10 Things You May Not Know About Hillary Clinton

Hey Susan, perhaps you regard Susanne’s rhetoric too personally. The entirety of the past eight years has left many, many people more than a little chagrinned by the wanton pursuits of these meglomaniacs. Their assencion began before W’s selection, and they PLANNED very specifically what magnitude of event it would take to open the flod gates to their desired end. This is what I have believed since POPPY Bush first uttered “new world order” It’s never been about equity in the middle class of America. 6 billion people and only room for 1% to control the happenings. China infused in the african continental affairs, last week The Chinese Preeir visited across South America including Venzuela and Cuba. Serious stuff to contemplate and figure the ramifications. 19 individuals affected a hell on 911, last week 11 individuals devastated Mumbai, Tim McVeigh and a cadre of “AMERICAN” exteremists rattled our faith and dashed our hopes. The mind set of the past 8 years has been one of ” kill them”. Praying helps but your peaceful actions and active tolerence are going to do more to arrest the pending mayhem. I have had a beef with Hillary for supporting Bush on even a single issue. She had not impressed me with her aquiessence to that mobs aspirations!!!! She was playing the game Not leading her constituents. That is the simple reason Obama won and not her! As Sec of State She will possibly continue to be seduced by the narcicissm she has exhibited but I am hopeful that we can all continue to send the message to her, Obama, Gates andand the world at large that we understand that our global position is one of partnership and reasoned interaction. Susanne always brings so much clarity when she writes. She has been seriously active on this post for many months and makes her points from a consistent and well founded position. Some people seem overwhelmed with her capacity to advocate her points, but thin is the skin that charges her with personal attack I think. The world as a whole breathed a cataritc sigh of relief on 114 and you can bet HAPPINESS is a deep side effect and the hope carries on. now the real work begins. The shit storm that Cheney/bush leave behind is a global KATRINA and it’s gonna take a masterful conductor to orchestrate the repairs. E Pluribus Unum as in we only have one world, and this society cannot even get it together and agree on the most pressing issue facing humanity! writing commentary and critique is easy, and helpful and WOW is an enclave of some formidable thinkers which I have thoroughly enjoyed these passed 8 months. The rancorous exchanges are often just entertaining. So keep speakin you minds ladies, like that 100th monkey the air waves are waiting to hear you!

Hateful Westboro Protesters Called Out in Oregon Trans Action

Hey CW I was pleased to see that a satellite of a major “fundi” christian school, based in Oklahoma, is shuttering it’s doors here in Portland. Like so many institutions they have fallen to the economic crisis. Too bad ! They’ll retreat to Ok. I suppose and that,s fine. I simply am so weery of the theologic right, and just get a tingle when I hear of their public or capital set back. Silverton wins big though and their mayor is fabulous!

Bill Richardson Set to Be Commerce Secretary, Say Sources

Mr Richardson as Gov. has set in motion a renewal of rail systems across and around NM whichwill soon prove to be very progressive considering the looming oil crisis. Some one please refer to PRESIDENT Carters clear warning of the end of the oil economy. and the efforts he made to invest in alt energy. If you think “Twilight” is interesting you should probably read what James Kunstler reveals about the future of this consumptive economy we’ve bathed in for 50 years. Check out Jim’s blog at “CLUSTERFUCK NATION” some of the realities are worth considering before this bail out myth deludes you into thinking all will be simple and pleasant on Main or Wall streets. Richardson knows very well that Nuclear solutions are risky at best and that the real truth is that simplification and LOCAL is the future. Get used to growing your own bananas. or at least your own tomatoes. Oil is over guys! Hyper inflation looms, and perhaps a quick course in chinese will prepare us for a “NEW AMERICAN CENTURY” peace and joy

What media hoax or lie are you still trying to get over?

Late to this thread, but On the 45th anniversary of the events in Dallas. I will never believe what we’ve been fed all these years!

Mayor, Superintendent Differ on 'Assassinate Obama' Kids

Sherrie, I think you give Palin too much credit. Remember Ruby Ridge? Remember the 1984 fire fight at the bank on Whidbey Island with the FBI. Remember Waco Texas? Oklahoma City? There’s so much repressed hatred in our society. The boiling pot is melting! Limpbaugh, Salvage, hannityalways inflamatory,always bellicose and vile. People I admired and respected in my youth that “would never vote for a N****”“” This government has accepted outrageous behavior, I mean has practiced agression as the primary solution to a problem for it’s entirety. Palin definately brought out the best in her crowds, and now it’s really out there. Those children may have expressed exactly what we need to hear so we can truly see how deep and pervasive this sickness runs. I cannot get past the emotional terror that was perpatrated against us in the sixties, and I want to blame the likes of cheney, bush, hoover, and so many other purveyors of aggression and fear and hatred. The ” righteous” who continue to spew their venom and work tirelessly for the debasement of others. Palin is a powerless tool, but she puts the lipstink on the festering pig that is the the extreme right wing. Makes a recovering catholic want to cast up a prayer for the good sense that God gave us. We can only hope that these cretins are exposed in good time. Read ” The gathering Storm” by Morris Dees! He is / was the head of the Southern poverty defense fund, and wrote a terrific expose’ on the ultra right wing militias, such as” Blackwater “, very in depth about Tim Mc Veigh, and scary as hell. Authoritarian gun nuts who don’t care much for sharing power prefer to think in terms of immediate solutions regardless of the trauma. The ” green Beret” ar full of these types. well enough of that! There’s not much dialogue with these types though, and I think that is why the Dems have had such a rough go of it these past 30 years. WAIT WAIT WAIT that’s too many words!!!! Palins word though? they must make some sense to these righties. I can’t follow her myself.

Baby Boomers Beware of the Obama Administration? by Myrna Blyth

I admit to being a boomer, but way down the script on that one. I’m slightly older than PRESIDENT Obama, and seeing him last monday with Sen. Mc Cain, I must admit to for the first time seeing his youthfulness. In part, because he was not speaking, but rather just sitting for the cameras. That said, I do not text, I call! I still refer to “my phone” and require frequent assistance at the computer from my children. Obama utilsed a WWW ( as in WORLD wide web) to generate a winning campaign. I wonder what the internaional receipts to his campaign were. On line donations racked up the greatest war chest in the hx of politics. So there in lies the direction of Global politics. Obama seems to be the ” milleniel” candidate for a global body politic. The G-20 represents a broader scope of inclusiveness that these newbys , with their PDA’s, gigs here gigs there . satellite this sattelite that, will come closer to solving global crises by diminshing the soverign authoritarian model, and applying a geopolitical remedy. Maybe not! but the opportunity is closer at hand now than just three weeks ago. Could it be true that GWB turns out to be the “uniter” by default? your kids have the answers in their hands. Call ‘em and see what they say! Chronology matters less than technology. Communication technology is ubiquitous. The message has been sent, and big daddy Authority is not going to resolve the issues of the day. United States, United Nations, United as a world of humans with many differences and many common challenges, we’ll require the vigor of youth, the wisdom of experience, the peace of the lord and the hope that it can all come together! Like that wine question of last week, age is relative., but effective communication is what has delivered this opportunity for PRESIDENT Obama!

What besides wine becomes better with age?

with increased experience and subsequent insights; the appreciation of who and what life presents seems to get better with age. perhaps it’s the recognition that the journey ahead has more potential than the course behind, and the baseline of appreciation is what we weigh the value of the experience against. So everyday that I don’t see my name in the obit’s is getting better.

Who would you like to see in Obama's Cabinet?

Frankly I’d love to See Rachel Madou as Press secretary! Rhoades Scholar, witty, sexy, I’ve only recently seen her on MSNBC, and immediately thought she has such moxie! and the camera favors her as well!

Palin Innocent in Shopping Spree Scandal, Says Source

Perhaps the RNC has the Haliburton syndrome, and its not their money so any expense is OK and the bigger the better. Cost + ! now that’s the wway to do it!

Matt Lauer: Divorce Is a Sticky Subject

Gaffe? who really cares. What I’d like to hear is that “MORNING JOE ” is ganna get bent for his malflouous mouthful! There’s a topic for todays banter. Why would our hosts not address it ? Right wing media bias? Why has’nt the FCC jumped his bones already? Will Brokaw seek advice from Dan Rather? The heat is on! The gloves should be off! It’s gonna get even tenser I’m a thinkin’!!!

Who would you like to see in Obama's Cabinet?

I believe that Colin Powell would be a dynamite NSA Dennis Kucinich would represent the best of the left, and he could shut Limpbaah up by locking him in a closet somewhere!

World Weighs in on New Yorker's Obama Cover

My first reaction was the memory of Jesse Jackson refering to NYC as “Himey town” and I wondered who the editorial staff at the Newyorker are. I am no anti semite but I’m quite sure that many Jewish americans have a vendeta about yet another group aspiring to powerful footing in this country. Perhaps a foolish reaction but not exactly a tactful cover from a major publication. I welcome that representation like Anne Coulter was welcomed here!

Is Caroline Kennedy's Role in Obama Campaign A First Step For Her Own Political Future?

Is Caroline Kennedy's Role in Obama Campaign A First Step For Her Own Political Future?

With the obscene price of gasoline these days, what is your ideal one-day stay-near-home vacation?

Bonnie! So sorry, but in the spirit of the GREAT Seattle cumudgeon Emit Watson “DON’T GO THERE!! DON’T BE INTERESTED! and if you have to ask if there’s a time to visit then there really isn’t! Stay at home folks that’s what this thread is about! Stay at home don’t go any where! Solitude in your blessed homes. That’s the trick! From OREGON with love!!!! IG
