USA to World: There's No Place for Participation... What is the new branding message of the US abroad now that with the help of the Supreme court we have officially abandoned participatory democracy at home?

Health and Fear Corporate-powered misinformation and FEAR over health reform intimidates Obama & Congress to seek 'compromise' from folks who don't know the word. 17 years ago insurance companies trained their guns on the LAST attempt at health reform. NOW they LIKE the new reform. Why? Because it ORDERS us to buy insurance. Free market? Move over, Marx! Many people may well lose their homes to buy mandated insurance. THAT'S sick!

A nation of faith For the all-knowing people who have made recent major decisions, have not had to show or prove anything before acting in our names with our resources. Truly this is a nation of faith.

The REAL Crisis... The enemies of democracy are not conspiring to smash aircraft into our symbols of power. They are circulating freely in the corridors of our Capitol and White House. They sit behind microphones and in front of cameras that blanket the nation with innuendo, false images of humanity and science, disinformation, vitriol and hatred. They take what they want, prey on the weak, and plot to silence those who might object.

History and Responsibility -- A Lesson for July 4th Prejudice and history. A look at the concept of Reparations through an attempt to understand how we all live in a space with historical roots. "...in America it's a given that the individual trumps the common or collective." With racism, however the mainstream "embraces the collective when it comes to punishment," and suddenly the collective "trumps the individual should he be black."

Wake Up Call for Democrats The Democratic Ship of State plows ahead, oblivious to America's problems and needs, and runs a course, once again close to disaster, worried about running into the McCain Shoals, but unworried about the faulty compass, the holes in the hull -- nor the safety of the crew.

The Election Is Over...and America Lost Not one of the candidates on the major party ballots has recognized the true danger this nation is in, nor points out its origins, nor names names. They dare not mouth critiques of the stealing of our nation and of its votes, nor dare stop the made-in-America carnage abroad or offer lasting remedies to the destruction of our middle class, the destitution of the poor and the gutting of our democracy. Yet, we are told they are t

How We Got Here & What NEEDS to Happen: Watch "An Unreasonable Man" How could the American people have ignored all the ample signs of a nation retreating from democracy, yet fight hard to oppose anyone pointing out this uncomfortable scenario? There is a film being shown on PBS this week that will help us understand.

IMPEACHMENT NOW -- AS A DEFENSIVE TACTIC Indeed, our nation and it's laws are under attack. The best way to defend this nation (contrary to what the Bush Administration and members of Congress from both parties would have us believe), to bolster America's security, to restore America's standing in the world and to ensure an orderly return to Constitutional law and with basic civil liberties, this Congress must IMPEACH.

Impeach Cheney? What's at stake if we don't? Some question the political expediency of initiating impeachment proceedings against Dick Cheney. I say it is better to examine the long-term consequences and fallout if we do not do so.

About Taking a Strong Stand It is WAY past time to muster the resources, or even sentiment to resist this hijacking of our nation which, let us be frank, has been going on for decades. You name it -- schools, housing, healthcare, decent jobs, livable wages, womens' rights, healthy food supply, air quality, political representation, dialog, respect, peace -- which of these has improved in the past decades?? But, let's stand together...
