A start. Fresh faces in new places. Hammer time.

            I believe Obama is a good man. I am very concerned at the starting lineup filing out from the locker room onto the field. Looks vaguely familiar. Rob requested names. Here are a few offers to start. Well connected is not a top ten prerequisite for the issues at hand. Unconnected in the contemporary usage I think is very good. Some of my suggestions may be nuts to you. So be it. I would argue most in positions Obama has filled already are exactly that. I offer mine not as any holy grail. There is no grail. I just want good honest people with good ideas and the cahones to serve, not lead. I want people who are first and foremost representative to their positions as servants to our constitution and the defense thereof. People who think and act in honor of that which they are given to protect. I feel like I am in a torn down funhouse and the laughing lady is not laughing anymore. I apologize to all of you who through my life of music have contributed to my country being stolen. Thomas Jefferson and Andrew Jackson would have me on their s*** list. No more. I sit here not idle. I take care of my family and I speak out. Caring for each other is hard work. I take not lightly that I have f’d up in my life. I pray for Barack. I never look to argue or toss vindictive. I just want us to be fair. To each other.  In my imperfect world I’d love to at least try these on:

 

R. Nader-EPA

B. Moyers-FCC

V. Bugliosi-Attorney General

R. Paul-Sec. of Treasury

Andrew Bacevich-Chief of Staff

C.Sheehan-Peace Corps

B. Pitt- HUD

P. Krugman-Comptroller General

J. Stiglitz-Dept of Commerce

Robert F. Kennedy Jr.-Sec. of Labor

  

     Lots more good ones out there. Some are on this site. Daily. Don’t laugh damn it. This is serious.

    

     Look into a child’s eyes. Think about tomorrow. Then tell me everything is hunky dory.

We can do this.

peace
