Bill O'Reilly - the Falafel for Brains Guy

I have never seen Bill O'Reilly's show. After seeing in this video what a raving lunatic he is I never will. Sex in you sleep is imprtant news on his show, children dieing in war is irrelevant. I enjoy the Simpsons and a few other irreverent show's on Fox. As of this minute I will NOT watch Fox until they remove this dirtbag.

Bloggers Are Part of a Revolutionary Participatory Democracy

I still feel that the internet, the web of free speech, is the most important tool we have to save the world.

AlterNet: MediaCulture: Digby: Bloggers Are Part of a Revolutionary Participatory Democracy

Al Gore: "'The Internet is perhaps the greatest source of hope for reestablishing an open communications environment in which the conversation of democracy can flourish ... It is the most interactive medium in history ... with the greatest potential for connecting individuals to one another and to a universe of knowledge.'"

Annulments and the Catholic Church

If you look up the definition of an annulment it's basically the marriage never existed. Usually because it was not consumated. After 12 years and children you can still get them but it's "gonna cost ya". I wonder if it's a bidding war for the annulment of the annulment.

This is criminal. I have a mentally disabled son. This man was a citizen unable to defend himself against the administrations uncaring machine. "ICE has no reason to believe that it improperly removed Pedro Guzman"? Get real. Claiming to be protecting us, our government has become the "evil empire" that they rail against.

The Condom Ad Too Sexy for CBS and Fox

I would guess most of you reading this have sex. What exactly is wrong with that? Networks that will rape you with useless products using guilt, won't allow the truth to be told about condoms. Is there something wrong with preventing unwanted pregnancies? Get these prudes out of my life and replace them with truth and science. Abstinence only doesn't work.

Corporate greed has turned the U.S. into a service economy until they figure out a way to outsource toilet cleaning. Try living on minimum wage. The economic system rewards the robber barons and forces former skilled workmen into poverty.

Join Michael Moore in Calling For National HEALTH Care

From The Pen:

TELL CONGRESS IT'S TIME TO PASS NATIONAL HEALTH CARE INSURANCE

Every other major industrialized nation in the world has systematicnational health care insurance. It is only the United States that operates on a gouge the poor to the max plan. This issue is going to have much increased visibility this summer as a result of the latest Michael Moore documentary expose, Sicko, which opens June 29th everywhere.

Now is the time for us to all come together and call for passage ofH.R. 676, the National Health Care Insurance Act.

ACTION PAGE: http://www.usalone.com/hr676.php

Unless you are independently wealthy every day is a nightmare in our current health care system. Most of the time those nightmares don't make the evening news, but some are just too depraved not to become notorious. You may have heard, last month a woman literally bled to death on the floor of an emergency room waiting area, while the security camera tape showed the staff ignoring her because she didnot have the correct insurance, while other people desperately called 911 to try to get someone to do something to help her.

Under H.R. 676, Medicare would be extended and improved so that all individuals residing in the United States would receive high quality and affordable health care services. They would receive all medically necessary services by the physicians of their choice, with no restrictions on what providers they could visit. If implemented, the United States National Health Insurance Act would cover primary care, dental, mental health, prescription drugs, and long term care.

ACTION PAGE: http://www.usalone.com/hr676.php

Isn't it time to end the national disgrace of a health care system DESIGNED to bankrupt all who are unfortunate enough to need it, as we all will eventually? Isn't it time to regulate health care providers to provide for the benefit of the national common good, as opposed to the maximum exploitation of the sick?

Please join Michael Moore insubmitting the action page above to put some real pressure on Congress now. Please take action NOW, so we can win all victories that are supposed to be ours, and forward this message to everyone else you know.
