"Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for dinner. Liberty is a well-armed lamb disputing the outcome."

Fuck The Bald Eagle. THIS Is America's Official Bird: A Dying, Oil-soaked Brown Pelican
As long as oil companies control our energy policies , as long as the insurers and big drug companies control our health care , as long as the military machine controls our economy ,we can never hope to exercise any control of our destiny as a democracy .
We will only continue to catalog and whine about events after they have already happened until we break the chain of corporate control of our collective destinies as a people .
We must unite and focus the outrage , expressed across the political spectrum .
A national boycott of big oil and a general strike nationwide must now be considered as the only viable way of pushing for a constitutional amendment barring corporate person hood from controlling our democracy .
Anything else is just ignoring the fact that we are being played and the change will never come from voting for either of the two parties at the voting booth .
Lets stop commenting on the news and start making some !
