This is the modern world!

I've been thinking about the state of affairs in this country for the last couple of weeks and I've come to a quick conclusion. This country is the modern Rome burning. It makes sense. Since 1492 the Europeans (all of us) have raped and pillaged the native peoples. Captured and enslaved and endentured people from other continents. Caused an internal war, killing several hundred thousands of our people. On paper emancipated them yet continued to raped and murder them for another 100 years and continue to profile them. We have let religion dictate our domestic and foreign policies. Today religion consumes the mindset of millions of people causing a major lack of tolerance for the freethinking community which in turn makes us a very superstitious and fearful nation. We have a government caught up in greed for itself. Healthcare, education and the environment take a back seat to personal gain. Which is taught to us by television, radio and the printed word. We are a nationalistic empire with an attitude problem. All of this causing economic disaster. The capital class has abused the system for so long now that the bubble has burst. The war on labor has apexed and the labor once again has lost the battle. Collapse, Crumble, Implode.
Yet the rich and the system will rise again from the ashes and we are already starting the process over again......................See you at the bottom.

Al Franken Sworn in as Minnesota Senator

Al Franken was sworn in as Minnesota senator yesterday. What an interesting life he has had. College graduate, writer and performer for Saturday Night Live. Author of several bestselling books , radio talk show host and now U.S. Senator. Al has cited Paul Wellstone as an inspiration and I like that. Al's talk show on Air America was revolutionary. It really pushed the political left to the forefront. In a country where the rich right gave George W. Bush the red carpet and suppressed any dissidence Al Franken was a beacon. Now I hope that Al is not bought off by the health care lobby and the drug lobby and the tobacco lobby and all the rest. Hopefully he will continue in the Wellstone -Kucinich tradition and do what is right by the "people" of this country. The old school Democrats are the new Republican Lite. I'll support Al until he pisses me off, just like Barack Obama. I still believe the two-party system is a complete failure, but I'm stuck with my own conscience and the lesser of two evils......for now!
