What is the soul? Is it an amorphous entity that we throw about and believe sets us apart from the creatures that we dominate? Does that include ourselves as we look down on those that have not achieved what we in this society have been brainwashed into believing equals success. The western predilection for conquering anyone that gets in our way is far more powerful than any other disposition or supposition known to humankind just ask Soulless John McCain.

Union Representing VA Workers Launch Nationwide Radio Campaign, Web Site and Viral Videos for Full VA Funding

This week, the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) launched a nationwide radio ad campaign raising serious concerns about Senator McCain's commitment to veterans' health care. In addition to the radio ads, AFGE, which represents employees in the Department of Veterans Affairs, launched a Web site, Fund The VA, and a series of YouTube ads featuring union veterans voicing their concerns about McCain's controversial veterans health care platform.

The only way anything has gotten done, for those who make the riches for others, the worker, is through organizing! While our Capitalists system is not supposed to have developed that way, It Has! And with the use of fear, and law, those who reap the power, and wealth, have successfully beat down the organizing of the worker seeking the better conditions and what is right for a truly successful economic climate.

This fight for what the Country owes those who Serve It has been extremely long and marked with failures, few successes, for those fighting it!

Asked about higher U.S. cigarette exports to Iran, John McCain said "Maybe that’s a way of killing them." The syntax may be clumsy, but foreign policy and military affairs expert McCain is surely onto a good thing here. Considering that Iraq and Afghanistan have cost us trillions of dollars and tens of thousands of casualties, McCain proposes that our next war be a casualty-free, profit-making venture. Who could possibly object to that?

Now this is how you get the Bush Tax Cuts to work for you.

I quite dislike that John McCain
For reasons easy to explain
It’s not at all his death’s head grin,
Nor his oratory made of tin
Not so much his corrupt cronies
Nor his morals, so very phony.

The problem I’ve with John McCain
Has more to do with his refrain
In which he does us all entreat
To fear the prospect of defeat
Of the Republican nominee
Who just happens to be he.

Who's going to get the votes of Hillary's women supporters, McCain or Obama? That's one of the key questions campaign handicappers are trying to answer.

Our Republican friends have begun the campaign season with their usual class and style; and the resulting Internet gossip has reported that Obama is a secret Muslim, that his Christian Reverend is the scourge of American religion, that he’s no patriot...and that he associates with every evil person on the planet, either by allowing them into his campaign or by his willingness to talk to those who hate us the most.

And Obama has, to this point, chosen to remain above the fray.

Because Obama has chosen the high road, I wanted to offer a few words about how we can be a more civil blogging community—and about a few things we should seek to leave off the table.

Dr. James Dobson of Focus on the Family was on the radio Monday night instructing millions of conservative evangelical listeners to FREAK OUT to the HOMOSEXUAL PANIC!

Dobson interrupted an ongoing series of talks on the subject of “forgiveness” to alert his national audience to the crisis: the California Supreme Court decision recognizing that “gay marriage is legal in that state.”
