I was reading the transcript of today's interview that Amy Goodman just did with Mark Crispin Miller about the stolen 2004 election and how the same system may still be in place in Ohio and other parts of the country. He is a professor of NYU and author of Loser Take All: Election Fraud and the Subversion of Democracy. Here is a link to the interview: Democracy Now

Last Wednesday, I heard on the radio that Joe Biden would be speaking at a fundraiser at a restaurant that happens to be on my ride home. I knew that I was too late to register and that even if I knew ahead of time, wouldn't have had the money needed.
At a little after 4:00, I started the mountain road drive that winds narrowly up and then down the mountain. About halfway through, I would pass the restaurant where Joe Biden would be speaking.
As I came around the bend I suddenly saw a sea of black and white protest signs all pointed from one side of the road towards the restaurant on the other side. They were white with black lettering, and as the road is dangerous and winding, I wasn't able to read all of them and still maintain a steady hold on the steering wheel to avoid oncoming cars coming up the mountain.

This is a copy of an email I just received from two different people about a blog site that is going to be set up for women to describe why they are against Sarah Palin.
I didn't see this posted, if it is, let me know and I'll delete. The email address is womensaynopalin@gmail.com. I am posting it in case there is anyone with opinions about Sarah here.....

I had the strangest dream yesterday. I went to bed on Thursday, my head filled with hope and security from the words of an intelligent man with integrity.

When Hillary suggested that supporters needed a cathartic moment at the convention, my reaction was, "Ugh, just support Barack and stop dragging this on!" When my mother (a Hillary supporter) was explaining the logistics of how a roll call would work (including Hillary, followed by everyone getting behind Obama), again I felt, "This is going to be a complete mess."
Now after my third night of crying like a baby at this convention, I'm wondering what's going on. Watching New Mexico yield to Illinois, and Illinois yielding to New York, and then Hillary speaking and finally the group roar of, "AYE!" as Barack was finally and officially the nominee. I was crying. I saw grown men in the audience crying. What does this mean? Are the Republicans going to overpower us with their dry-eyed steely attacks? Are we weak?

Not all the images come out clearly on this video but something about the music and the quotes put together that motivates me. There is a clip of McCain talking about staying in Iraq for 100 years, Pat Buchanan saying very strongly that McCain means it when he promises more war, coverage of McCain saying how safe Baghdad is contrasted with comments from someone on the ground and finally McCain talks about how ambition motivated him to make comments about the confederate flag.

I remember the summer leading up to the Iraq war. I watched the Sunday talking heads and listened carefully to the military guests that were on. The consensus was that Iraq was not a direct threat to us and didn't have weapons of mass destruction. It made sense according to what I thought, but having the military guests on my side gave me comfort. Little did I know how far this administration would go.
As we headed into August that year I read about the strategies about how you don't launch new products in August but instead wait for September. Sure enough, I remember Condeleeza Rice and others coming out with new statements each week taking a different direction each time to explain and justify the impending war with Iraq.
I heard colleagues and friends picking up the talking points, "Well, we can't keep waiting on those weapons inspectors" and "911 really scared me." Then there was Colin Powell sent to put a trusted face on our government's lies. It was chilling. It never should have happened. All the correct information was there and anyone saying in Congress that they didn't know at the time either wasn't working very hard or is lying.
