I found you thru them. They have lost their minds over there but will come to their senses.

If you remember, the political climate now is as toxic as an EPA superfund site. The climate got worse under Bush, not surprising, and I enjoyed adding to it . It is even worse because of the President's ethnicity and party. He has been subject to terribly scathing and blistering attacks. Now, I'm here with a shovel and a broom to help clean up and not add any more to the mess. Alot of the frustration is from 8 years of suppression and repression. I think the frustration needs to be directed in the right direction. I am NOT going to take it out on the President.

In addition to giving O a better Democrat here (volunteering for J Brun), Lets remind people of the stuff that is really going on….

Why isn't any of this covered in the news?
1. GOP obstruction…..not a fan of bi-partisanship, but the President at least tried. Can't get much done with them standing in the way.

2. Increasing RW terrorist threats against the President and his family…….A woman was just arrested by the FBI in Hawaii for threatening to kill the first lady….we would have heard for days if any Bushie had been threatened.

3. Increasing RW terrorist activity…..not a conspiracy but a pattern of violence against “liberals” ….the shooting at the Holocaust museum, the shooting of police officers in Penn, the alleged Cuyahoga heights bomb maker……
We need to be writing, phoning e-mailing our friends int he MSM…..they did cover the “history of voter suppression” finally last year.

4, The biggest bank “job” amd associated theft of people's homes, destruction of wealth……….and the crooks make a very good target “Wall street fat cats steal billions”…..this is where we can enlist the teabaggers ….except the RW co-opts them to say less regulation, less taxes. Wall street needs to be taxed and regulated to as close to death as possible. They do not serve a useful function other making money out of money and if they screw up they should not be able to go down in flames without us and without us putting a floor under them. Multi-billion dollar welfare queens I say.

We need to shout louder.
We do have friends, Sen Brown, for example. I actually got a real response from his office concerning Bernanke, as opposed to Voinovich (not one word from him, not even an acknoledgement). Boy is he an empty suit.
Has George do anything for Ohio since he went to DC? I used to be a fan because he got stuff done, not so much now.

I am going to write Brown again. Maybe we need to paper his office. I hope to be able to go to DC for one of his coffees, I know making a personal visit is a good. Maybe his staff reads this blog……….you guys, and gals have some movers and shakers reading the blog. In my next e-mail I will include this site so that Sen Brown can have some idea of where the “grassroots” are.

I cannot be on the side of people (GOP, teabaggers) because they are on the side of my disenfranchisement. Their language is like an alarm (warning….DANGER AHEAD) so I will work to get better Democrats and hold my nose next to the others.

i'm here at PB because i'm a russo fanboy dating from his days at BSB. although we definitely have our differences, i've enjoyed his flying elbows and haughty manner as he displays his political cunning. he also has some weird poetic streak that comes shining through at the oddest moments. hi tim! i'm still getting acquainted with the others here too. seem like a fine bunch, although i find myself drifting back toward the more radical roots of my youth with outlets elsewhere.

in the end we're all brethren of the left, albeit with varying temperaments and goals and opinions about means to achieve them. nice meeting you. glad that you feel you might have found a home here. community is important, especially in these dark days.

Will be volunteering for J Brunner…….so I will be putting my shoe leather where my mouth is.
thank you and have a Merry Xmas

Also, some of our fellow Americans had their world view shifted. The ultimate in scary came true on Nov4 2008, a date which will live in infamy. Obama was elected and is a Black man, and a Democrat.

That makes him a twofer thus doubly scary.

He isn't a “real American” He couldn't have beat a White man………..hence all the birther, commie, socialist, (fascist) language, of course one of these things is not like the others.

Oops, the Cavs are behind

Most of the good stuff in this country is from the left. But some of ur friends can't do the math.

The PD sold Issue 6………again the media selling a pov, not reporting
Remember the selling of the war……..9/11 = IRAQ.
I almost believed it myself………except I thought weren't the 9/11 hijackers from S. Arabia………..WTF. Now the Obama is a (insert pajorative of choice). This stuff sticks just by sheer repetition.

Plus they blame brown skin people, who don't speak english, who aren't Christian, for all the ills…….the old red baiting, combined with “southern strategy” which I never understood until I saw it unleashed on Obama. It gets them elected. I don't know why folks haven't caught onto this except the media keeps repeating this nonsense like they are doing serious reporting.

Serious parroting is more like it.

I don't get it. People are voting for being turned into serfs….
