Warren's "Green New Military" Proposal

Warren’s proposal to fight climate change by making the military more green is misguided and dangerous. 'We don’t have to choose between a green military and an effective one. My energy and climate resiliency plan will improve our service members’ readiness and safety, all while achieving cost savings for American taxpayers. Our military understands that, and it’s time our elected leaders did as well. Together, we can work with our military to fight climate change — and win.'

In my run for U.S. Senate against Utah's Orrin Hatch, I posted many progressive ideas and principles that I internalized over the years. I'm leaving that site up indefinitely, since it describes what I believe most members of our species truly (more...)

I'd like to put a "green Tomahawk" in a dark place that I won't mention, out of politeness and "political correctness" (aka bullshit).

Anyone supporting this lunatic is an enemy of mine, and I strongly support and advocate a "Jamal Khashoggi incident" for her.

As she is so clearly doing for the rest of Homo sapiens, after her unbounded lust for power.

Despair, betrayal of the citizens by using all the underhanded and evil gathered against us to undermine and destroy the Great Experiment.

She has shown her lack of bravery concerning the DNC cabal in the last Presidential race. I would not trust her capacity or lack of telling any truth to power. Not standing up (her and the rest of the neo liberal warmongers) to the powers to be that railroaded us into the current ongoing regime of transnational criminals was another nail in our coffins.

I stated a few years ago that I truly believed that it would be outside forces that would bring down the Criminal Empire if there was to be a Phoenix Rising in our futures. I still believe that the Karma coming our way from their actions will be swift and decisive within this decade. Bernie did not take a stance with all the evidence for all to see this charade of criminals and traitors to the US constitution and Bill of Rights. A more perfect union cannot be built from the bottom up, not when the Revolution has been hijacked, jailed and soon to be hanging from the lamppost we had hoped they would be hanging from for all to see.

The ghost of Paul Revere has been sighted riding the back alleys of the free exchanges on the internet, the spoken word between citizens and the look in their eyes or the pain in their hearts. Some say one lantern for the enemy by land has been seen, others have spotted two lanterns for the enemy by sea.

But when questioned on this confusion denotes there is no mistake, that the tyranny's power and their acquired henchmen come from within and from without our lands and seas. That light shining from shining sea to shining sea has long since set and the storm of oppression of the masses is raging across the world of mankind. The words from history assure the on coming future""..

"When the tyrant has disposed of foreign enemies by conquest or treaty, and there is nothing to fear from them, then he is always stirring up some war or other, in order that the people may require a leader." Plato (427-347 B.C.)

"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear." --Marcus Tullius Cicero 42B.C.

Poor Elizabeth - far worse than a common 'faux pas'!

I don't think she can tell a poopoo from a hole in the ground.

Does she think we want one lunatic replacing another in the White House? Warren will say anything she thinks the people want to hear. Dangerous, very dangerous.

"In his groundbreaking new book Bottom Up: Tapping the Power of the Connection Revolution, Rob Kall invites and eases us into in a much-needed meta-level shift -- a truly basic paradigmatic shift from top-down to bottom-up. He capably and imaginatively explores the differences between these ways of approaching life, clearly demonstrating that bottom-up allows us to flourish. His vision and his book are enriched by telling references to interviews which he has engaged in over the years with bottom-up researchers, theorists, activists, and dreamers in a variety of areas. Think about Rob's interviews. Read this revolutionary book. And take one step further into the bottom-up universe yourself. You will not regret it."

Bonnie Burstow, MD, author of Psychiatry and the Business of Madness and Radical Feminist Therapy, associate professor at the University of Toronto
