i recently signed up with a satilite company. while going thru the channels i came across FREE SPEECH TV. why didn't someone tell me about this little gem.

For everyone who's brains are leaking out of their ears from political horse race news,
for everyone with any curiosity about what is going on in the world beyond the election,
for any one yearning for news unfiltered by american sensibilities this is a god-send.

They take their programming from everywhere. AlJezera is facinating. Stories about Europe, Africa, Asia. In depth local stories. If there is a political slant, i'm missing it.
I don't even like sports and their sports stories about sailing, soccer, bicycling, cricket,and rugby are interesting.

Their weather stories are illuminating. Anyone who has traveled, likes geography
or has family and friends somewhere else this is the segment for you.

It is exactly what Ted Turner's CNN was in the beginning. BBC International Radio on the television. There really is real news! and there really are real reporters unearthing real stories about real people. who knew?

yes there are other political programs. some of them with poor production qualitities,
but IDEAS are presented.

so when the political swamp of msm threathens to swallow you whole, there is a
place to escape.

i sit here raging at my television and at the websites on my computer.
and the questions that come to my mind are in need of answers from people
smarter than i am. so i pose them here. jump in! i can't be the only one with
these thoughts.

1. LARGE MONEY : when you extrapolate their agenda. where does it end?
i posit that they have no end view - that they will just
continue to grab and steal until stopped.

2. ACTUAL NUMBERS: i want real numbers and not percentages.
we progressives want single payer/universal
health care. but how are we framing the issue?
i want to know exactly - the real number - of
people already in single payer/universal health
care: medicare, medicaid, tri-care(military/va)
federal and state plans
as well as the uninsured and most importantly
those using health care cards provided by
doctors, dentists, and hospitals as vehicles
for payment collection of outstanding bills
to make it easy to force sick people into
bankruptcy. do you understand the health
systems turn your account over to these
card issuers without your permission, and
they are basically just credit collection services.
i think that total is larger than those wage earners
paying premiums thru their employer, and its those
people the progressives need to target.

3.PROGRESSIVE NUMBERS: i fear that those of us who consider ourselves
progressives, left and center democrats, left
leaning independents - even rational old school
republicans who know the party has deserted
them, and non-evangelical christians afraid to
raise their hands, are living in a bubble of our
own preferences. we avoid faux noise, and the
LARGE MONEY websites, the hatefilled ranters.
we don't turn on rightwingnut radio........so
are we taking too much comfort in each other?
Are we assuming there are more of us out there
then there are? Are we fooling ourselves into
thinking the rest of the country will 'catch on"
to the dangerous thievery we recognize being
perpetrated against our country?

4. WASHINGTON INCEST: i've begged before for someone to take on the
much needed disection of strange bedfellows
in government. Who is married to whom,
related by blood and marriage to one another
who is who's lawyer, publisher, partner. those
of us outside the beltway have no idea who has
what connection to power. you can bet no one
outside of that loop knew that wieners wife was
an aid to hillary - until the scandal. this could
be handled like wikipedia with everyone adding
to the whole from their personal knowledge. it
would go far in educating the rest of us.

thanks

what do i say now?

For the first time since Obama was elected I am afraid. I knew the racists and the gun nuts would be out there in full force - but i didn't expect ALL the crazies from under EVERY rock to come out. I've watched the same news,
and tried to keep up with the right wing loon conspiracies, but this
goes way beyond that. What is it about this one man that has loosed
the full bodied hatred from the loudest among us?

It was announced in the South Bend Tribune today, August 12, that a Pro-reform rally will be held downtown Elkhart Indiana on Friday evening at
the Elkhart Civic Plaza at Main and Franklin St. from 5-8 p.m.

They are calling it a block party with refreshments, face painting,
kids games and a band - Unfinished Business.

It is sponsered by Change That Works for Indiana

Just wanted to post this so those of us who support Health Care Reform
will attend, and hopefully outnumber the limpublican tin foil ass-hats.

see you there.
