Call Nancy Pelosi. Tell her that now we've won the election for executive, she should put impeachment "back on the table".
Feingold and Nadler are now pushing for it.
I'm pushing for it.
Look. The guy invaded a country because he felt like it. He pillaged our national treasury and has substantially weakened the United States. That wasn't incompetence. It was malice. The people who brought him to power impeached a former president for getting a blowjob. It is your duty as a citizen to effectively demand impeachment of George W. Bush.

TRUE, GOOD and WISE
What is the purpose of Spirituality? Maybe it's the cultivation of a temperament that encourages people to live in peace together.
It is my opinion that Dogmatic Religion interferes with this stated purpose of spirituality.
I believe that the three primary focal points of meaningful spirituality are that which is True, that which is Good, and that which is WISE.
True
Good
Wise
Not all that is true is good or wise.
Not all that is good is true or wise.
Not all that is wise is true or good.
Thus there are three instead of one.
I suspect that many people refer to these three as a one and call it "God" or some other name. I think that opens the door to misinterpretation by crooks and quacks and their prey.
I think we all should aspire to do and be that which is TRUE, GOOD and WISE.
That's all.
Any Questions?

Zinn, Chomsky, Goodman, Causes, Conspiracies
I've reviewed a lot of material from Howard Zinn, Amy Goodman and Noam Chomsky.
They emphasize the flaws of rule by unbridled, concentrated capital.
They encourage the development of rule by human beings.
They indicate that they don't want to get tied up in 911 JFK whodunnits.
I suspect that they have probably been served with national security letters (gag orders) regarding both conspiracies.
This doesn't keep me from reviewing the stuff they DO cover.
Those actually responsible for 911 and JFK deserve fair trials (none of this unconstitutional tribunal bullshit) and, in the appropriate cases, imprisonment without cruel or unusual punishment.
"National Security Letters", "Military Tribunals", presidential "Signing Statements" and a slew of other attacks on our republic would best be undone and recognized publicly and offically as the treasons they are.
Our government, which is US with US WATCHING CAREFULLY, is fully capable of identifying the true perpetrators of 911/JFK, and bringing them to justice.
This can be done without hindering our progression towards a government of, by and for the people (actual human beings).
I won't knock Goodman, Chomsky and Zinn for not going off on 911/JFK. It's not their gig. Their focus is developing a world where PEOPLE come before PROFITS. Their view is more wholistic and conceptual, whereas the particular incidents are on a different scale.
I would advise those in the 911 truth movement not to discount that bigger picture. The bigger picture is PEOPLE over PROFITS.
911 and JFK were SYMPTOMS of our primary problem. They are both indicators of the tragic decline of the United States and much of the rest of the world into fascist dictatorship. Part of this tragedy is that a large segment of the U.S. population has been methodically indoctrinated and cowed into not being able to look rationally at it.
The Military Industrial Complex took out JFK.
Concentrated Capital took out the twin towers.
A largely dysfunctional press kept us all in the dark about both.
The struggle of Human Beings against Concentrated Capital [WTO, Federal Reserve, European Central Bank, NAFTA, FTAA are some manifestations] was evident in U.S. Union Battles, The Spanish Civil War, Cuba, El Salvador, Guatemala, Chile, Argentina, Columbia, The Russian Revolution (quickly co-opted by dictatorship), the French Revolution (same deal), the 1999 Seattle WTO police riot, the Miami FTAA police riot, the 2008 Republican Convention iron boot suppression of dissent... countless incidents where the powers of concentrated capital found the "insurrection" of ordinary human beings to be inconvenient or threatening.
They even attacked hippies, ravers, rappers and rastas because they recognized those groups as potential threats to the established order.
Americans have been fooled into thinking that Those in these struggles who are on the side of Human Beings (Left) are "Reds" or "Pinkoes" (a little Red).
Red is the color of Human Blood.
What's in your veins? Greed? Hatred? Fear?
It could be that Zinn, Chomsky and Goodman fear that actual resolution of 911/JFK could result in a violent power upset, in which the Constitution might be officially thrown out, opening up an opportunity for an ourtright murderous dictatorship to take its place, like in Russia and France, and thus they don't want to "go there".
Plus the threats. I think that will come to light eventually. Remember what Wilson said about the Federal Reserve later (said he destroyed america with it).
Be Wise.
I think we can get to Goodman, Chomsky and Zinn's goal (RULE by Human Beings) and have true accountability regarding 911/JFK too.
What would be some first steps?
Contact Nancy Pelosi and tell her to put impeachment back on the table, now that the Democrats have won the presidency. Inaction on this is a disgrace to all of us.
Push legislators for a media Fairness Doctrine in Monopolized Markets.
Show those around you that you don't accept this "Brave New World", and that you follow the TRUE, GOOD and WISE to the best of your ability.
A guy remarked to me once, "Fascism is what happens when the Oligarchy gets scared". The Emperor gets scared when it's shown that he has no clothes. The Right gets indignant when we are preposterous enough to show its flaws. The Right hates congresses and parliaments. The Right wants a King and its supporters are whores and thugs. A kiss-ass is a whore. A back-stabber is a thug.
Fuck the King. I'm an American.

Don't Just Criticize. Think of Solutions
After watching Zeitgeist Addendum (it's on Google Video Free and I highly recommend it), I was interested in learning more about Jacque Fresco's ideas. I just saw "The Future By Design" and find it thought-provoking as well.
Reason, Rationality and Love are essential to our survival.
Although Fresco trusts in a future automated system to manage our community affairs, and he apparently sees no use for human intervention in such systems, I personally believe that a free press and publicly transparent oversight of such automated systems would be essential. I also think a fundamental flaw in Ayn Rand's reasoning, and that of the libertarian right in general, is the idea that a rational society could function without public transparency and oversight.
It is naive to believe that an "automated government" wouldn't be tampered with, like the recently - disclosed republican / Ohio / Chattanooga 2004 computer election theft, without PUBLIC TRANSPARENCY and OVERSIGHT.
I would venture to say that Public Transparency and Oversight should characterize our government, starting now. This requires re-activation of the Fairness Doctrine in any/all monopolized media markets.
An aside: one solution to a disgraceful United States situation, this situation being our lost honor, will be the impeachment and fair trials of certain war criminals soon, now that the Democrats don't have to worry about winning the executive branch. Just thought I'd mention it. We should now PUT IMPEACHMENT SQUARELY ON THE TABLE. We don't have a lame duck to contend with. We have a CORNERED RAT.

Watch the Minnesota Recount
It's not over in Minnesota yet. Keep an eye on this recount. At a glance, there are fishy circumstances and Franken could win the Senate Seat after the Recount.
