“I am out to sing songs that will prove to you that this is your world and that if it has hit you pretty hard and knocked you for a dozen loops, no matter what color, what size you are, how you are built, I am out to sing the songs that make you take pride in yourself and in your work.

VIDEO ART CURRENTLY FEATURED ON THIS PAGE:
1. THE POWER OF ONE
Produced by Earth Communications Office
"when you get upset
at how they bury you in debt
and tell you to be happy
that you’re free
when you wonder who to blame
for the things done in your name
by people just the same
as you and me
remember who you are
you’re not your job
you’re not your car
and you could make a difference
if you’d see
the power of one
can change the world
if only you believe enough to try
the power of one
who dares to care
can give hope wings
and teach it how to fly
the power of one"
From "The Power of One" by Jono Manson
I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)
Unimaginable human suffering and mass animal extinction from global warming. A national security nightmare brought on by our dependence on foreign oil. A peak oil crisis threatening economic collapse.
You choose the reason... The time to ACT is NOW!
Ok, that was pretty dramatic... ha. After you change your undies, check out my bulletins and blogs for more good stuff. We can fix this thing...
Washington Transcripts (What is really being said in DC)
President Bush wants his whole team to get behind John McCain’s surge message. The mantra is we have won Iraq, the serge was good and Genral Petraeus is a great American. The President wants no deviation from these themes. We are to make no mention of 500,000 dead Iraqis or the thousands of billions we spent to obtain this result. The American people don’t need any costs beifits analysis at this stage. All they need to see clearly at this stage is some good old White House cheerleading.
From the blog all about Washington political hacks betraying democracy
