Raise Your Eyes to Heaven as Bush Tells Karzai He's Gonna Help Afghanistan
2007-08-07 18:26:00 Just another one of those Bush ism's where you can't help thinking "I can not believe he said that" things.As the Tex/Mex border drug wars continue on, the same Texas border where our dear decider in chief was governor, the same Texas where the Bushmaster top gun, was just a little cheese amongst the other 49 cheeses and is now king rat cheese and head of the whole country. The same Texas where everything is bigger including the outrageous lies. The same Texas-Mexas where they are kidnapping, killing, maiming and using machine guns to protect the drug border wars, right here in our own country. I could on and on and on, but why.Afghan security was the key issue in the leaders' two-day meeting, as well as the booming trade in illegal drugs, a resurgent Taleban and civilian killings. Just hearing Bush tell Karzai about how he is going to help him battle the drug trade in Afghanistan was enough for this girl to spew her cold ice water out of her mouth in utter astonishment.

Surreal Irony
2007-08-03 16:13:00 As the Daily KOS holds its annual conference of bloggers gathered for the Blogfest of Electronic Civil Disobedience Convention and on behalf of the millions upon millions of bloggers out there I am reminded of one thing....Free Speech and Independent Voices are tantamount to the well-being of a Free Country. When one person is squelched and or beaten to a pulp like a domestically terrorized Dixie Chick we all are.When shows like The Daily Show with Jon Stewart and The Colbert Report epitomize and take to extreme the insidious disingenious nature of the mass media and all its shortcomings the only thing to do is point out the outrageousness of the system.. Without Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert we would all be in that time warp capsule pod thing wondering alone "Is It Just Me Or....."No it's not just you.Bill Maher is another pointer outter or "I noticed" kinda guy.

Independent Thinker REAL News....or The Borat Effect
2007-07-26 19:15:00 Paul Jay: I think in general it's better. I think CBC particularly is more likely to ask harder questions than American network news. It's a little closer to what a PBS "Frontline" does sometimes, but a little more willing to critique America than Canada. Canadian news has a lot of guts when it comes to critiquing American policy. But it doesn't show the same level of guts when critiquing Canadian policy. Canadian coverage of Afghanistan is almost as jingoistic as the American coverage of Iraq. The assumption is that you can critique on the periphery, but you can't critique the fundamental assumptions. And that's what we're going to do.Their Mission, and they are on a Mission apparently should they decide to accept it:The Real News is a non-profit news and documentary network focused on providing independent and uncompromising journalism.

G-R-E-E-D..........Find Out What It Means To Me
2007-07-26 16:25:00 "Blood is Spilling on Wall Street" This quote comes from a financial big thinkhead unafraid to speak the god-awful truth about the now of nows in America and the on-going saga of the subprime mortage rate debacle better known as predatory lending practices by the loan sharks. yes the Loan Sharks. On the streets that's what they are called LOAN SHARKS. So I guess we can say it now. They are called VULTURES if they overthrow your whole country.....or your government....so somewhere in between a SHARK and a VULTURE would be the correct term that wouldn't offend anyone in the nice, polite and erudite community. Suze Orman, the high priestess of money and empowerment for women wouldn't like that term because Suze sells Cadillacs on her empowerment show while telling the poor decrepit hapless clueless women how the U.S. Money system really works.

Another Avant Garder's Bohemian View of The Real America from the Camping
2007-07-18 04:24:00 This is where one successful artist in New York is getting his inspiration....from camping/road trips he took with his father on summer vacation. It's amazing what one can do with a Chevy and a slide in camper. I emphasis the Successful.... because without the inspiration, the perspiration of your endeavors probably will never be recognized if you are one of the godzillions of other artist and writers and musicians hoping to hit "the big time" while waiting tables doing other odd jobs that you know you were not born to do.....and will largely go unnnoticed or rewarded.

Seeking asylum and protection in another country is not a crime. In fact it is a human right. Far too often people who have been forced to leave their homes and flee their countries are described as "criminals" or "illegals". Or they are described as greedy and even as "terrorists" with little or no regard to the political or human rights crisis they have left. Those labels are often attributed to...

I've followed these little sassy smart mouths and their career and have pondered long and hard as to just exactly when this fight, this battle with the Country Music Academy and Country Music itself all began for the Dixie Chicks. I am almost convinced it began with their highly contraversial song "Goodbye Earl" that was banned from the radio on all the twangy radio stations. It just didn't epitomize the true heart of country and Jeeezus.

Our country is known for blues and jazz and now we can add one more song to the list Negro Spiritual s, the predecessor of blues and jazz no doubt."Back in the Day" slaves had to have some way to tell the other workers, I mean slaves, which way to go to freedom.
