Interesting Times

by Candy Hollowell

From my inbox last week:

http://www.gp.org/index.php

Please Take the time to see what the Green Party has going on. I was going to withhold my vote this year… something I have never done- but I see that voting Green Party will tell the rest of the nation that we don’t have to put up with these atrocities any longer! So, please- take the time to see what they are doing. After all, how many hours have the Democraps and Repuglicans taken up of your time?????

Also, I will say, once again, what I have said since the Supreme Court committed treason and appointed a president of the United States. The ultimate goal of the Bush Juggernaut is a fascist government and the total collapse of the U.S. Dollar. How far away are we now? Besides, I still won’t believe the bastards have left the White House until the helicopter has flown away from the White House, Bush, Cheney, wives and dogs in tow.

So, what the hell? “And it’s one, two, three- what are we fighting for?” {Country Joe McDonald and the Fish} It has taken a lot to break the bank for this Once Great Nation…. But endless extreme war {in which Bush Co. has profited to the extreme on the hardware of war- an international war crime, might I add), corporate give-aways, tax-dodging for the very wealthy, funding of heinous piracy on Wall Street, and other atrocities as yet unrevealed certainly have changed the tides of financial realities. The aristocrats learned from the French Revolution… don’t let the peasants know who is really in charge.

What will we do? Well, as I was reminded this morning, there is a Chinese blessing/curse for this moment in History… “May you live in interesting times.” Right on! Let’s live it then. And while you are at it, please consider turning off the black magic box in your life… your television! You are being mesmerized by the Beast itself! Stop. Look. Listen… this is, after all, our world and our lives, too. Let us live by our own convictions and means.

Good luck to us all… and may we be able to see the interesting times for what they are!

About Left News and Views

As a life-long progressive, I have always supported those whose goals are to promote social justice and work for political reform. I believe America should work with other nations to promote peace in the world rather than bludgeon those who would disagree.

My goal in Left News and Views is to expose abuses of our rights as citizens, spotlight hypocrisy in government, and most important in today's world, push to get us out of Iraq and bring our troops home.
