Clinton woos the outsourcers that workers fear.

Hillary Clinton, American workers enemy #1. In her home state of New York, Senator Clinton's track record shows she gives American jobs away at a rate of 50 to 1. Imagine 8 years of her as commander of chief, all Americans jobs will be outsourced.

Forcing American Democracy on Iraq

When we invaded Iraq in March of 2003, most Americans backed the presidents plan of overthrowing Saddam Hussein's brutal dictatorship. But should we have been so willing to accept the presidents decision? A deep look points out that maybe we should have stayed home and fixed our own democracy before forcing it on unwilling countries.

The democracy that Americans have come to accept is far from what are forefathers intended. Our democracy is so morally decayed it may never be saved from ruin. We have come to the point that teacher/student sex is widespread, politicians having affairs with interns and hookers is weekly news, violence in schools is at epidemic proportions and the news reporting about our children's role model getting another slap on the wrist for a driving under the influence is constant.

Where has America's morals gone? Is that the kind of democracy we need to be spreading worldwide?

Under the Hussein regime, which was admittedly a very brutal regime, Iraqis did have a sense of life. The fathers would go to work, the kids would go to school, the mothers would go to the market and the families would pray with little fear. Now fear rules Iraq and doing a simple chore like going to the market makes a family wonder if they could be walking into their death of a suicide bombing. And that is the people who can afford the market. Very few people have any money because we have bombed every school, place of employment and mosque.

So will Iraq ever end their civil war and have peace? Not while we are there. The people of Iraq have no interest in the corrupt model of democracy we have laid for them to follow. Will they ever grasp democracy by the horns and reap the benefits? They just might someday, but we better hope that it is better than our morally decayed version.

Our country needs to stop policing the world and come home and fix ourselves. Not one person should go homeless, uninsured and unable to afford higher education if we can afford to drop 10 million dollar bombs around the globe.

Social Networking in the Democratic Party Week 20: Tracking the electronic campaign.

Social Networking sites are primarily used by millions of e-generationers, computer age adults of late teens through thirty somethings, to communicate with friends and family. But this presidential election cycle many e-generationers are doing something different with these social networking sites, they are showing their political support on their personal pages so that all can see. And I am here to compare the amount of support each candidate has so far.

This is the weekly report on how the Democratic Presidential Candidates are faring in the world of Social Networking.

Kucinich speaks from experience on homelessness

Democratic presidential hopeful Dennis Kucinich remembers well those who helped his struggling family while he was growing up, including a nun who rescued him from a particularly hideous pair of pants.

As a boy, Kucinich was in charge of scanning the classifieds, looking for affordable apartments for his parents and six siblings. They moved 21 times -- sometimes into their car -- by the time he was 17.

If Dick Cheney knew of the consequences of invading Iraq in 1994.

Then why did he orchestrate the invasion of Iraq 8 years later? Sounds like a political agenda to me.

Social Networking in the Democratic Party Week 19: Tracking the electronic campaign.

Starting this week I have added Facebook to the list of Social Networking sites I will be tracking. This will give us 3 major sites that are being used by the democratic campaigns to drum up support for their respective campaigns. By watching these sites you can spot trends forming and who knows maybe one of the lower tier candidates might catch fire online and catapult themselves to the front of the pack come January.

My vote to authorize the War in Iraq was a mistake and I want to change it.....

Those are words muttered by a few of the Democratic Presidential hopefuls. But are they really sorry or they just playing to whatever the increasing number of Americans want to hear. Lets take a quick examination and see what we come up with.

John Edwards voted to authorize the war and now seems to be the most outspoken of his regretfulness of that vote. But you have to remember that he can say he has been against the war soon after the initial vote because we will never know how he would have votedthe past half dozen war appropriations. Could it be that he is jobless, his political tank is running on empty, and he is making that one last push for the dream. That would be my guess.

Chris Dodd also voted to authorize the war and has had a change of heart here of late. Up until the last appropriations for the war, Senator Dodd had continued to support the war after voting for it initially. But once it became clear that the Iraq War was going to be a central issue of this campaign due to its increasing unpopulatrity, he jumped to the side of calling his Iraq vote a mistake. Dodd has been a senator of Connecticut for the past 26 years. The 5 term senator is now 63 years old meaning he isn't a spring chicken anymore. My guess is he is fulfilling a dream of his that he can say he once ran for president and hopefully get himself a cabinet position.

Hillary Clinton also voted to authorize the War in Iraq and has had a change in heart towards the war yet can't admit her vote as a mistake, she rather word it I was tricked. Up until the last appropriations for the war, Senator Clinton had continued to support the war after voting for it initially. Senator Clinton though is a rock star and the way she does things are scripted and always right according to MSM. The New York senator never answers the question and veers completely off course when asked it. But what do you expect from a repubocrat. She is big money, she is what republicans want, as she will be a deer in headlights if she makes it to the general election.

When looking at the big picture maybe they did make a mistake and sincerely regret their vote, but it was a crucial mistake that has cost 3700 American lives to date. And if you make a mistake to that degree you should not even be considered for the highest office in the land. Costing 3700 brave men and women their lives is a mistake we can not take a chance of happening again. They were supplied the intel and if they didn't read all the intel, then they should actually be fired from the posts they currently do hold,if any, because they failed there constituents.

DENNIS KUCINICH *I AM MAINSTREAM* MSNBC AUG 07, 2007

On August 7, 2007, Dennis Kucinich appeared on MSNBC to talk about his platform he is running for President on.


Kucinich wins union debate.

Tonight, Dennis Kucinich (D-OH) shined in the AFL-CIO forum seemingly taking the crown as labors candidate. Despite Barack Obama being in his backyard at Chicago's Soldier Field it was the Congressman from Ohio that got the loudest applauses. Kucinich was sincere and answered every question directly to the point throwing in a few witty zingers that brought a chuckle to even the non supporter.

When asked what he planned to do with NAFTA, Kucinich drew a thunderous applause by saying he would scrap it along with WTO in the first week of his administration.





Kucinich's funniest moment occurred during the questioning on China and if he thought of them as an friend or foe. He answered the question with, as a kid I was told if you dig a hole deep enough you will be in China, and he said were there. That was a great metaphor for us being over a trillion dollars in dept to China from continuous borrowing to fund the Iraq War.





This was a start for Kucinich. A few more performances like this and his candidacy will have to be taken serious by the MSM like it or not.
