Google the book, this is really worth the read:
Also if I could, let me talk about disappointment some:
Gore would have been the “Jesus” to Clinton's “John the Baptist” to me. There, they can tear me up now, but I feel many people have not taken the time to think what might have been. I lived it, not to see it torn away by the lies “they” always say, but by lies told by someone I loved who had always told the truth. So you could say, when I think of what we lost because of third party ego, the banking crap seems small.
But if we get rid of the GOP, we could get a guy like this someday.
Well it is obvious why the trolls would want this post to die a silent death. The information clearly delivered supports the movements to end corruption and regain government. I will need to get the book now as it looks to be very good. The information I read to this point mirrors a lot of the information that good people have been sharing here. Definitely needs a close look.
This guy has been talking about these things along time, thanks for stopping by.
Thanks for sticking with the advertizing of good material. This is why we are all needed to do our best because there is so much that needs to be seen and shared and then there is all of the bullshit from the corrupt and their trolls that must be cleared away. It can take time for good stuff to be picked-up and then shared.
I plan to go through his book and post, I figure there are a lot of good ideals in there, got a medical seminar coming up to prep for but it's all good.
Well you know your needs - so I don't need to tell you to pay attention in school. {:-])
that's right or they will run all over ya
Sorry been busy - I promise to have a look.
looks like the trolls have been through here, I see their downvotes, no matter truth is strong
They have realized this post is not going to fade all by itself I expect them to start getting nasty.
Morning factsrfun.
this is twenty minutes nice setup for the bigger pieces later in the week, people will get a chance to see it thanks to (all of) you guys help
We are here to share and circulate. You placed the info. Thank you.
midday bomp where I'm at
This day is cruising along so quickly. Lots of activity.
Ah...well. Fuck 'em. We can play peek-a-boo.
morning don't forget Fontline this week and next
the trolls ingone what they don't want you to see
That's a good point. They don't want to bump this thread. So, I will. LOL.
thanks BW, I have started to post about stuff in the book, read the free part, then parted with 3.25 for the rest, hope I can squezze my money's worth out :)
You keep posting. I'll keep bumping.
starting to bring out the trolls now, not you down below
LOL. Just do your thing.
Anybody know how to get rid of the white space?
nary a nibble
This is OSW. Take your Pro Duopoly bullshit somewhere else.
We are for change.
Didn't know you were the official spokesperson, guess when you have no positions (that you can let others know about) "banning" the truth is your only option, so you don't like Reich either, guess you're pissed he's been writing about this stuff for over thirty years, must piss a GOP lover like yourself right off.
I like the first part of your post, the rah rah yay Dems nonsense at the bottom is the real dissapointment.
And why wait until 2016? Why not now?
You can't be serious when you say, "why not now?" You just can't. Not unless you want a Republican victory.
At some point people have to make a stand. No one wanted to do it in 2000. And in 2004 the only fool the Dems would vote for was that moron Kerry.
2008 we got stuck with Obama, everyone wanted Hillary. Now its 2012, and everyone is still fine with choosing between two horrendous choices. The parties are corrupted beyond saving. And they should be, theyve been around 100 years. Its amazing the people havent demanded anything else.
Yes, now how do we go about it?
Expose the hypocrisy of the parties. Expose the apathy of the people. Challenge them to make a stand. Volunteer for the Green Party or the Progressive Party, or other independent candidates.
Unfortunately, the TV is the only thing the people trust, and the guys that get the big campaign bribes are the ones that get the commercials.
Exactly, and until November we're still stuck with the two party system, so wat are we going to do - let the Repubs. win and then smash us?
The "repubs" arent going to win anything. Again, if you cant see that this election is an obama shoe in, then you dont campaign much. I do. Its a lock.
The senate will prob stay D, and House R. Neither one of them is capable of doing anything decent anyways, as proven by their oil subsidy vote in the Senate.
Well the 99% could change that whole equation if they occupied the voting booth. What have we had in recent elections, about a 40% turnout? Hell, we could change everything in the next election if people actually voted. It's pretty hard to imagine getting people who can't be bothered to vote to actually rebel.
Apathy in all it's forms is the enemy.
In my campaigning the main reason that 60% dont vote is because "they're all crooks"....And they are right.
We grasp at straws to find differences int eh parties. And there are some. But when you look at the criminal nature of both, to an outsider, endorsing either is insanity.
While I was campaigning for Obama it was not the pro Dem or the pro R people, with the exuberant excitement for a man that had done very little, or the R's hate for a man that has done nothing....these responses were typical and short sighted.
It was the people who had such a deep understand of the legislation that the parties pass, the massive level of corruption happening regardless of party....it was these people that interested me the most.
The masses are STARVING for something that actually represents them, that isnt run by corporations. That isnt a bunch of rich assholes. They are STARVING for it. And that is why OWS was so huge at the beginning.
But after the media started picking all the nuts out, and all the Obama lovers, then it started to die. We tried to warn people of this, and I even spoke at a few GA on the topic specifically.
Something new. Something that doesnt function with the dogma of the two current super parties. They are slow, ineffective and ineffcient.
They have rigged the system against outsiders, making it very difficult to get anything going. Hell, Nader wasnt even allowed on 4 states ballots.
Yes, it's a hell of a conundrum, but we must somehow forge a plan of action. I certainly am not going to give up, and neither are a lot of other people.
Perhaps nobody told you over at the DNC, MoveOn or Bushbama Campaign HQ, but there's a Global Revolution in progress...
And you are doing all you can to put the brakes on it by trying to divide and disempower it.
I would like to know who's paying your fee. I never had a PR agency focus on me specifically before - don't know quite what to make of it.
[Removed]
It does not matter who wins the November elections. Either way - Democrat or Republican, Bushbama or Romney - a puppet of the global corporate fascist elite will be in the White House.
get him on the ballot, give him a call
You would be surprised how corrupted the people that run the DNC and the RNC are when it comes to ballot access.
Rocky Anderson is having a hell of a time.
well I'm sure he sucks so that's no matter, but if you can get Reich to try I'm all there
He's number two on Americans Elect behind Roemer.
another jonny come lately, where were these guys the the 80's when Reich was writing about this stuff, there are always sideshows
