It appears there’s no stopping this runaway train! Our economy is a giant ponzi scheme and the word from the top is “It’s unstoppable, there’s no turning back and we’re gonna ride it to the end.” This morning I read the following statement in the New York Times: The Federal Reserve chairman, Ben S. Bernanke, warned on [...] I hate to say that things haven’t changed much since the Democrats got back in office. We still have Afghanistan, Iraq, GMO’s, the Patriot Act, Guantanamo and mountaintop removal. Oil, Coal, and Big Ag are still heavily subsidized. The small farmers are struggling, the renewable energy sector is hanging on by their [...] I have not written any criticisms of the Obama administration. But I can remain silent no longer. What President Obama proposed today is nothing more than outright sustained murder for profit. Seven more years of destruction to bankrupt the common man and profit the war industry!

I’m talking about the kind of person who is not too bright, but is really sure of themselves. In other words – a bully. Someone who isn’t above making stuff up. Someone who isn’t afraid to cut other people [...] Congressman Dennis Kucinich gave Americans a rousing wake up call Tuesday evening at the Democratic National Convention in Denver, Colorado. Bob and I were very impressed with Dennis when we campaigned for him on Maui in October of 2003 and have championed him ever since. We found him articulate, warm and extremely well-read. Most importantly, he [...] In ARNOLD PREPARES TO TAKE OFF HIS GLOVES. California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger vows to take the EPA to court if they don’t allow California to set their own emission standards. Some [EPA] staff members believe Johnson [head of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency] made his decision after auto executives met with Vice President Dick Cheney and [...] |
