Jon Tester….Shows the Schumers and Emmanuels what winning looks like…

September 30, 2006

It consists of knowing your constituents, something Chuck and Ramit have no clue about since they are from urban states, and telling them the….gasp…shock…truth. ‘Folks’ are hungry for the truth since they have a proven liar for President, Vice-President, Sec. of State, Sec. of Defense.

And since they can’t find out from the bought and paid for Corporate Media.  That’s why the Bear was born.

To get the truth to you, or a reasonable facsimile thereof, and the truth is with some more help from you others besides Tester can go to the Congress and shut down the slow rolling coup that’s on the way unless you act…to take your country back.

I, A.Citizen, am trying to do my part. How about you? ActBlue!


The difference is life or death…..

September 29, 2006

Conrad Burns….ya heard of him? He was one of Jack Abramov’s best buds. He’s Senator from Montana. He’s a lying, thieving, scumbag of a ReThug whom I am willing to bet even his mom don’t have much use for. And guess what Jon Tester, whom I’ve mentioned before, is cleaning his clock. Check out the play-by-play…. can you dig it? Jon Tester a farmer from the ranchlands of Montana is kicking one of the leading Scumlicans right out of Congress!

It can be done.

We will do it together.

Drive the Republican Party the Party of Corruption, Treason and Death into the sea!

Visit our ActBlue page and help Jon and the rest you find there take the first step towards taking back our country.

Taking back the Congress of the United States.
  


Republicans are the problem. Your vote is the solution!

September 29, 2006

Let’s get real here folks. It’s election time and this will be one of the most significant elections in a host of significant elections. The fascist scum of the Republican Party have been busy destroying our nation’s infrastructure, morality, armed forces and using the Constitution for toilet paper.

And our Act Blue page has raised $59.00.

Of which I gave $10.00.

This ain’t gonna get the job done folks.  

Tester is giving ’Foot in Mouth Disease’ Burns much more than he can handle in MT.

Lamont is closing the gap on Losermann in CT.  Get with the program and visit his website to learn how you can help.

Webb is breathing fire down ‘Macacca’ Allen’s fat neck. Give him some love so we can send this Bush loving, racist, pusillanimous polecat back where he came from LA!

Here in CA Debra Bowen, our real hope for an end to ‘hackable’ computerised voting, is in the thick of it and needs our help. Go to the Bear’s ActBlue page, look upper right home page, clik away and give some love! Here’s her latest take on the cheap shot artist we have for Governor here in this ‘golden state’. Schwarzenegger is a liar and Debra calls him on it there. And not for the first time.

I close this post with my current favorite quote:

‘We in America do not have government by the majority. We have government by the majority who participate.’ —Thomas Jefferson

All you need to do is ask yourself? Am I going to participate. 

Well, are you?

Start Planning for Halloween!

September 29, 2006

“Beneath this mask there is more than flesh.
Beneath this mask there is an idea, Mr. Creedy,
and ideas are bulletproof.”

I suggest that all who read this blog and think, like we do, that this country has been hijacked by corporatist, neoconservative, fascist, criminals start planning their Halloween costume soon.

I recommend that you all purchase this inexpensive mask to show your solidarity with those of us on the left who are fighting for a free, open, honest, healthy, safe, intelligent and compassionate future for all where greed, war, corruption and suffering are marginalized and kept in check.

For those of you who have not yet seen the movie “V for Vendetta,” I strongly urge you to rent it today. Watch it with friends and family - not if they are too young or faint of heart, however. Be entertained and be inspired.

Here is a clip for your immediate enjoyment… thanks, Citizen:

Here is the list of the brave, brave Americans. People who sully the name Democrat who voted to let George W. Bush determine what torture is!

Gutless Democrats saying Aye:

Tom Carper (Del.)
Tim Johnson (S.D.)
Mary Landrieu (La.)
Frank Lautenberg (N.J.)
Bob Menendez (N.J)
Bill Nelson (Fla.)
Ben Nelson (Neb.)
Pryor (Ark.)
Jay Rockefeller (W. Va.)
Ken Salazar (Co.)
Debbie Stabenow (Mich.)

Gutless Connecticut for Liebermans saying Aye:

Joe Lieberman (Conn.)

Well we won’t have to worry about Losermann as Lamont is rapidly closing the gap and by election day it will be bye-bye ‘Rape Gurney’ Joe.

The rest of these traitors to everything I was taught American was about need to go! If you live in their states I urge you to begin looking for people to replace them with. People who understand that  almost one million Americans have been killed fighting to preserve our freedom. That habeas corpus is one freedom we cannot and will not suffer to lose.

I urge you to get organised and take action to remove everyone of these traitors to America.

The sooner the better.

Oh, yeah let’s get rid of Mr. ‘Dictator’ too.

The gallows pic? What you never heard: ‘Rope. Traitors. Some. Assembly. Required.’

I, A.Citizen, grow more determined to rid our nation of these scume. Hit the ActBlue button and elect some folks who will do that.

Some Thoughts on Leaders Invoking ‘God’

September 28, 2006

Personally, I think that religion can be a beneficial thing for individuals and communities like I think a gun can be an extremely useful tool. However, in the wrong hands - with the wrong leadership - religion can be (and has been) abused and extremely destructive.

Religion can provide an individual with a sense of ‘context’ in life - a sense of belonging and acceptance, helping them to understand “What it all means” and “What their place in it all is.” It can also provide communities with a way to cohesively teach neighborly behavior and pass on cultural traditions and wisdom. When used properly, religion can bring communities together and help the individuals within know what values are encouraged and discouraged in their community.

When used properly, a gun can fend off a bear or charging elephant, thereby protecting those in harm’s way.

But when any human or group claims to act in the name of ‘God’ BEWARE! A religious leader who teaches religious values to his/her community is a mere mortal who has taken it upon themselves to spread the word in order to benefit the community. A religious zealot or theocratic politician, however, is a mere mortal who wrongly manipulates the community by claiming to act in ‘God’s’ name.

When people follow a religion, they are acting in ‘faith’ that the leadership of the organization is acting in their best interest. When a crazed, manipulative, power-hungry, ideologue abuses that faith, then those followers must try to shake off the fog of religion for their own good and see the abusive leader for what he/she really is: a sociopathic criminal perpetrating a fraud at the expense of communities and institutions.

Bush with halo?!

Why would a politician invoke ‘God’ anyway? Are their political skills alone not good enough to earn the vote legitimately? Do they realize that they could never gain power from their own merit? Are they delusional?

These are questions that even the most devout believers of religions around the world must ask themselves any time a leader or would-be person of authority invokes ‘God’ or religion as being on his/her side.

Especially when that leader commands them to act in a way that contradicts the teachings of their religion. Or when that leader him/herself behaves in a manner inconsistent with the religious values they claim to represent.

Our forefathers knew this when they drafted the Constitution. They wisely insisted on the separation of church and state, knowing of the potential for abuse and the inevitable negative consequences.

THEY DID NOTHING….ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!

September 27, 2006

To stop the attack that killed thousands of Americans and which they have used to undermine our democracy ever since.

I accuse the following of high crimes and misdemeanors:

President George W. Bush

Vice-President Richard Cheney

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice

Further, I call for their immediate impeachment and trial.

Further, I call for their subsequent trial for treason: Aiding and Abetting the Enemy in a Time of War.

If found guilty I call for the most severe sentence to be applied.

Think what you will of me and what I say here but the facts are emerging now. Olbermann has slopped the whole stinking vile mess on the nation’s table. Despite death threats from….

Well we can guess who can’t we?

It’s past time to demand that those listed above be held accountable.

Join me and others in doing so.

I, A.Citizen, really support this message.


Outlaw Racist Flags

September 27, 2006

confederate flagnazi flag
The confederate and nazi flags should be outlawed. They represent hatred, slavery and murder. Democrats should push this legislation to show that they are sensitive to the past injustices and suffering of whole populations of African Americans and Jews.

The display, possession, sale and manufacturing of these flags are equivalent to hate crime and as such should be banned by law. Freedom of speech is one of our most valuable Constitutional rights, but a criminal act of hate falls outside the bounds of free speech.

If the right wing believes that burning the American flag is important enough to outlaw, the left should take up this cause. This move would put the right on the defensive and show them for the racist scum that they are.

Let’s come at them from an angle that they would not expect. Let’s get ‘em during an election year with this lefty ‘hot-button’ issue. Let’s blindside them, distract them and knock them out! Let’s start setting the agenda for a change and showing the rest of the country and the world not only that we have principles but that we stand up for them!
