    In the Iliad, Homer had Cassandra, the soothsayer whom no one believed, warn King Priam to beware of Greeks bearing gifts. He didn't heed, got the Trojan Horse and Troy got destroyed.

    I say to you: Beware of Greeks causing rifts, amongst the people who originally supported the President, and who are now, thanks to a Trojan horse, saying that they won't be voting in either the midterms or in 2012. They won't support the President now at all and are encouraged to criticize his every action and inaction. Nothing is ever enough for them.

    In the cyber world, a Trojan Horse is a seemingly innocent application which can unlease a plethora of problems. The Greek causing rifts will eventually cause a Republican take-over of Congress and enable a Sarah Palin presidency.

    But what do I know? Maybe I should be called 'Cassandra.'

    My heart is heavy this evening.  I so strongly feel that this is not our war.  We had a chance in 2002 but we had the wrong President.
    Have a peaceful evening. xx

    Smiling Reign
    14 October 2009

    The world is round
    The rain comes but once a week
    The globe where we all live,
    In our blue skies above
    Looking for what we all do want,
    The spirit of peace and love

    Wanting that baby in our arms to hold
    Watching a friendship grow
    From birth to days of old
    As the tears roll down
    When all is not good
    And we smile when
    The sun does come again

    Seeking angels,
    In pastures of green,
    Weeping children, And,
    Hunger pains to cry
    We look to God,
    In prayers of forgiveness
    In asking ourselves, why

    The world is round
    This globe where we all live,
    Under blue skies of grey cloud
    We fight wars, and we fight to be proud
    We feed the hungry, we defend the poor,
    Then we look to the heavens,
    And ask for more

    Wanting that baby in our arms to hold,
    Not wishing for a babies tears to cry
    As the tears roll down
    When all is not good
    And we smile when
    The sun does come again

    Seeking angels,
    In pastures of green,
    Weeping children, And,
    Hunger pains to cry
    We look to God,
    In prayers of forgiveness
    In asking ourselves, why

    As the tears roll down
    When all is not good
    And we smile when
    The sun does come again

    The world is round
    This globe where we all live
    We feed the hungry, we defend the poor,
    Then we look to the heavens,
    And ask for more

    As the tears roll down
    When all is not good
    And we smile when
    The sun does come again
    We smile, when we know
    Tomorrow will reign

    I am so proud of Alan Grayson for standing up for
    his priniciples. I think that the Democratic Party is
    going to catch on to the  premise that people vote
    for a choice not an imitation.

    Happy Sunday Alan.  Just thought I'd send you something from back when you first caused such a commotion in politics by being your ingenious self.  When Bill Maher takes notice it means you're marching to your own drumbeat!  And in a good way, not in the crazy Michele Bachmann way. lol  Good stuff.

    Hi Alan



    The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn.-Alvin Toffler

    What we see and hear these days is far
    from the truth.

    Thank You for all You do.

    You look like one of the very few i trust,

    Keep up the good work.

    Anyone doing anything to stop this

    Copenhagen treaty?

    Obama is set to sign it soon..

    This is fraud the whole Climate issue,

    and if Obama signs this, it would be

    treasonous. Using the climate issue

    to lay the ground work for a One World

    Goverment.  Why is no one saying anything about this?

    Should that not be the main topic of conversation? especially now

    that someone hacked into the databases, clearly indicating that

    climate numbers were all manipulated, when the numbers really

    show no need for concern.  This is the Biggest scandal i've seen

    since i was born.  and someone needs to come forward and

    destroy this notion of One World Goverment. Here is our chance.

    I hope to see them all in Jail.  Lets step it up.

    They are in trouble now.

    Time to sieze this opportunity. and uncover thier massive lies

    and hidden agenda's.

    Thank You again,

    Ted

    Part 2:

    DADT is an act of Congress, which will take another act of Congress to repeal. Don't think this is a question of a mere Executive Order. Government doesn't work that way. It's all there in the Constitution to read. The President has promised that he will sponsor legislation to repeal this. That he hasn't given a timescale shouldn't be interpreted pejoratively. Put bluntly, he has bigger fish to fry at the moment, such as the jobs' initiative and putting people back to work. Most gays with whom I have spoken are appreciative of the fact that other measures command his attention and are willing to trust him on this. The Senate committee which has back-burnered this is the Armed Services Committee, which is, in the immediate future going to be involved in the resolution of the Afghan question.

    He has been honest about the fact that he will not reach the deadline for closing Gitmo. At least, he has been honest in telling the public that, which is more than Bush ever did. Universal healthcare is only a matter of time and will be achieved. You need to bone up on US history - neither Medicare nor Social Security in any way resembled the Third Rails they are now when they were initiated under Johnson and Roosevelt. You have to have a firm foundation upon which to build a program; otherwise, after the gainsayers have enabled the Dark Side to regain control, they can go about wiping innovation off the books. It took 8 years of a neocon quasi-dictatorship to bring this country to its knees. I don't understand how so many can be dissatisfied that one man hasn't changed everything in 11 months. Almost a year ago, this President said that it would be 10 years before the country was back to anything resembling what it was like pre-Bush. Hold him accountable for his demonstrable and obvious failures; complain for complaint's sake or because it's 'the done thing' at the moment, and you risk seriously enabling the Republicans.

    How has the President compromised women's rights? If you are referring to the Stupak amendment, it has not even been agreed that this will be part and parcel of any sort of final health legislation. Besides, as well as ensuring that a woman has a freedom of choice in that regard, we should also be ensuring that adequate sex education classes be provided in schools, that secondary students, if need be, learn to practice responsible sex (with both boys and girls being accountable for their behaviour in that regard) and perhaps with the morning-after pill being made available in school dispensaries. In teaching such behaviour as this, that will go hand-in-hand with ensuring that abortion never be used as a method of birth control. Also, it would be mete to look at providing proper obstetric and gynaecological care for women in rural and sparsely populated areas of the United States. Secondly, you are forgetting that the first act the President signed into law was the Lily Ledbetter Act, ensuring that women would never be paid less for doing the same job as men. That was a tremendous plus and in no way did it compromise women's rights.

    Also, how do you know definitely that the President has decided to commit more troops to Afghanistan? That is hearsay and conjecture on the part of the press. None of us will know for certain, until Tuesday, exactly what his plans are; but we DO know that he has promised that there will be a defineable exit strategy, something which we have never actually had before in our interventionist foreign policy. Until such a time as Obama details to us his exact plans, second-guessing that will only serve to undermine this Administration.

    As well as the Party of No (AKA the Republican Party), there are ample and very vocal portents of doom emanating from the Left of the political spectrum. They rise up on any occasion to criticize, condem and nitpick every action the President undertakes. They even pretend to know his every move before he makes it.

    Clairvoyant?

    No, but without a doubt, they have an agenda. As part of the media in this country, they hope that the old dictum of 'whoever controls the media, controls the government' holds true, and their aim is to be veritable movers and shakers to suit their own ends and no other.

    I believe politicians should be held accountable for their actions by the people who elected them to serve, from members of the smallest town council to the President of the United States; yet, by some, I have been branded an Obamapologist. Are there things with which I am unhappy regarding policies of this Administration? Yes ... the war in Afghanistan, the continuing existence of the Patriot Act, the fact that Blackwater is still in cahoots with the government, albeit under the name of Xe ... Those are valid concerns. but there are a minutiae of problems with which the current Administration is coping that are open targets for various sources in the media who seek to conflate and propagate rumours to the effect that this administration is lacking in initiative and fervor. Sources on the Right, Fox News, will always propagate rumour, innuendo and outright lies; but there are also sources on the Right in the media, who do the same, for no other purpose other than sheer mischief and attention-seeking. This plays right into the tactics of the Right ... divide and conquer; but maybe that's what they want to do.

    If they were students of English history, they would do well to remember the story of John Neville, Earl of Warwick during the mediaeval Wars of the Roses: Warwick the Kingmaker.&

    Part 2:

    He tried to do just that: play both sides of the field, and in the end he was gutted, literally, in battle.

    Elsewhere today, there appeared a substantial article, surmising that the unemployment situation would be Obama's Katrina, likening the President to Bush in totally ignoring the plight of the jobless. Allusions were made to leaks from vague, faceless sources 'close to the President.' You can well imagine the expected result from the base of the Left, as excitable and clueless as their counterparts on the Right. The base on the Right throws teaparties and town mauls. The base on the Right endlessly complains and threatens to vote for a third party, mount primary challenges to Democratic incumbents (including the President), or not to vote at all. With attitudes like that, the Republicans will be riding high from 2010, and Obama will be lame duck.

    No mention or attention was paid to the hope revealed in Bob Herbert's column in today's New York Times, which shows an industrial revival in Detroit, that most hard-hit of cities. To top that, this industrial revival is in the development of solar heating strips - green energy technology. The creation of jobs and the growth of green industry in the most economically downtrodden city in the country says a lot for Obama's perceived 'failures.'

    You can read the article here:-

    Hello,

    I'd like to request if you can post the link to the petition mentioned at "Countdown with Keith" last night. 

    Question? How do you feel about passing a bill without a strong public option? Is it even worth it?  
    I'm working so hard to give the President the benefit of a doubt, but after his decision to send more troops to Afghanistan, bailing out companies without regulations, hasn't' end Don't ask Don't tell, the promise of universal health care, compromising women's rights, Gitmo still open. So far I'm disappointed.
     
    Ok is Thanksgiving. He has banned torture, and has restore our image. 

    I wish I could be more positive. Maybe next year. Thanks for letting me vent. 

    You two have a wonderful Thanksgiving. 

    Gemma
