) I have three things that you might want to mull over during this Labor Day. Just take an hour of your busy day.

Would You Give Your Life to Change America? I Would!
(12 comments) I'm sick to death of the "progressive" crybabies that believe America can't ever get better. As far as I'm concerned you're as bad as the slime that run this country.

This is a Movement People, Don't Ever Doubt it!
(8 comments) There will be a permanent display of the anti-war movement that the mainstream media can no longer ignore. This movement will be an in-your-face, do or die expression of disgust with this administration and with Congress and their do nothing attitude. If we accomplish nothing, at least we can show the rest of the world and this government that we won't blindly accept authority when the policies go against everything we believe

A Modest Propsal for Iraq

Newspapers are Creating Their Own Demise
(10 comments) Newspapers no longer engage in muck-racking or do they actually try to expose the "truth" to the American people. They bend over backwards to pacify their advertisers because their readership is declining. They won't even mention Kucinich or Gravel when taking about the Democratic candidates. Is it any wonder why readership is dropping?

CONGRESS: Nothing is "Off the Table"

Is America Doomed to Repeat History?
The American people are on a precipice that should they take just a few more steps, this nation will go into a free-fall that we may never recover from.

The History Channel's 9/11 Documetary, and Sen. Leahy's Subpoena
(53 comments) I have to admit that the History Channel did a job of trying to debunk many ideas about 9/11 but failed to answer my own questions. The most important things we should be concentrating on however is what happened AFTER 9/11. Why did the government declare war on the American people?

Nothing The Government Says Adds Up
(2 comments) Try to make sense of all of these "threats" and "threat-levels" that the government says we are under. The only ones I see killing people is our own government.

This is Your Life Bush
(6 comments) There are people that feel that this nation is too far over the brink to ever be brought back to a decent republic. They feel shame over everything that has happened, not only on your watch, even though that started it, but now they have looked at the nation with a critical eye and they really don't believe that this nation has ever stood for anything worthwhile.

Could This Be "The Second American Revolution"?

We Have No Unity, No Unity at All
(10 comments) Well in my view, unless we can at least decide to participate in a General Strike on September 11, 2007. We have no "movement" What we have is many people with their own opinions that don't want to work with anyone else. I'll just keep on writing. That's what I do.

Congress, The Debates, Progressives and "Bundling"
So what do the Republicans think of Bush and Cheney turning this country into a dictatorship? I can't believe that they all want to give up their jobs in the Senate and retire to their summer homes now that they turned the government over to a gang of Nazi's.

Truth to Power
(2 comments) In his lifetime he has always seen that the powerful get their way. This has been inbred into him. Along with power comes responsibility. His family is not a moral base that will center a man like Bush. His father during the Iran-Contra affair has made it very clear to George Jr. that the powerful can get away with murder.

This "Presidential Executive Order" is Grounds for Arrest

A New Bush "Executive Privilege" Theory
The old saying that "drastic times call for drastic measures" could not be as appropriate as they are now. These indeed are drastic times. The American people would have no problem with Congress using drastic measures.

Bill Kristol, the Worst Kind of Reactionary
(14 comments) This guy is dangerous. I don't understand how he is on talk show after talk show, and they never mention that he belongs to the radical right. They always introduce him as a "respected" journalist. Respected by whom, The Project for a New American Century?

How Many Tours in Iraq are Enough for a Soldier?

The Reason is Treason

(2 comments) The interests that this government is working for are its own best interests. Saying this, I'm including the Democrats. The Congress could have started an investigation of this war the day that the Democratic majority took their seats in Washington.

The American People Know What Time it Is!
Tonight I watched a re-run of "Law and Order, Criminal Intent" and Chris Noth was on the show. The character played by Vincent D'Onofrio asks him if he ever heard of The Patriot Act, Noth looks up and tells him "I read the original version, it was called 1984", So how 'bout them apples, George? Can you see what your country thinks of the crap your administration has shoved down the American People's throat.

The End of Political Parties?
(6 comments) The fact that he brought a giant kiss-off to the party of Lincoln, the party that gave us George W. Bush and Dick Cheney, warms my heart. The fact that he did not run to the pretenders for political backing, tells me that he realizes what many of us already know, that the Democrats are no catch either.

Ms. Rodriquez and Class Warfare; A Dime for a Dollar

A Letter to President Bush's Ex-Best Friend, President Putin
(2 comments) It's like the old movie where they say "pay no attention to that man behind the curtain!" and the curtain is pulled away by a little dog, and you see who the great wizard really is. Well in this case it would be Dick Cheney, the man who is now pretending to be the Vice-President of the United States.

We Must Stand Against This "New World Order"; The Threat is Real

Why I Was Happy Last Night
(5 comments) The Democrats that I saw on stage were LISTENING! They were listening to the American people. The reason they were listening to the American people is because they read the blogs. They read the articles that people like us write day after day.

Now We Can Bring Our Troops Home
(2 comments) Is there any integrity left anywhere anymore? People hear so many lies coming from the White House that they don't even bother to call anyone out on them anymore. It's getting to the point that more and more people get their news from the "Daily Show with Jon Stewart" than they do from CBS or NBC.

Prime-time Politics for the Masses
(4 comments) For every progressive politician out there, there are three or four politicians that go where the money is. For every progressive out there that believes we are going to win by being right, there are five or six slime balls supporting people that have all the money and can afford to buy air time.

Getting Away with Murder
(2 comments) While Big Oil and the Bush Administration dance with each other, the losers of this big game, the one that didn't even really know they were playing a game in the first place, will just go their own way. The Iraqi people, the poor Iraqi people that have never controlled their own oil, or made a profit off of their only big resource, will see this resource slip away once again.

Memorial Day and the Memories of Yesterday and Today
That is, unless the American people start demanding that the government rid itself from corporate control, and rescinds The Patriot Act, The Military Commission Act of 2006, The Insurrection Act and stop with this phony "War on Terror". The situation of the middle class is getting worse every year.

The Only Logical Way to Keep Our Democracy
(7 comments) I believe it's time that the Democrats learned a lesson in civics and the Republicans learned what one person; one vote means. The only way that we can accomplish our progressive/liberal goals is to hijack the Democratic Party.

So You Think I'm Crazy? Just Wait.
(1 comments) It's hard to live in this country with a chronic case of rage. What's harder is hearing idiot commentators on television telling the people of the nation bullshit propaganda that comes directly out of the Dick's office. You KNOW he is selling snake oil, yet people you talk to act as if everything is peachy.

Sunday Morning Talk
Sunday morning talk utterly disgusted me this morning. It seems that the new Republican mantra is "Let the Congress do the work of Congress, and quit trying to play "Gotcha" with the Republicans, and stop investigating and start legislating".

Review: Armed Madhouse by Greg Palast
(3 comments) Every single chapter left me numb. All of the things that I had taken for granted, things I thought I knew, were unceremoniously exploded before my very eyes, by the best explosive expert in the literary world. The one thing that kept running through my mind after reading the things he was writing (that were also backed up with facts and pictures), was why hasn't this been reported on by the media?

Venezuela is None of Our Business!
(7 comments) Any talk of socialism brings out George's alter ego. Just as in the comic books of my youth, the word socialism turns our President into Dubya-man. Yes Dubya-man, who came to Earth from a swollen belly, kowtows to the right with both knees, and who disguised as The President of The United States, fights a never-ending battle for wealth, indifference, and the Neo-con way.

The Two Faces of Rudy
He was a true maverick, unfortunately, his quest for higher political office has shaped Giuliani into what he is now, a candidate that is trying to capture the conservative right of his party. In the process, of trying to appeal to that conservative wing, he has discarded the Giuliani that thought for himself and used bipartisanship to advance the things he thought were right and not just politically expedient. Now he is a "po

Sunday With The Lamestream Media
(4 comments) What about the Democratic Underground and the Democratic Parties own website? How about the polls? When 73% of the people polled think we are running our country into the ground, it's not a left wing complaint anymore. When 59% of the people support the pullout that the Dems sponsored, it was many more people than the ones that are tuned into the left.

It Isn't All About the War
You don't need me to tell you what the score is. While this war rages and takes the focus off all of the backstabbing and throat-slitting that goes on in the marketplace, this Congress and the President and all of the Federal watchdog agencies we invented to keep the citizen from getting screwed all lie dormant.

The Republican Debate That Wasn't
McCain was a real cowboy. He showed his obvious love for Joe Lieberman. We didn't hear one word about defeat in Iraq from this man. In fact he told us twice, that if a bill came to him with pork barrel subsidies that he would veto that bill and make the person that put in the pork the most well-known man in Washington. Yes Sir, you won't mess with Sheriff McCain.

A Wake-Up Call To The Democrats
(1 comments) You have held a circus on Capitol Hill with your non-binding "timetable" for pullout of American Forces from Iraq that you all knew would be vetoed by this administration, yet you did it anyway. This was a political stunt and does nothing to change the facts of where we are at today.

Sunday Talk : Time to Scream!
(1 comments) It's not good for me to sit in front of the television and watch professional "spin doctors" make up their own versions of events that are making news. The main problem that I have is my inability to reach into the picture tube and grab some of these people by the throat and squeeze until they stop thrashing around.

Senator Mike Gravel isn't "Funny" at All
(2 comments) What does it take for people to understand that Mike Gravel is telling the truth and that he is the ONLY one that is telling the truth! What does it take for the American public to learn to think for themselves and not let people on the television tell them how to think?

Bush Tries to "Humiliate" Russia
The United States seems to believe that it is omnipotent. It seems to believe that its decisions are infallible. Bush said once that he looked into their "soul" of Vladimir Putin. I guess when he did that, he saw a patsy.

The Political Landscape is Changing

It's Not Just Left Against Right Anymore, It's About What IS Right
(5 comments) I recently wrote an article about the Bush administration and their attacks on our Constitutional Rights. One of the things that I mentioned is that we are all Americans Left and Right, and that as Americans, we are all in danger of permanently losing the rights and freedoms that we won in the War of Independence.

The Greatest Casualty of "The War on Terror"; Our Constitutional Rights
(2 comments) It is so easy to write about this criminal "unitary executive" administration. They beg to be outed. They actually hide very little. They urinate on the Constitution and the public media does nothing. When you read a book or see a movie about the Holocaust, just think about what our country has done in the name of "democracy" in the last decade.

Put Bush and Cheney On Trial for "Breaking" Our Army!
(6 comments) I spent 21 years in the Army. During that time I met some of the greatest people I have ever known. I also met the biggest morons that ever walked the face of the Earth. The Army is really like a microcosm of the civilian world, except in the Army, you get to know people on a really intimate basis.

The Democrats Now Want A Non-Binding Withdrawal. Do You Know Why?
(3 comments) The Post says: "The compromises may cost Democrats votes among antiwar liberals, but they hope to pick up some Republicans." No kidding. This just blatantly shows what constituency they are aiming for, and it's not the Liberal/Progressive camp. It never was except when they wanted to win the last election.

Bush: "almost" Human

These Old Men Are Getting Away With Murder!
(2 comments) Lets talk about two laws that really need a fresh view. Lets talk about that horrid ruling by the Nazi side of the Supreme Court. Why five old men who have never borne a child and never will, are deciding the fate of a law that should be a woman's prerogative is one of the flaws of our judicial system.

Death at Home; Death in Iraq: It still Hurts
(1 comments) It's a terrible thing when 32 people die in an unexpected way in a peaceful setting. The hurt doesn't dissipate however when it's in the middle of a war zone with trigger happy militias filled with hundreds of people like the guy at Virginia Tech. It hurts just as bad when you find out your father died trying to get to a food store in Baghdad

Just Give Us the News; We Will Decide What it Means
(3 comments) The MSM's most important function is to report the news, not to tell us what it all means. What is truth to some, could be construed as propaganda to another. Just report the facts, everything else is opinion.

No News is Real News
