The Thing Is This: You Got To

We Are The People Who Run This Country. We Are The Deciders. And Every Single Day, Every Single One Of Us Needs To Step Outside And Take Some Action To Help Stop This War. Raise Hell. Think Of Something To Make The Ridiculous Look Ridiculous. Make Our Troops Know We're For Them And Trying To Get Them Out Of There. Hit The Streets To Protest Bush's Proposed Surge. If You Can, Go To The Peace March In Washington On Jan. 27. We Need People In The Streets, Banging Pots And Pans And Demanding, 'stop It, Now!'

Freedom Fighters Don't Always Win, But They're Always Right.

Of Course, It Has Never Paid Much.

The Pyramids Were Built For Pharaohs On The Happy Theory That They Could Take Their Stuff With Them. Versailles Was Built For Kings On The Theory That They Should Live Surrounded By The Finest Stuff. The Mall Of America Is Built On The Premise That We Should All Be Able To Afford This Stuff. It May Be A Shallow Culture, But It's By-god Democratic. Sneer If You Dare; This Is Something New In World History.

What Stuns Me Most About Contemporary Politics Is Not Even That The System Has Been So Badly Corrupted By Money. It Is That So Few People Get The Connection Between Their Lives And What The Bozos Do In Washington And Our State Capitols.
