Big Dan's Big News Jan 3, 2010

Right and Left beginning to agree against both parties of the U.S. government...just like my saying above: Health CARE for all Americans, not health INSURANCE! The right and left agreeing spells trouble for both parties. We need to get rid of insurance companies. They don't add any value to health care, except to be a middle man skimming 30% profits and denying people coverage but taking $1,000/month from them. Let me repeat as I often do here: besides some backwards 3rd world countries, the United States is the ONLY country that doesn't cover all of it's citizens with health care.

Jane Hamsher: Americans are Finding that Politicians are too Responsive to What Corporations Want





Our corporate owned media ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, & FOX is so propagandized, I actually post more things from Russian Television and Al Jazeera! I get more accurate, interesting, real, hard hitting news from them! ANBCBSNNX speaks for corporations (they OWN the media), the wealthiest few Americans, the military industrial complex, the foreign country of Israel which we are supposed to think is part of the United States (or the other way around), and politicians who speak on behalf of all those mentioned above. THAT is ANBCBSNNX.

Revolution is near - economist

Video 1 - revolution is near: Capitalism brings immense suffering to the world and needs to be overthrown that is according to political economist and author Raymond Lotta from New York. He told RT he thinks a revolution is coming.
Video 2 - the L-Curve - income distribution in the U.S.
Video 3 - who owns America's wealth?
Video 4 - the failure of Reaganomics



I did not support Obama so that the US could continue Bush's criminal policies! I most certainly did not and do not support the commission of new war crimes, aggression, or atrocities!

Demand that Obama End Bush's Policies and War Crimes

UN says Afghans slain in troop raid were students

Afghans burn Obama effigy over civilian deaths





This is interesting - it juxtaposes two different points of view of two people on health care: free market conservative  vs. someone in favor of some sort of government public option:





A Girl Called Jewel

Just days into Israel's war on Gaza, in early January, the extended Al Samouni family, some 48 men, women and children, was attacked in the homes they occupied together in the south of Gaza - and almost all of them were killed. Thirteen-year-old Almaza - 'jewel' - is one of the very few who survived the attack in which 30 members of her family died, many before her own eyes. A Girl Called Jewel is Almaza's story, a heart-breaking eye-witness account of the war in Gaza.

  2. Let's start a commune! Let's all flee to Canada and live together in a commune. We can have a huge refrigerated [with BB2's help] barn full of polar bears, and start a radical blog that turns into the spearhead of a global revolution....

    Anyone notice how many great blog posts that start out talking about Obama and the CIA are devolving into history lessons about the JFK assassination?

    Why don't they just state: THE CIA WILL ASSASSINATE OBAMA IF HE DOESN'T DO PRECISELY AS HE'S TOLD...?

    That doesn't excuse him, but maybe it motivates us....

  4. Just kills me to listen to all those guys still placing their faith in the mythical United States, still hypnotized by the great American work ethic. So many of them will tell you, one on one, that they would love universal healthcare, but they don't trust the government to provide it. Despite how well Medicare has worked, and they even agree with that, there truly IS so much the government has screwed up so badly, HOW do we insist they are wrong? I keep trying to dream up ways we can all get together and hash this out, but this country is so vast, and very few of us have the means to go visit the next state over, let alone the whole country. The internet is too full of partisan shills. It's not getting DONE here. It's as though our COUNTRY is too big to fail, and every bit as deserving of failure as those megaliths we bailed out.
