8. I wonder how the republicans would vote on an
anti-fascist amendment-one that goes on the record with difinitions, and pushes all the big buttons.

12. Okay...and why should we believe it will do better than the Gannon
bill? Right-wing crooks aren't going to cut-off their own nuts that easily. They know their dirty game is over when they no longer control the media.

16. Who's giving up? I'm just wondering how we're going to use these
obvious obstructionary moves from the Republicans to convince their idiot constituents that they have a lot to hide.

19. Fight,...creatively, passionately, persistently and with an ATTITUDE,...
,...that, ultimately, we will win.

"The people" have always WON before,...and we, the truly best of humanity, will always win.

Ya' just gotta' pull back and acknowledge how powerful we have been to shape how truly awesome we have become in spite of the same ole' greedy, power-mongering assholes that challenge us.

Just,...don't get stuck in the crossfire of struggle and pain,...but rather become a part of the progress of everything we have (by virtue of the struggles of humanity before us) to advance the best of ourselves.

Find honor and meaning and HOPE in carrying the torch of those who sacrificed their lives for human justice and equality,...and feel inspiration by your struggle for the interests of our children who will have to carry our torches.

Life's tough. Let's burden it, together, and make it better the best we can,...then, hug eachother for just being here.

18. Yep
If they gave up their hold on the media they wouldn't be able to sell ANYTHING. People would finally get to find out the truth about them. Them giving up the media is like Greg Palast having his own show on Faux. :silly:
