I am one of the people who was sleeping and living in the Wisconsin State Capitol building. We did not do this because of free speech or as a protest against the elimination of the public worker unions, but because it is our house, the People’s House, and we mean that quite literally.

sorry for the one-liner, but this is important. That "Free your TV" ad on the sidebar on the right goes to a website that advocates the destruction of Net Neutrality, among other reprehensible things. Just do a WHOIS on the website it goes to; it's a massive holding company.

Remove the ad immediately.

Last Year, Ron Kind was the only Wisconsin Democrat to vote with the Republicans to continue the war in Iraq indefinitely ("until victory has been achieved", whatever that means). He has taken good stances against Free Trade, for alternative energy, and for farmers, but his stance on the war in inexcusable. Also, he is a member of the DLC.

The best defense is a good offense. When one is attacking, the fighting is done on the enemy's land, destroying his fields and factories, while your lands remain productive. Even if you are defeated in the offensive, you have given yourself enough time to rebuild and attack again in a different spot, keeping the enemy off-balance and unable to recover.

That is what Karl Rove is doing to us. Read More

Herb Kohl is one of the most pathetic so-called Democratic senators. He shuns his constituents- While Feingold holds his famous Listening Sessions, I haven't even seen Kohl's face in years. His stances are uniformly centrist. He will never take a strong stand on anything. His shy, ponderous nature (I theorize he is genuinely afraid of his constituents) does nothing for voter turnout. Wisconsin can do better. Read More

The movie every American must see... The laughable official story debunked... Unanswered questions asked. Why were standard procedures not followed that morning? What can be made of the incredible chain of 'coincidences' in the weeks before the attack? We know exactly who's been lying to us, but how deep is their treason? 82 minutes

(cross-posted Outside the Asylum)

Capitalism is an economic system whereby goods and services are collected and distributed by individuals' selfish choices. In moderation, capitalism is good: competition allows the most skilled individuals and systems to be rewarded, and discourages sloth. Capitalism is the best system.

But Corporate Feudalism, and the interim phase of Fascism, is not capitalism.

I mean, we're liberals. I thought we were supposed to be pro-porn. Now there are all these ads portraying the human body as something shameful- And our people are, ironically, taking money to put them up!

The best part is that the link doesn't even go to the story!

No, I take it back- The best part is that it links to MSNBC, so at least it's not going to someone who's part of the Global Fascism we're trying to overthrow. Wait, that's the exact opposite of what I meant to say.

October 2005: Credit cards double minimum payments. My guess, 5% of the US will be unable to make the new payments without another interest-charging mortgage (effectively, slavery), significant standard-of-living reduction (Christmas is canceled), just flat-out the-bank-taking-the-house, or crime.

November 2005: People trying to file bankruptcy find out they can't, thanks to the changes to bankruptcy laws. Result: Wage slavery or crime.

December 2005: Businesses that rely on Christmas for their existence (such as Wal-Mart) post crippling losses, leading to massive unemployment.

January 2005: Food or heating oil? Read More

Plebian debate tactic: Be specific

when talking to other plebians, cite exactly how they're screwing us: How does this debt-thingy work? Who are we borrowing from? Why exactly is that bad? Whaddya mean, Iraq was a mistake? In what specific ways?

Politicians speak in generalizations, because that's easier than being accurate- but being specific is much, much more impressive, and more likely to sway plebians.
