Eventually they would want us to join in their world willingly. But if not, then to be scared of them, and to be quiet and mindful of their ever watching eyes and ears. Keeping us weak and busy and either joining the military as a last employment resort or just giving up on a political system that has made unfairness systemic and vast amounts of money a necessity in order to be given a chance to decide between two evils they gave us in the first place.

We HAVE become Them.

President Obama has carried on the authoritarian means and methods established by the Reagan regime. It all seems to be just minor variations of minded Democrats and Republicans but with the general ideas being carried forth of dominate corporate Capitalism (defended and supported by the tax payer)encroaching theocracy and draconianisms coming at a slow but relentless creep. Had they been implemented all at once over one year than over 30 years we would think a coup had taken place. It is one, just slow but steady wins the race to crush the Republic.

debolt, THAT is the true hero ( Manning ), not the obedient minions ( although I dare say most haven’t the faintest idea ).

Well said.

To My Fellow Amerikans:

On Monday when you are slathering on the sunscreen (A & B), chomping into your third hot dog and opening your second beer, pause and remember for a moment the man who is making it all possible.  He is one of our soldiers, a man, who in the service of his country, is facing violence, torture and even the sacrifice of his own life for the sake of the freedoms we so casually enjoy.  His name is Private, Bradley Manning and he, unlike the cowardly legions of our Obama Nation, is standing alone in his solitary cell on this holiday, fighting to keep us all safe and free.

With Peace, Love & Rage,

Bob Boldt

Sadly, by the time Manning sees a day in the devil’s court, he may not even remember his own name.

Bradley Manning is the Winston Smith of 2011.

Mr Fish and All

If you have a compelling story about the Minnesota State Government Shut Down but have problems getting that story out on progressive blogs (including those which refuse to even allow you to post comments) than can you advise me on a good way to get the story out?

Deadly serious question.

Says it all!  There’s not substitute for incisive minds.

Excellent.
