Here is a little song I wrote. I'm not a musician so there is no tune. Just my way of saying thank you for what you are doing. Resistance is vital.
We love our country and our country loved us Way back, way back when We fought and we died and we stood with pride Way back, way back when
A check for your 40 was all it took Way back, way back when For your family to survive, pay their way and thrive Way back, way back when
Greed and corruption were alive and well Way back, way back when But the country with a conscience kept ‘em leashed or penned Way back, way back when
way back when
corporations were not people
churches stayed beneath the steeple
and our votes weren’t flipped
way back when there were leaders we could follow and the news folk weren’t so hollow and our jobs weren’t shipped
War for profit seemed a fading trend Way back, way back when Nation building was for us right here Way back, way back when
Our food didn’t kill us and our meds were safe Way back, way back when We didn’t have to choose between one or the other Way back, way back when
We love our country and our country loved us Way back, way back when We fought and we died and we stood with pride Way back, way back when
I came to this site Friday night to offer my assistance as a non-profit organizer. I can do basic coding of web pages, accounting, and other functions.
Mainly I wanted to get some sanitation facilities out to Zucotto (sic) park.
In a matter of about 20 minutes I found over 15 contact listings, and left vmail and email on every one of them.
24 hours later, no response. They aren't even updating the site anymore.
Where did everyone, and the "tens of thousands" http://afgj.org/?p=1765#more-1765 of dollars go?
Well, the General Assembly never was in the US, they are operating out of a hotel room somewhere in Nicaragua, and the money has been deposited in a Central American bank.
How could the people do this to our citizens, how can members of our government support this?
They have to know, it only took me 20 minutes to find out, and they had days and hundreds of people on their staffs.
