I saw some chat about Bito. Is he ok? » Posted By SueInCa On February 12, 2010 @ 9:13 pm Did SCOTUS Open The Floodgates? I agree about both. I have stopped following Maher and Ed pretty much at all. If I see them on something or happen to venture in when my hubby is watching Ed, I don’t kick in the TV but I take alot of what they say with a grain of salt for just the reasons you mention. » Posted By SueInCa On February 13, 2010 @ 1:42 pm ChoiceLady “He also warned his students at that time that intellectual snobbery would blind them to the signs when they came” While we should never stive for non-intellect, we must also be cognizent and study in depth the things our intellectual minds do not want to believe is true, that this could happen again. And being a snob about it gets us nowhere. Facts, not rhetoric is the answer. This world has proven again and again, history does repeat itself. » Posted By SueInCa On February 13, 2010 @ 11:24 am Agree with both of you. Javaz – as I was writing the article, I realized just how relevent it was to our efforts. » Posted By SueInCa On February 13, 2010 @ 9:14 am Thanks, I knew you would appreciate the article. Hey did you ever pick up the book by Robin Meyers? I’ve got my husband reading it now. » Posted By SueInCa On February 13, 2010 @ 9:13 am I know Patsy. I get so irritated with the rightwing machine and their propaganda, the only way I know is to combat it with exposure, continued exposure, over a long period of time. » Posted By SueInCa On February 13, 2010 @ 9:11 am New Populist Group – Vote For Your Favorite Names! oh and Good Morning to you and everyone else » Posted By SueInCa On February 14, 2010 @ 10:00 am If not, collaboration would be worth the contact. » Posted By SueInCa On February 14, 2010 @ 10:00 am One word, YES » Posted By SueInCa On February 14, 2010 @ 9:22 am Good deal, I can live with that. » Posted By SueInCa On February 13, 2010 @ 4:25 pm I don’t consider partnering on issues in common, actually joining. If we are looking to draw people from all walks of life, it is going to be pretty hard to work with other organizations because they all have an agenda of their own. I don’t know but do you think we would honestly get any positive reaction from a right group? Or are you saying to keep the group here totally separate with no left, right or middle influence or networking? I guess I am a bit confused because anywhere we go for networking is going to have a political leaning. » Posted By SueInCa On February 13, 2010 @ 4:24 pm I think they should be considered as a possible partner, don’t you? » Posted By SueInCa On February 13, 2010 @ 3:35 pm Will do. I will put together a list in an email that could be very easily sent to Admin here at PPOV. » Posted By SueInCa On February 13, 2010 @ 1:50 pm WOW, i was gone for 24 hours and you got really really busy. We also need to think about how we divide up the “chores” of maintaining everything. I am willing to be responsible for anything you want to give me to do. I am best at research, organization, letter writing. » Posted By SueInCa On February 13, 2010 @ 1:33 pm I checked, it was at the top of the list, must have been left off like I said, inadvertantly. » Posted By SueInCa On February 13, 2010 @ 1:28 pm Hmmm…I rememer that on the original list. It might have inadvertantly been left off the list above. I am going to check the list I posted. » Posted By SueInCa On February 13, 2010 @ 1:25 pm Thanks Adlib, Cher, Javaz, Nellie and everyone who gave great ideas. As javaz says, this only works if we stay involved. It is strange that the corporate involvement in government has now been intentially inserted in to our elections. I went to the library yesterday to get some more Baldacci books and found some books on organizing and the religious right. I am going to do a short article on something I read last night that ties in to the SCOTUS decision very closely. I must have been destined to pick up that very book, and not in a religous destiny way either. It was written a few years ago, but the talk of corp rule in our government is so timely I have to do a piece on it. » Posted By SueInCa On February 12, 2010 @ 7:20 pm Troll Busters! An Introduction I have an email with alot of talking points I keep so I don’t have to bookmark or search the web all the time. I am more than happy to supply them. Just let me know where. » Posted By SueInCa On February 17, 2010 @ 8:25 pm I bet you did, my fav were Jack in the Box tacos or Foster Freeze french fries with mayo. » Posted By SueInCa On February 11, 2010 @ 7:13 pm No dear, California born and bred. It just seemed like such a stupid “unwritten” rule to us. You can wear them when cold but no other time? Good for my sisters in Boulder though. » Posted By SueInCa On February 11, 2010 @ 6:58 pm There is no shame in the corporate world anymore. Where oh where is our Teddy? » Posted By SueInCa On February 11, 2010 @ 6:14 pm I guess the President can do no more than try to shame them. Incredible, makes me want to run over to WellPoint and ask for some money or offer to help them spend their billions. I have a friend from HS and she and I used to do crazy things like that all the time when we were young, just to prove a point. We got pants approved for everyday wear when we continued to wear them after a “winter cold” allowed them for a period of time. They suspended us and we came back again in pants. They gave us detention and we went in pants. After a month of back and forth, they dropped the pants issue as others joined our cause and every student could wear them. You see they had no law/dress code that was formal so not much they had to fight with and we knew it. » Posted By SueInCa On February 11, 2010 @ 6:13 pm BDM » Posted By SueInCa On February 13, 2010 @ 2:16 pm Ok I am out for the night and will not be here much if at all tomorrow. I am sending an email to “Admin” with the word file in it in case someone needs it in my absense. I hope that is ok AdLib. You all have a good night, and keep those bowls filled. » Posted By SueInCa On February 11, 2010 @ 7:38 pm Consider it done » Posted By SueInCa On February 11, 2010 @ 7:16 pm Lol Bito » Posted By SueInCa On February 11, 2010 @ 7:11 pm LOL, that was pretty weird just because no one comments. Hey seriously if I left some of yours off, I can edit the post. But if you are gonna criticize me I will just go back to HP where all the comments are nice. “”””snark””””” » Posted By SueInCa On February 11, 2010 @ 7:03 pm It is there about midway up from the bottom. I would never leave out BDM’s suggestions. All are worthy LOL » Posted By SueInCa On February 11, 2010 @ 7:00 pm Request noted but not sure I have the authority. Yikes, no wonder it has taken us so long to come up with a name. » Posted By SueInCa On February 11, 2010 @ 6:34 pm No more than you or Javaz, a little C&P is all then a little clean up. » Posted By SueInCa On February 11, 2010 @ 6:18 pmComments Posted By SueInCa
Your words point back to the warning Dr.Adams gave his students……..
I also was called in to Dr. Jones office with a boyfriend of mine who drove a van(Chevy) with no windows. He asked if we were planning an anti-war protest on campus because I was hanging out with (long=hair) Bill and because of the term paper I wrote in my junior year against the Vietnam War.
We laughed all the way home on that one. But it did win third place in statewide competition.
I babysat for two who were involved deeply in the anti-war movement in Berkeley and they educated me on the points of civil disobediance. They also always had a bowl on the coffee table and it did not have candy in it LOL
I always like to leave a bit of humor wherever I go, except when it comes to fundamentalists…………….
