South China Sea Oil and Gas Reserves (of questionable value) ARE for the Asians to settle among themselves.
You are perpetuating a FAILED foreign policy of conflict, intimidation, and unrest through foreign proxies. This is not in the interest of WE THE PEOPLE.
I voted for you. I will vote again. If you maintain this course, serving the energy companies, when there are so many more pressing matters to be dealt with at home...
I WILL NOT VOTE FOR YOU AGAIN, AND SHALL ENCOURAGE EVERYONE TO GIVE UP THERE FALSE HOPE IN YOU.
You are failing US.
Leave China, Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, and the Philippines (also Australia...that was unexpected)to peacefully resolve this matter. Mediating peace is one thing, a good thing. What you are doing is WRONG, for US, for them, for peace in this world.
Message to my House Representative, Richar Nugent, District 5 of Florida
https://forms.house.gov/nugent/webforms/zipauthen_contact.shtml
Hon Representative Richard Nugent:
You represent me in the House.
Reviewing your voting record however, you act against my interests and those of the vast majority of citizens in Florida.
Continue acting to constrain much needed government oversight, abdicating your responsibility to WORK with all the Senate to resolve the many problems we face as a nation, and be assured...
Your recent vocal support for the Balanced Budget Ammendment, and action which effectively abdicates your RESPONSIBILITY to remedy these matters.
Continue to NO WORK, and be assured...
I WILL NOT VOTE FOR YOU. I SHALL DISCOURGE AND EDUCATE OTHERS ABOUT YOUR ACTIONS --AND FAILINGS TO TAKE ACTION--. FURTHER I WILL PEACEFULLY PETITION AGAINST YOUR SELECTION FOR ANY APPOINTED GOVERNMENT POSITION.
<<yeah, I was kind of incoherent... I'm a mixed bag of tricks, but an honest one>>
1 last useful thing I did...
I lied.
I said I would not come back here, and yet I did.... I'm stupidly hopeful.
It's a great weakness, and somehow it gives me comfort and strength.
I HOPE FOR YOU!

Message to Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton http://contact-us.state.gov/app/ask
Secretary Clinton:
This administration is perpetuating a FAILED foreign policy of conflict, intimidation, and unrest through foreign proxies. This is not in the interest of WE THE PEOPLE.
Actions being taken NOW throughout Asia are soley for the energy companies, not for WE THE PEOPLE.
Leave China, Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, and the Philippines (also Australia...that was unexpected) to peacefully resolve this matter.
Mediating peace is one thing, a good thing. What you are doing is WRONG, for US, for them, for peace in this world.
I expected more from you... more than, more of the same toxic foreign policy that made US hated the world over.
STOP
Sharing The Way, for all...
3 things for the mind to comprehend:
1: Harm no one, in word or action. Don't worry about your thoughts.
2: Meet basic needs, striving to do so in a way that fosters indepenence.
3: <<MOST IMPORTANT>> Occationally, take time to reflect on your interactions of word and action. Strive to SEE what YOU (not others) could have done differently to be more productive, to cause less injury (even when you KNOW you are MORE right), and then STRUGGLE TO CHANGE. Grow, overcome your weakness, transend the damage done to you, become STRONGER. GROW, and become more than you are now, ALWAY... until your last breath.
WE NEVER STOP GROWING ON THE INSIDE.
THE STRUGGLE ALWAYS GROWS MORE TAXING AS WE GROW, BUT... well that's going into the spiritual, and that's not what this post is about.
KNOW that the struggle leads to YOU BECOMING MORE. MORE SUBSTANTIAL, MORE --SOLID--, MORE GROUNDED, MORE OF WHO YOU WILL BECOME. Don't worry about the target... JUST LIVE, STRUGGLE, AND GROW--YOU FIND OUT WHO ARE, YOU DON'T PLAN THE PATH, YOU LIVE IT!
Thank you. We all need to be more vocal. We obviously haven't been loud enough.
I did something useful too. I signed up as a potential delegate on the 99% Declaration Working Group site. That and reacquainted myself with Thomas Paine's Common Sense.
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE THAT'S USEFUL TODAY?
That's not a cruel question, unless you've done NOTHING. Even then, it's cruelty of your own inaction.
If you give a shit, SHOW IT!!! At the very f'n least, SLAM your representatives.
I'm no Tea Party member, but DAMN they do have good information.
Perhaps you should read it... tactics, contact info, basic things that any U.S.A. citizen who WANTS TO BE HEARD MUST KNOW.
This movement and the Tea Party are not nearly as different as you think... EVERYONE GIVES A SHIT. NO ONE KNOWS HOW TO PROCEED, FOR REAL.
It's quite simple though: TAKE BACK OUR GOVERNMENT, THEN TAKE THE CORPORATIONS TO TASK, only later deal with foreign policy. China moves at a glacial pace, it always has, and will for generations. Don't stress out over them. They struggle just as we do, to grow into something better, something more.
The people of China are wounded by their own inhumanity. They have NO desire to harm (at least not the majority, the VAST majority).
They have become cogs in a machine, and are only now waking up to this fact... and want to FEEL, LOVE and be LOVED.
LEAVE THEM THE FUCK ALONE !
