I Wish I could Be Excited...

But...  I've Watched “Our” Reps Cave-In, Time After Time, After Time...
by The Old Hippie Because Your Continued “Allowing” Smacks Down My Optimism.

“The vote on the GOP cloture motion -- to ignore all the amendments and proceed to a final vote on the Bush-Rockefeller SIC bill -- has just occurred.  The motion has failed, which means (shockingly) that Democrats have successfully mounted a filibuster preventing the vote on this horrible bill from occurring.” -- Glenn Greenwald

{-The Way Many Picture Me-}

...this is an extremely mild victory, to put that generously. It is also the only time “our” opposing party's representatives, elected in 2006, have not actually, in the end, caved-in to the demands of the corporatists ruining running what is left of our once great Constitutional Democracy. “Today's FISA vote” ← direct link to Mr. Greenwald's original posting, including all 4 of his latest updates... Enjoy a bit, even if small, victory.  But keep in mind, these “Democrats” voted against us, (i.e. for the corporatists;)  Ben Nelson (Neb.), Blanche Lincoln, and Mark Pryor.  Remember them when their elections come around again.

If you haven’t done it so far, go watch...  → “Zeitgeist - The Movie”  ←  now.

If you doubt anything in the movie’s presentation -{you aren’t stupid}- Research it, look it up.

Obviously, since you are reading this on the internet, you have access to any search engine to do the research necessary to disprove, or to verify, anything yourself.  Please - Do it.  Now.

And if you still aren’t convinced → Go Here. ←

Otherwise - Please don’t bother me, as I simply don’t respond to trolls, and I do openly censor any sycophantic diatribe, and those that feed it by responding to it.
