    Sheila Parks commented on the diary post SCANDAL ABC: Democracy Continues to Die by Sheila Parks.

    Big business has only gotten worse and worser and worst, need I say. There are lots of “Move to Amend” out there. I hope that will help, but it will take much more than that. Are there even any more mom and pop shops out there? Today, remembering the 45th anniversary of murder of MLK, [...]

    Yes, I agree with Kit. Some in the voting rights movement did not think it was “Anon” who had promised to do this and then did it. Others thought it was them.

    Yes, onitgoes, it really was a thing of beauty to watch. We had a family celebration(for something else) a few days later and we had the most fun talking about it. We have a Repub in the family and when he came near, I kept on telling him he would not like the conversation and [...]

    Archiebird, thanks for your response. However, there are many both in the voting rights community and without that do not think Anon played a role at all. However, that being said, it would have been good had I included both views of Anon this in my blog. Thanks again.

    ThumbnailTeeny Recap ” Snake in the Garden ” aired March 28, 2013. Families of choice and families of origin played front and center; much loss, sadness and grief in the latter. Hollis cries for the loss of his own child but does not care about how the evil he does affects all the other children of the world. [...]

    Thumbnail I was so happy to see Scandal again. “Top of the Hour,” aired March 21, after so many weeks without — The continuing saga of the regular cast and the sad story of a marriage unraveling. Olivia’s advice to the wandering wife, CEO Sarah Stanner, sounded as if  Olivia is talking to herself too. Quinn’s training by [...]

    Thanks, Kit. Weeping through the entire story – for many reasons. If only, if only, if only. I totally agree about the need for a good support system and taking care of ourselves AND one another.

    Good morning, nixonlinbushbama, Thanks for your comment. Yes, the Dems are certainly complicit in the election riggings – with their silence.

    ThumbnailThe brunt of Defiance and the rigging of the presidential election in Ohio still lies on your shoulders, James Novak, even though you refused to tell what you know – so far.  Whether you will have a change of heart remains to be seen. You protected your family by saying you knew nothing about a rigging [...]

    ThumbnailScandal‘s ” Whiskey Tango Foxtrot” aired February 14.  I want to remind everyone please not to get sidetracked by all the exciting sub plots in this Beltway TV series.  The main story is the rigging of a presidential election. The election was rigged by five people, some of whom were very close to Fitz (Tony Goldwyn), the [...]

    ThumbnailWHERE WE ARE Scandal‘s Nobody Likes Babies aired February 7, and ended with Olivia, the “fixer” of Olivia Pope & Associates, riddled with guilt and shame for helping to rig the election for Fitz to become president and now also devastated because he has dissed her (to put it mildly). The next Scandal episode, to be aired February 14, [...]

    Yes, Margaret, there are. Somewhere I used to have a list, but not for a while. Bush’ Brain is the documentary where that gets talked about, I believe.

    Hello again, Norman b

    I do not trust the corporate media and do not expect the truth from them, do not expect them to stand with us, we the people.

    Thanks again,

    Dear normanb, Thank you for your comments. I am not sure exactly what election rigging you mean. There were reports about the Repubs rigging the Iowa caucuses in favor of Mitt Romney and against the Libertarians. A google search will get you there. In my own work, I pay attention to the rigging of the [...]
