Oh, no, not again. The Green Party is not a graveyard for Democrats who have lost their seats.

Ecuador? For the past 30 days, since I returned from a trip there, I can think of nothing else. I have never seriously considered moving to another country, but Ecuador has changed my mind.
I’d suggest trying a Global Exchange reality tour to get a real sense of what is happening and why and the contradictions involved. And you must study Spanish; English will be of little use.

entendre commented on the diary post Occupy K Street by curly.
The police are for the first time interfering with Occupy DC/OccupyK Street. The Occupiers had constructed a very interesting structure for their GAs. The police just ripped it down. Up until this point there has been no problem with police, but, of course, this week Occupy DC/Occupy K St made their presence at the Democratic [...]

If you’re in DC, OccupyDC is getting ready now:
On the two-month anniversary of Occupy DC representing the voices and interests of the 99%, we will march on a Democratic Party fundraiser charging $5,000-$75,000 per dinner.

As always, Kevin, thanks for staying focused and clear-headed.
Holding steady in DC, OccupyDC/OccupyKStreet has issued a declaration.

entendre commented on the diary post Occupy Supply & Occupy Charlottesville by Bob Brigham.
Bulldozers? There were no bulldozers. And all those arrested were wearing smiles. They feel it’s their duty to be arrested; as one Occupier said “I can afford to get arrested.” He invited others to do the same. I fully support Occupy and have taken supplies myself, but I don’t support sensational reporting on either side. [...]

Not sure fraud is the right word —- try opportunist. But we all knew that, didn’t we? For links, all you need to see is at his website http://www.michaelmoore.com/ That includes his blog about where OWS should go now —– which is a list of demands he made (so much for democracy). A friend sent [...]

Best method —- as if you’re making pesto, chop basil in blender with a slight covering of olive oil and then pop into the freezer —- as good as fresh.

I think maybe you missed part of Adam503′s post — he said he’s most concerned about the easy dismissal of entire cabinet departments. The focus on forgetting which ones they’ll eliminate pales in comparison to the fact they’re wiping them out altogether. When we focus on debate problems rather than policy problems we’re part of the problem.

entendre commented on the blog post Another Election Reminder: The Individual Mandate Is Extremely Unpopular
There has been a medicare deduction from my paycheck for as long as I can remember. There were other deductions too — income tax, state tax, social security. I mean . . . how to deduct is the least of the worries. We figured out deductions a long time ago.

Let’s put that “up to 26″ in perspective —— that means up to 26 for those who have parents who have health insurance.
As for pre-existing conditions, yeah, you supposedly can get health insurance, but can you afford it?
The health care bill was good only for the already comfortable. So discouraging to see how low we set the bar.

Check out occupydc.org to see what happened last night during the Occupy Koch Brothers action.
Occupy DC and DC police, as far as I know, haven’t had a serious tension before this, and Occupy DC has worked hard to avoid such tension.

I had this very conversation with a friend yesterday. We have had Working Assets for years, and I’m canceling. I will have to find an alternative —– almost impossible to travel without a credit card, or at least to make reservations or pay for airline travel. I pay my bill off each month so I’m [...]

By contrast, if we didn’t click on them at all, would they disappear for good?
That’s not a rhetorical question —- I’ve never understood how ads get where they do, but they do influence how I feel about that “where.” I’m listening closely to the discussion here, trying to learn something, not sure I can get over my long-held opinion that the ads compromise the intention but I’m willing to listen, as long as everyone is allowed to contribute.
