********** Stop SOPA and PIPA ********** These Are Dangerous Bills
In the House the bill is called the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA), and in the Senate the bill is called the PROTECT IP Act (PIPA). SOPA has gotten more attention than PIPA because it was moving faster in the legislative process. But PIPA is just as dangerous, and now it is moving faster.
PIPA would give the government new powers to block Americans' access websites that corporations don't like. The bill lets corporations and the US government censor entire websites and cut sites off from advertising, payments and donations.
This legislation will stifle free speech and innovation, and even threaten popular web services like Twitter, YouTube, and Facebook.
The bill is scheduled for a test vote in the Senate on Jan. 24th: We need to act now to let our lawmakers know just how terrible it is.
********** Official Date for the End of Democracy in America
************
On January 21, 2010, with its ruling in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, the Supreme Court ruled that corporations are persons, entitled by the U.S. Constitution to buy elections and run our government.
Ye come here, gather 'round the stage
The time has come for us to voice our rage
Against the ones who've trapped us in a cage
To steal from us the value of our wage
From underneath the vestiture of law
The lobbyists at Washington do gnaw
At liberty, the bureaucrats guffaw
And until they are purged, we won't withdraw
We'll occupy the streets
We'll occupy the courts
We'll occupy the offices of you
Till you do
The bidding of the many, not the few
Our nation was built upon the right
Of every person to improve their plight
But laws of this Republic they rewrite
And now a few own everything in sight
They own it free of liability
They own, but they are not like you and me
Their influence dictates legality
And until they are stopped we are not free
We'll occupy the streets
We'll occupy the courts
We'll occupy the offices of you
Till you do
The bidding of the many, not the few
You enforce your monopolies with guns
While sacrificing our daughters and sons
But certain things belong to everyone
Your thievery has left the people none
So take heed of our notice to redress
We have little to lose, we must confess
Your empty words do leave us unimpressed
A growing number join us in protest
We occupy the streets
We occupy the courts
We occupy the offices of you
Till you do
The bidding of the many, not the few
You can't divide us into sides
And from our gaze, you cannot hide
Denial serves to amplify
And our allegiance you can't buy
Our government is not for sale
The banks do not deserve a bail
We will not reward those who fail
We will not move till we prevail
We'll occupy the streets
We'll occupy the courts
We'll occupy the offices of you
Till you do
The bidding of the many, not the few
We'll occupy the streets
We'll occupy the courts
We'll occupy the offices of you
Till you do
The bidding of the many, not the few
We are the many
You are the few

"We"
need to stop listening to talking heads and research how their
heads are screwed on!
Note; "We" rank 49th in
the world when it comes to health care!
If you think that's a-ok then you have a big problem with truth!
We can fund wars yet dropped from 23 to 49th when it
comes to the well-being of our citizens!
Are "WE" dispensable?
ASSUME
NOTHING! QUESTION EVERYTHING!

Holiday singing "Strange Fruit".. How appropriate.. "Strange
Fruit" If you
don't know Billie's
background check it out.
"Strange Fruit",
song by
Billie Holiday;
Southern trees bear strange fruit
Blood on the leaves
Blood at the root
Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze
Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees
Pastoral scene of the gallant south
The bulging eyes and the twisted mouth
The scent of magnolia sweet and fresh
Then the sudden smell of burning flesh
Here is a fruit for the crows to pluck
for the rain to gather
for the wind to suck
for the sun to rot
for the tree to drop
Here is a strange and bitter crop
Composed by Abel Meeropol (aka Lewis Allan)
Originally sung by: Billie Holiday

Who and what ideology won the 2nd world
war?
I wish that Sarah
Palin and her ilk represented the truth, from an honest
point of view, about the dire issues facing this nation's
families! Palin exudes a show biz, phony, personality.
Her rhetoric spews out innuendo and back stabbing
comments towards the opposition. Her lack of sincerity exhibits
the truth about her real motives! GR$$D! Palin is for
Palin! Even her abusive use of her children tells the tale!
What will it take to bring honor back to a nation under siege
from faceless corporations who "Dare" exploit the
resources of others, and "US"? First and
foremost, "We" need to stop our dangerous petty
prejudice's. "We" need to stop listening to talking
heads and research how their heads are screwed on! We
need to be better listeners! Prejudice folks and those
influenced by gr$$d only hear what they wish to hear. This
thinking enables the enemy. Further empowering them to
continue their onslaught on our freedoms.
Palin makes her "Blood" money from the very sources whose
agendas would "Dare" take America into the abyss.
It's no secret that the Democrats are needing to clean their own
house! That's a given! I, for one, am sick of the
"Good Cop, Bad Cop" game that some of the legislators,
of both parties, play! "We" watched the game
playing during the FISA Bill debate, then the health care
Bill, more especially after Ted Kennedy took ill. It was a
telling tale if you were seeking truth, and had an open mind
during these debates! The bankruptcy Bill [http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/7494698/] was
well planned, and the changes made were influenced by the very
abuse of power-players of the "Bail Out"
fame and, it was voted into law under a Republican run Congress.
The Republican party, of this era, have openly, with
an in your face arrogance, sold their soul to the company
store and they even "Dare" flaunt their un-American
activities in our American faces. Even the Republican side of
the Supreme Court spit on the Constitution when they handed down
a ruling in favor of corporations which, once and for all,
opened Pandora's box. Think of it! Billions to further
Corporation agenda's have gone into this election process!
BILLIONS! American's are losing all they worked for! And
our "Democracy"? It has been degraded! While the
Insurance companies are going about their usual business as
usual. American's are torn! The American dream fast becoming a
nightmare of monumental proportions.
We were warned that America's fall would come from
within! A respected Republican, Eisenhower, warned
"US" of the Military Complex. JFK was critical of the
Federal Reserve! The signs have been many! But the truth of the
dire issues facing this nation has ultimately been covered
up, not uncovered, by the corporate-run-media. A media
owned by the very entities who would, once and for all,
"Dare" drain what's left of this Nation's life's
blood! There's no doubt that the Rupert Murdoch news empire is
the most dangerous. But, they are not alone in their conquest of
truth! Their trophy? The PEOPLE of these NOT-so-United
States, on it's knees!
All legislators who serve the dastardly agendas of
Corporations should be held to account! Certain members of the
Supreme Court should be tried as traitors for their un-American
rulings! We need to form many citizen committees throughout
the country that will air the dirty laundry of those who have dangerous
agendas, not so secret any longer since the recent Supreme Court
ruling. A ruling so abusive it would "Dare"
undermine OUR COUNTRY to the detriment of her striving citizens.
Many excellent grass root groups have emerged over the last
years, but, as usual, many who stand in support of these
movements forget that the stakes are so high their commitment
"cannot" take a hiatus. Everyone must get out
and vote!
"We The
People" need to take hold of the reigns of our government,
not by violence as advocated by the likes of Angle, of Nevada,
but by becoming that which "We" wish our
legislative body was. Honor bound! Unselfish servants to
the needs of "ALL" Americans and, the people who
share this planet with us! People who practice what they preach
serve reason, it is the power of the mind by which man attains
truth or knowledge! "We" need folks who
understand that this planet cannot survive anymore abuse of it's
elements! "We" need folks who can find a way to co-exist,
in harmony, with each other!
Empire builders
have a single minded goal; "Rape and Pillage"
what they are able, leaving chaos and despair as their
calling card! The bottom line? Sarah Palin, for an example, is
a bought and paid for talking head! And like a good sellout, she
plays her role well as she marches to the tune of
insatiable GR$$D!
It's time to Assume Nothing! Question Everything!
Fascism has been thrown around a lot and even stamped on Obama's
administration! Actually he's been called a Fascist,
Communist, and Socialist! Even Nazi has been laid at his feet
when the Tea party exhibited a sign with a swastika on his
forehead!
How could one man be so many ideologies to these people who
decry his presidency and, are at the heart of what's gone wrong
with America? Are "We" American's so out of
touch with reality we act like zombies in a movie? American's
who perform in this manner do this Nation a disservice, since
they only serve the interest of those who would "Dare"
take this country of immigrants, into the abyss!!
Which party is serving Fascism? Does Fascism serve the
constitution of these United States? Which ideology best
describes that which the Constitution and the Bill Of Rights
advocate? What did the framers of the Constitution have in mind?
Do American's, on the whole, understand what they want
from their government? Do they understand what the corporate
mindset wants? Do American's, educated or not, understand
that the corporate ideology has an agenda to gain control
of government? Any government! Even if it's at the expense
of the populous of a country. Any country! The
WORLD!
"Wake Up
America" President Obama has done well considering
what he INHERITED!
The vicious games the Republicans have played prove that they
care little about the plight of Home-Spun-Americans, nor the
peoples of the world. They are spoiled brats and obstructionist.
Last, but not least, some of the Democrats have either become
Republicrats or, are cowards.
Now for the
nitty-gritty!
A Vote for a
Republican, in this election, is a vote for those who want to
continue with an "incurable" disease. A vote for a
Democrat, in this election, is a vote for those who still
know there's hope at the end of the tunnel. Democrats may be
weak. But are "We"? That should be the question
"We" answer. With the participation of the
"WE" in this forgotten equation, if "We" band
together, "We" WILL
take back our DREAMS!

The
word fascism has come to mean any system of
government resembling Mussolini's, that exalts nation
and often race
above the individual, and uses violence and modern techniques
of propaganda
and censorship
to forcibly suppress political opposition, engages in severe
economic and social regimentation, and espouses nationalism
and sometimes racism
(ethnic
nationalism).
Nazism
is usually considered as a kind of fascism, but it should be
understood that although Nazism sought the state's purpose in
serving an ideal to valuing what its content should be; its
people, race, and the social
engineering of these aspects of culture
to the ends of the greatest possible prosperity for them at the
expense of all else (an 'introverted' socialism). http://www.fact-index.com/f/fa/fascism.html
Quote from President
Obama's 2010 State of the Union Supreme Court Ruling on Corporate
Rights to Influence US Democracy
“Last week, the Supreme Court reversed a century of law to open the floodgates
for special interests including foreign corporations to spend without limit in our
elections. Well I don't think American elections should be bankrolled by
America's most powerful interests, or worse, by foreign entities. They should be
decided by the American people, and that's why I'm urging Democrats and
Republicans to pass a bill that helps to right this wrong.”

Listen To What JFK Says -- He was killed 10 days after
"I have listened to this speech a dozen times now. It never fails to move me deeply.
This man makes me wish I was an American just so I could call him my countryman. I am Canadian and I still feel a deep and abiding respect for this great man."
The world wide conspiracy he is talking about is spearheaded by the USA, and he isn't talking
about communism. He says that fighting against a closed society doesn't mean creating a closed society in and of
itself. He is warning us about the military industrial complex and global empire taking over by using
security as an excuse to take away our fundamental rights, which has happened and continues
to happen.
Why was he killed?

LETTER TO THE RULING
CLASS at JESSE VENTURA’S NEW WEBSITE “WE AINT GOT TIME TO
BLEED”
You control our world.
You’ve poisoned the air we breathe, contaminated the water we
drink, and copyrighted the food we eat. We fight in your wars, die
for your causes, and sacrifice our freedoms to protect you. You’ve
liquidated our savings, destroyed our middle class, and used our tax
dollars to bailout your unending greed. We are slaves to your
corporations, zombies to your airwaves, servants to your decadence.
You’ve stolen our elections, assassinated our leaders, and
abolished our basic rights as human beings. You own our property,
shipped away our jobs, and shredded our unions. You’ve profited
off of disaster, destabilized our currencies, and raised our cost of
living. You’ve monopolized our freedom, stripped away our
education, and have almost extinguished our flame. We are hit… we
are bleeding… but we ain’t got time to bleed. We will bring the
giants to their knees and you will witness our revolution!
