Poverty, abuse, illness are probably among the most prevalent - but what of homelessness, addictions, self-abuse, anorexia, depression? Where do we all fit in? a voice of American progressives WE! MAGAZINE #48, 19 DECEMBER 2007 A weekly magazine for progressives to communicate principles and values. Whether you have a question related to expressing progressive values, a story to share, or praise or criticism for the language of a politician or political pundit, we look forward to reading what you have to share. MyTown Feature Writers Ho Ho Ho's! by Ernest Stewart, 20 December 2007 Well the Democrats have done it again! Attorney General Mikie Mukasey is stonewalling on Bush's approval of torture and waterboarding just as I predicted when the Democratic Ho's bent over for Bush back in November and let this Crime Family Bush puppet continue Gonzo's and Johnnie Ashcroft's treason and war crimes. Damn, I hate being right all the time but then again a blind man could have seen this coming. Read More... Nobel and ignoble speeches, Part 2 Green-Dog Democrat, 20 December 2007 This Green Dog and that of December 19 have between them four speeches, two each of what might best be described as noble and ignoble -- or two each Nobel and ignoble speeches, since two of them are by the last two Americans to win or share in the Nobel Peace Prize and two of them are speeches by an American that are notable for their acknowledged and proved misinformation and deception and exaggeration, which have affected America and the world, continue to do so, and may very well have future effects. Read More... Nobel and ignoble speeches, Part 1 Green-Dog Democrat, 19 December 2007 PR Tips for Immigrants by Larry Sakin, 18 December 2007 I was talking with a female friend recently, who informed me that all Islamic people had the same motives. “All the ‘rag heads’ want to do is get into this country and ruin it. They claim that they don’t hate Americans, but they actually do, and they’ll say anything to get in here and blow up more buildings.” My friend says similar things about Mexicans and white women. Read More... Give Peace A Chance by Joe Parko, 18 December 2007 Since the end of the Cold War, the U.S. has engaged in reconstruction and stabilization operations in more than 17 countries. The majority of these interventions have occurred in states in Africa and the Middle Eeast with weak political institutions. In many weak states, such as Iraq, Sudan, Somalia, Liberia, Afghanistan, Central African Republic, and Lebanon, deadly conflict is still widely prevalent or bubbling just beneath the surface. Read More... Bali High: Administration belatedly realizes how hated it is, backs off by Bryan Zepp Jamieson, 16 December 2007 The big global warming conference in Bali wrapped up last night, and in a last minute burst of activity, managed to cobble together an accord. It’s not a very good accord. It lets criminal regimes like the Putsch junta ignore the growing crisis of climate change for decades and gives India and China enough rope to hang us all, but it’s an accord, nonetheless. Read More... Straight talk about Persian fables Green-Dog Democrat, 14 December 2007 ...doubt about the veracity and accuracy of Bush and Cheney's rhetoric about Iran's threat to the U.S. and the likelihood of Bush's World War III. And boy, were those doubts accurate. As columnist Bill Press points out in his December 6, 2007 column, which is among the tell-it-like-it-is-and-mince-no-words commentaries that follow in this Green Dog with their straight talk about Persian fables. Read More... Holy Underwear Batman! by Ernest Stewart, 13 December 2007 I saw Willard come out of the closet the other day, well, sort of. He appeared at the Bush Presidential Library, the elected one's, to explain to the American Talibaners there assembled that he was just like them, a religious fanatic. The scary part, of course, was that Papa Smirk introduced him and it seems endorsed him? I guess this spells the end of the "Jeb Head" for president movement? Read More... Canadian? Go home! by Al Pope, 11 December 2007 Scenario: the world sits on the brink of environmental disaster Only heroic effort will prevent a catastrophic rise in sea levels, accompanied by deadly droughts inland. Mass species extinction is all but inevitable unless the nations take decisive action. World leaders are gathering at an emergency international conference to decide on a course of action. You’re charged with selecting Canada’s delegation. Who do you bring along? Read More... 21st Century Fiddlers by Larry Sakin, 10 December 2007 About a year and a half ago, I wrote a column addressing the worship of free markets in this country. My premise was how the rise in gas prices were more tied to creating quick quarterly profits for oil companies than to the various Near East wars or the debilitation of American refineries due to bad weather. As it turns out, what we’ve experienced with fuel prices is just a tip of a huge ice flow heading our way. Read More... Exclusive Interview with Syndicated Columnist Bob Koehler by Joan Brunwasser, Voting Integrity Editor, OpEdNews, 9 December 2007 Bob Koehler is an award-winning, syndicated columnist and editor for Tribune Media Services. He is also a rarity – a member of the mainstream media who has paid attention to the issue of election fraud. He wrote "The Silent Scream of Numbers- The 2004 election was stolen – will someone please tell the media?" after he attended the National Election Reform Conference in Nashville in April, 2005. Read More... The long, hard economic winters ahead Green-Dog Democrat, 9 December 2007 This Green Dog features articles by two top economists -- one brief article, one fairly long article. It also has a brief article in which the writer reminisces about Franklin Roosevelt's efforts to revive America's economy during the Great Depression, which came during another Republican administration and which was worsened -- or perhaps even created -- by that administration's actions and inactions and policies. Read More... Into the Darkness: America banks sharply into mid-winter’s night by Bryan Zepp Jamieson, 8 December 2007 There was so much going on this week that it’s hard to know where to begin, really. First, there was the National Intelligence Evaluation, which, for the benefit of anyone living in a cave and Mike Huckabee, was the bald declaration by American intelligence forces that Iran is not working on a nuclear weapon, and hasn’t been since 2003. For a president who was invoking World War III and/or avoidance thereof as a reason to attack Iran now, this totally destroyed his case, leaving him looking foolish and worse. Read More... Fahrenheit 451 Revisited by Ernest Stewart, 6 December 2007 Back in 1953 Ray Bradbury wrote the novel Fahrenheit 451, based on the novella, "The Fireman," which was first published in the February 1951 issue of Galaxy Science Fiction. Like George Orwell who took what was happening around him and said "what if" in books like Animal Farm and 1984, Bradbury used the Communist Witch Hunts of the 50's as the inspiration for Fahrenheit 451. Read More... The United States of Corporations Green-Dog Democrat, 5 December 2007 This Green Dog with its commentary and report and book excerpt and interview is about that state of affairs -- about corporations largely having more influence and privilege than the descendants of We the People who founded the country. It's about "big bidness" with its wealth and lobbyists calling more shots at all levels of government than do the citizens that make up the United States. It's about the need for and some actual citizen efforts to take back power from corporations, however generally Quixotic those efforts until or whenever or if ever the Mitch McConnells of America's political world are sent to political graveyards. Read More... See Jane Run Democracy Down by Norla Antinoro, 5 December 2007 Normally when my progressive friends start complaining about how the Democrats in Congress have not saved us from the Bush administration, I demur and remind them that the democrats do not have a veto proof majority and that Bush has vetoed everything they have passed that he did not like. In most cases the Democrats seemed to be doing the best they could under the circumstances. Rep. Jane Harman [D] is an exception to that rule. Read More... The scent of a cover-up by Al Pope, 4 December 2007 From the sleazy heart of the military industrial complex, where quiet money seals the deals and success depends on good connections and a low public profile, Karlheinz Schreiber sprang into the Canadian limelight last month. Read More... The Strange Case of Gillian Gibbons by Bryan Zepp Jamieson, 2 December 2007 By now the world knows about the strange case of Gillian Gibbons. Ms. Gibbons, 54, looks like everyone’s favorite grandmother, and hails from Liverpool, which is a great place to be from. She taught in the Sudan, an elementary school teacher, and got in hot water when her six and seven year old charges elected to name the class mascot, a medium-sized white teddy bear, “Mohammad.” Read More... The Naiveté of Progressives by Larry Sakin, 1 December 2007 There is one ubiquitous complaint on progressive blogs and bulletin boards- how could the American people be so stupid as to have elected the good for nothing politicians currently running the government? From there, they cite the idealism of a few candidates whose principles match their own, yet are far from view for devastated Americans. Read More... Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. Disappoints by Joel S. Hirschhorn, 30 November 2007 RFK, Jr. has disappointed millions of liberals, progressives and environmentalists by endorsing Hillary Clinton. RFK, Jr. once said: “the Republicans are 95 percent corrupt and the Democrats are 75 percent corrupt.” This has been widely quoted because of its honest assessment of the corrupt two-party system. Read More... "Uncounted: The New Math of American Elections" and the Power of One by Joan Brunwasser, Voting Integrity Editor for Op Ed News, 30 November 2007 I have eagerly awaited David Earnhardt's sequel to Eternal Vigilance: The Fight to Save Our Election System, which was released last year. Uncounted: The New Math of American Elections builds on his earlier film, examining the 2006 mid-term elections and looking beyond to 2008. Earnhardt patiently weaves his tapestry, using archival footage as well as many new interviews, to place this fight for fair elections within its national and historical context. Read More...
