Open Letter to the Green Party Candidate for IL-12

Hi Rodger,
I saw your letter in the Belleville News Democrat today, and would like to pass on a couple of thoughts. First of all, I admire the goals of the Green Party, as do most progressive Democrats. There are many of us that feel that the two party system leaves us with too little diversity in our political system. However, I would, point out that in the absence of instant run off voting, it is impossible to get third parties on the ballot with out completely throwing elections to a minority party. Republicans use third parties, such as the Green Party, as a means for dividing the progressive votes to get their candidates elected. In some cases they even provide funding for Green Party candidates to win elections with out the support of the majority of voters.
Jerry Costello has an incredibly progressive voting record. He consistently votes in the best interest of the working people of Southern Illinois and the environment. Clearly the progressive agenda would be much better served by focusing collective energy on elections such as IL-19, where John Shimkus is currently serving serving as the congressional representative. He has been a rubber stamp for the worst president we have had in the history of our nation. (Coincidently, Bush was able to challenge the elections in Florida and eventually get appointed President precisely because the Green Party was able to divide the vote in the 2000 presidential elections) There are many other issues that should be considered much higher priority when compared to trying to unseat Rep. Costello. For Example:

- Getting corporate money out of elections with public funding

- Incorporate instant run off voting into elections

- Better regulate the media so it is not so completely unbalanced

- Start a third party for the evangelical Christians

- Start a third party that runs on an anti-immigrant, anti-homosexual, anti-corporation platform

- Get rid of electronic voting machines

- Raise awareness of the Republican practice of voter caging

- Focus on preventing right wing zealots from getting elected rather then running against progressive Democrats

I wish you luck in your campaign for 2008, and should you choose to join the Democrats in the struggle to get our country back, I am sure that you would be welcome to join us!

Best Regards,
Chuck

Bush Nears a Victory Over Spying Powers

December 17, 2007

WASHINGTON -- The Senate appears poised to hand the White House another victory with a measure that would make permanent an expansion of government spy powers and shield phone companies from liability for assisting government eavesdropping.

This Youtube video seems to be pretty appropriate today...




Update: Sen. Dodd was able to stop this awful telecom legislation. What a great example he is for the Democrats! Tell them what you think:

And to support the other Democrat with a spine:

Shimkus Votes Against Ban on Torture

Who can't get behind a little torture during the holiday season!



House Passes Ban On Waterboarding

Shimkus and 198 of his closest friends voted against it. The actual vote count can be found here. How can these guys possibly get re-elected??

Update: There will be no ban on torture. Lindsay Graham doesn't want a ban on it. That's odd, one single Senator can block this legislation, but the entire Democratic majority in the Senate can not seem to block the bill that gives telecoms immunity from spying on us. I am having a hard time understanding why our nationally elected Democrats think we will continue to support them....

Dollar in the Tank?? No Problem, Make Some New Currency!

Perino: I Didn't Know What The Cuban Missile Crisis Was

This is truly astonishing... It hard to believe someone this astoundingly ignorant could be in a position of power... And this happened the same week we found out the Intel community estimates Iran's nuke program ended in 2003 and Bush's CIA is racing to destroy evidence of war crimes. There is no end to this stream of corruption and incompetence. I wanted to hear more about all of these amazing stories, so I turned on CNN. All they were talking about were some naked guys shopping for skittles and a weird long eared mouse that was filmed in the desert.

H.R. 1955: Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act of 2007

There has been quite a bit of chatter in the blogosphere about HR 1955, widely referred to as "the thought crime bill". Most objections to the bill point out that it is using the guise of security from terrorism to lead us one step closer to fascism. Many on both the right and the left of the isle have pointed this out. Surprisingly, it passed in the house 404-6 and will be moving on to the Senate. One of the few Congressmen to vote against this awful piece of legislation (which you can read here) was our own Rep. Costello. Here is the map that depicts the congressional districts that voted against the bill:



Thanks to Rep. Costello for voting against this despite the fact that he was in a very small minority, right along side Rep. Dennis Kucinich. It takes a lot of courage to vote your conscious, instead of following the rest of the party blindly. If we could just get him to sign on to impeach Dick Cheney......

Former Aide Blames Bush for Leak Deceit

Who could have believed he was lying about Valerie Plame??? I suppose all the right wing tools that wrote in to the Belleville News Democrat defending Bush on this one will be sending letters describing how stupid they feel.... But I won't hold my breath...

House Democrats Pretend to Order Bush out of Iraq

Of course - the legislation is non-binding... They can't even bother to pass one that actually does something real... And of course, all of the media is running headlines like this:

House defies Bush and approves Iraq troop withdrawal

They almost make it sounds like the dems have a spine - but we know they don't.

Who Can't Get Behind Dems Now

They got us a new torture czar!



Hillary, Dodd and our own Sen. Obama did not even bother to vote on this. At some point they need to understand - we are not supporting them because they have a D after their name - we support them because they will do the right thing. So much for that.

Part 2


Part 3


So - they did not end the war, they did not end torture, they vote for tools like Mukasey, they refuse to impeach war criminals, they extend Bush's spying program... And I support Democrats because of what??

Teen challenges moment-of-silence law

"CHICAGO - A 14-year-old girl and her outspoken atheist father filed a federal lawsuit Friday challenging a new Illinois law requiring a brief period of prayer or reflective silence at the start of every school day."

I did not even though they were forcing our kids to have a moment of silence in schools, but sure seems like a waste of time to me. Can't kids that want to pray do it at home??

Naomi Wolf speaks at the U. of Washington

I don't know about you, but I am getting really sick of watching the Democrats roll over for Bush. It is almost one year after we elected them to end the war, and we have more troops in Iraq then ever. They passed the Kyl-Lieberman crap and have approved all the funding for the war that Bush has asked for. Nancy Pelosi even asked Rep. Stark to apologize to Bush for being too hard on him. Why are they doing this???? I don't know - but I do know we better be contacting Rep. Costello, Sen. Durbin and Sen. Obama to let the know we are concerned. In addition to watching this video on the "youtubes", you may want to pick up Naomi Klein's book - Shock Doctrine. Consider it a "Naomi" 3some.... :-)

Apparently Glen McCoy Comes From a Whole Family of Right Wing Tools

Apparently Glenn's brother - Gary, is also a right wing tool and he says he is just too old to go serve in Iraq. He had a letter in the paper on Sept. 15th. The BND never did post the letters that day on the web site - not sure why. He does his part by writing inspirational editorials just like his brother Glenn. My question is: I wonder why he doesn't get a job with Haliburton? Or better yet - he could go over and work for the Lincoln Group and write government propaganda. He and Glenn have a lot of practice.

Jim Hightower On Why We Are In Iraq

Jim Hightower is great!!

What I Learned From Bush

Bridges Falling Apart??

I don't know about you - but my taxes are going up. Our local infrastructure is falling apart and Glenn is complaining about it. You think it may have something to do with us spending all our money in Iraq?? I think that is costing $12 billion a month.... Guess their bridges are more important - Glenn??

Get Ready for War Number 3!!

In case you did not hear - Bush basically declared war on Iran yesterday... More info below:

God help us....

GoLeft TV

I ran across this web site that has a fairly good daily news video.

McCoy is Morally Bankrupt

The surge is bringing results?? McCoy must be insane if he actually believes that.... The only results I have seen is this:



I guess McCoy thinks this is positive results from the surge too:

Toll in Iraq Bombings Is Raised to More Than 500

No McCoy - Democrats do not pray for the defeat of our troops - we pray that they come home alive, even though your Republican policies affect that a lot more then our prayers....

Gen. Fast An Embarrassment to Belleville East

After reading the article about Gen. Fast in the Belleville News Democrat:

Belleville East Grad Denies Approving Torture in Iraq

I was deeply embarrassed to have graduated from the same high school. Anyone who has read the Taguba report or any other of the reports that document the mountain of evidence that shows our military was torturing people at Abu Graib knows that Gen. Fast is lying. Of course, the BND is more then willing to do this fluff piece on Gen. Fast so that she can publicly pander to the Bush administration. I wonder how she got on the "fast" track to such a high position?? Incidentally, I have met Gen. Fast. In fact, she gave me one of her "one star coins" while she was the J2 at NSA. Up until her role in the Abu Ghraib cover up I had a lot of respect for her. Not any more - I think I will mail her coin back...

Truman Picnic Today!

Don't forget about the Truman picnic today! It is at Hough Park from 12-4.

Plame was ‘covert’ agent at time of name leak

By Joel Seidman
Producer
NBC News
Updated: 4:24 p.m. ET May 29, 2007

WASHINGTON - An unclassified summary of outed CIA officer Valerie Plame's employment history at the spy agency, disclosed for the first time today in a court filing by Special Counsel Patrick Fitzgerald, indicates that Plame was "covert" when her name became public in July 2003.

Belleville Democratic Club Meeting

Name the Crimes?? Give Me a Break!

Another stupid letter in the Belleville paper:

Name the crimes

The clamoring for the impeachment of George Bush has gone from sublime to ridiculous. Disagreement with the president's position or policy is not cause for impeachment. That is what elections are for.

Do any of these folks know what impeachment means? To impeach is to indict, meaning to bring charges against. An indictment means there is strong evidence a crime has been committed.

According to the Constitution, the president can be impeached when evidence exists of "high crimes and misdemeanors." Can anyone name the crime for which he wants Bush impeached? Does he have any evidence? If so, please forward it to Dick "Turbin" Durbin, Harry "Pinky" Reid or Nancy Pelosi post haste. I am sure they would love nothing more than to bring down the current administration.

It appears, when they have no plan to improve a situation, the best we can expect out of Congress is to act like a bunch of kids on a playground, name-calling and finger-pointing. No wonder Congress' approval rating is lower than Bush's.

And just what list was the letter writer referring to that we should pick a crime to jail Dick Cheney for? Next time, can he include that list in his letter? I am sure we would all be fascinated to read it.

Steven D. Crossley

Here is a list - in case you wanted to keep track:

Conyer's Paper on Bush's crimes

What the F***??

House Approves Foreign Wiretap Bill

WASHINGTON — The House handed President Bush a victory Saturday, voting to expand the government's abilities to eavesdrop without warrants on foreign suspects whose communications pass through the United States.

Glenn McCoy Proves He is a Tool Once Again!

I thinks John Edwards 30 second Youtube clip says it all....

On Bush's Colonoscopy

I saw this quote over on Americablog and about blew coffee out of my nose:

"I am a bit disconcerted that GWB is being sedated for his colonoscopy. One would wish that he'd be awake for that; perhaps then it would give him a sense of empathy for what he has been doing to us for the past 7 years."

Bush's New Executive Order

Enough!

In the last few months George Bush has signed executive orders that are trampling on the constitution. He can now bankrupt anyone that opposes the war in Iraq. He has signed an executive order that says that if there is anything that happens that he deems as an emergency, he can become the dictator. He has commuted the sentence of I. Lewis Libby after being convicted of lying to the FBI. Please call Congressman Jerry Costello at (202) 225-5661 or (618) 233-8026 and ask him to co-sponsor H.R. 333 to Impeach Dick Cheney - then make Bush next.

Yet Another Stupid Letter

This one is a real piece of work. It seems like the right wing nut jobs are coming out of the woodworks with stupid letters. I guess he does not realize that we actually voted for oversight in 2006, and this is exactly what we wanted to see. I also find it fascinating that the right wingers bring up Marc Rich as a reason to validate Bush letting Libby off the hook. As if being convicted of lying to cover up how they lied us into a war that cost thousands of lives and billions of dollars is somehow equivalent to what Marc Rich did (tax evasion). The most biting irony is that Rich's lawyer was actually Scooter Libby.

John Shimkus on Democracy

From the Springfield IL. paper:


U.S. Rep. John Shimkus said Monday that while he is “a democracy guy,” he’s not sure Iraq is ready for American-style government.

“In some of these countries where they are having some Islamic presence, is it better to have a constitutional monarchy, with a very strong, powerful king, and maybe a dictator who is trying to move a little bit to democratic principles, versus just throwing the door open and pushing full-blown democratic principles, which could destabilize the country?” Shimkus said during a discussion with the editorial board of The State Journal-Register.

How can the people in Southern Illinois keep voting for this tool?? He might as well just openly run as a supporter of tyrannical despots... Something tells me the hicks in rural areas would still vote for him as long as he protected the rights of a glob of cells in a petri dish. I am sure all of our soldiers are glad to know they are fighting to get "a strong, powerful king" installed in Iraq. Preferably one that used to work for the CIA, I am sure.

High School Kids Urge President not to Torture

How appalling. We have to send our kids to Washington to correct the President.

"President Bush was presented with a letter Monday signed by 50 high school seniors in the Presidential Scholars program urging a halt to "violations of the human rights" of terror suspects held by the United States."

Maybe we can find a way to put them in Congress...

Nice Quote

"Giuliani has been married more
times than Romney’s been hunting."
-- Harry Reid

George of the Bungle??

You know things are bad when Glenn McCoy turns on the Shrub. So now he his ready to throw him under the bus. While it is great to see that McCoy may be starting to see the light, I suspect he is primarily just following the rest of the wing nut sheep that are pissed that the immigration bill may have some chance of a Mexican getting amnesty. This is the only thing that can drive apart the right wing in this country. Their bigoted, racist hatred conflicting with Bush's corporate buddies and their desire for cheap labor.

B ush on the Sauce Again??

And we think he is bad sober.... I guess this is why he called in sick at the G8.

Dems Cave in on Iraq Funding

Why is it that the Dems have the majority now and all of the sudden it takes 60 votes in the Senate to pass anything?? They did not filibuster anything (not even getting rid of Habeas Corpus) when they were the minority, now the Republicans are making sure nothing gets passed unless it is a giant compromise.

Dems, GOP see win in Iraq funding bill

I say they should have just kept sending him bills that had a withdrawl date and let him explain why the troops ran out of money... If nothing else, we would at least get Halliburton to withdraw - money is all they care about...

One of The Stupidest Letters Ever

We Needed a "War Czar"?

Apparently we do.... I thought that responsibility went with the "decider"??

Belleville Makes News on the Stephanie Miller Show

Stephanie Miller (daughter of Republican Barry Goldwater's VP running mate in 1964) has a nationally syndicated liberal talk radio show which is not on in the St. Louis area. It can be streamed on the Internet from her web site. It is absolutely hilarious. I got a podcast subscription for about $59 for a year and can download the show and listen to it whenever I am at the gym or mowing the lawn or whatever. I posted a sample from today here. Anyway, the other day they had a news item about an incident in Belleville. My sister sent me the link.

More Proof Shimkus is a Moron

From the Huffington Post:

"Rep. John Shimkus just took to the floor with one of the most ridiculous analogies,
comparing the war in Iraq to a baseball game."

In addressing the house, he actually said:

“Imagine my beloved St. Louis Cardinals are playing the much despised Chicago Cubs.”

To help describe the Iraq war.... Someone please go wake the people in Madison and Clinton County....

You can see the video here.

Just in Case your Were Not Sure if John Shimkus was a Moron

Rep. John Shimkus wrote letter to the Belleville News "Republican" complaining about our tax burden on "Tax Freedom Day". It was the most insincere drivel I have ever seen in print. John "rubber stamp anything George Bush wants" Shimkus complaining about paying too much tax? Do you think maybe taxes are related to how much the Government spends, John? He voted for every single thing Bush has proposed including the biggest deficits in the history of our nation. We are spending $10 billion dollars a month on a war in Iraq, which Shimkus strongly supports, yet he does not want to pay more taxes. We have never, ever had a tax cut in a time of war, except by this bunch of corrupt Republicans, and he has the gall to complain about taxes. When are the people of Madison County and Southern Illinois going to wake up and vote this jack ass out of a job?

Note: This rant was also provided to the letters to the editor pageof our own Belleville News "Republican", where I am sure it will be promptly deleted or ignored in favor of the incoherent ramblings of some right wing nut job.

Stupid Letter of the Week

This letter from our world renowned Belleville News "Republican" is so stupid on so many levels, I do not even know where to begin.... I think he is comparing these wars to the one in Iraq. I guess the biggest difference is that the ones he is talking about were almost all shorter and were on AMERICAN SOIL!

Hussein's Prewar Ties To Al-Qaeda Discounted

From the Washington Post:

Captured Iraqi documents and intelligence interrogations of Saddam Hussein and two former aides "all confirmed" that Hussein's regime was not directly cooperating with al-Qaeda before the U.S. invasion of Iraq, according to a declassified Defense Department report released yesterday.

The interesting part is this:

The report's release came on the same day that Vice President Cheney, appearing on Rush Limbaugh's radio program, repeated his allegation that al-Qaeda was operating inside Iraq "before we ever launched" the war

Bush won't throw out first pitch

How about this - apparently Bush decided not to throw out the first pitch on opening day this year:

Bush won't throw out first pitch

Apparently, it was because he did not want to get "boo'ed":

"The White House announced President Bush will not throw out the first pitch on Opening Day due to fears of booing. He's not the first president to worry about being hit by flying vegetables. The tomatoes used to throw themselves at Bill Clinton."

In other news - Alberto Gonzales was at Yankee stadium today - to throw out the first amendment (ha ha).

I wonder what it will take to for right wing nut jobs like Glen McCoy to wake up and smell the coffee about global warming. What is worse is that he gets a forum to share his drivel with thousands of knuckle dragging morons that are perfectly happy to believe his mindless cartoons and completely ignore the obvious.
