Oh this is a very funny video of protesters outside of the New Hampshire holding large Repacorp checks for 300 thousand to buy your vote.

There is some Great Rock and Roll in these Word-Press-Bloggs. Along with there being some hard to believe Truths. The Truth, that I see in them, don't much matter a whole lot to me, one way or the other, if they can not help this Planet in Much Peril.

I had always thought that The Truth would set us free. So now, I wonder a lot why we all down here in this Broken Promised Land, seem to be in such a State of Confusion.

Well that is true if we listen to the MSM, or try to talk to Beck-heads, or the followers of those like Rush and Hannity etc.

Here are some Students and a Soldier who explain well the trash Soldiers have been trained to do: "search and destroy.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dTEhbf92FdM

There are more and more of these Soldiers waking up all of the time, for they come home from WAR and can't sleep at night.

There is a lot of talk right now on Capitol Hill about the need to balance the federal budget. Sadly, both Democrats and Republicans alike are largely debating about how best to balance the budget upon the backs of the poor and working people (who are many times the very same people) and the elderly. First and foremost on the chopping block appears to be Social Security and Medicare -- the lifeline for millions of seniors in this country and the only hope for any sort of retirement for the vast majority of people in this country.

http://www.commondreams.org/headline/2010/12/08-11

Of course, for those of us concerned about basic notions of fairness and justice, and for those of us who are literally dying at the hands of this system, this state of affairs is completely unacceptable, and must be resisted. A good place to start would be the December 16 anti-war demonstration in Washington, D.C. For more information, go to Stop These Wars.

Here is a call for all of the left leaning spokes-people to call out to their supporters to hit the streets.

Should you commit yourselves to backing this action and others sure to materialize in weeks and months ahead, what would otherwise be regarded as an emotional outburst of the “fringe left” will have a better chance of being seen as expressing the will of a substantial majority not only of the left, but of the American public at large. We believe that your support will help create the climate for larger and increasingly disruptive expressions of dissent – a development that is sorely needed and long overdue.


http://protestobama.org/

This letter is a call for active support of protest to Michael Moore, Norman Solomon, Katrina van den Heuvel, Michael Eric Dyson, Barbara Ehrenreich, Thomas Frank, Tom Hayden, Bill Fletcher Jr., Jesse Jackson Jr., and other high profile progressive supporters of the Obama electoral campaign.

With the Obama administration beginning its third year, it is by now painfully obvious that the predictions of even the most sober Obama supporters were overly optimistic. Rather than an ally, the administration has shown itself to be an implacable enemy of reform.

Germany is doing a great job of coming out of this recession, which I wish we could focus on what works there, instead of all the name calling I see in this Broken Promised Land.

Hourly manufacturing compensation (wages plus benefits) was $48 in Germany in 2008 - the most recent year surveyed by the Bureau of Labor Statistics - while it was $32 in the United States. Yet Germany is an export giant, while we are the colossus of imports.

Douglas D. TroxelDec 16-~

-~"In October, I was in Berlin and rode with friends to the island of Reugen. We could see the massive investment they have made in East Germany. 21,000 windmills, some 100 meters high, dot the landscape. The people are prosperous, happy, content and wonder what all this economic mess is about. Our hosts own a clinic that caters to women and their children. If a family is in distress, their mandated insurance company can approve a three-week "holiday" for them at one of 110 such clinics - all expenses paid.

Can you imagine any congressman submitting a bill for such a "Socialist/Communist" plot to take care of our younger female population? They would be laughed out of the well and forever branded as "Way out of the mainstream capitalist world" and become a target for a well-funded primary challenge next election. One CAN be too progressive for comfort, you know. It is conservatism that controls the message, hence the political direction of our country - down, with the TeaBirchers.

Blogging against conservative ideology may make us feel better temporarily but it is insufficient to actually make a dent in the status quo that is slowly strangling what made us the greatest nation 70 years ago. It was technology that set us apart - our ability to A) transform manufacturing plants to build weapons, B) Manhattan project for the atomiic bomb, and C) unify on our reaction to the Russian Sputnik.

It must be technology that sets our path upward again. We will never get off fossil fuel as long as there is no cheaper alternative. If/when, somone invents a way of producing cheap/portable/safe electrical energy, the tide will turn away and then we must keep the conservative faction from taking it over.

PS.
From a Friend on Spacebook:

Dorothy Lemus: -~" May i suggest for the new year avoiding all tittles such as liberals, rep, demo, progressives, races, color, educational idiots,etc. and come to a realistic confederation of humanistic individuals understanding and taking over this country and changing it to a better, healthier, educated, spiritual, hard working, united place to breath in. love and light."

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. The world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hope of its children…"

-President Dwight David Eisenhower

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!"
~ Samuel Adams

ps.
The Jet my Girl Friend was taking back to Belgium, after 3 weeks of laughs, along with an awkward moment or 2, was held up on account of Pictures in my 3 News Letters she had with her. A lady saw the photos and her Buka, and turned her in as a possible Renegade Muslim (No more of that "T" word for me.) and the Pilot had to clear her... and it took off 20 minutes late.

Here is Chris Hedges giving a speech to remember to share on hope, at the 16th December Peace Rally in front of the White House in the snow.

Here is a video of the last morning me, by my Wife 2-b, before she flew back across the Pond to Belgium after a great 3 week visit. When she go back she learned how to post to YouTube, of which this is the first that she put music too. My PC wouldn't play the videos we were filming... which was a head-ache to say the least. I had a feeling that her newer one would play them... for it was strange how the only way we could watch them here, was when the Camera was plugged into g:/

Just to show ya around the Home of this Blunderite posting all of these links in Mondragon here.

When Mondragon starts forming on local grass-roots levels here in this Broken Promised Land... it will Restore Our Middle Class... with Farmers growing Hemp for the Paper, Plastics, Cloths and Bio-Fuel we can export to Europe, or better yet Africa.
