Finally! Take note readers. We are going to change this mean old world with Donna J. Warren. The pot is being stirred here. I recommend that anyone feeling the heat here...turn the pages of Randall Robinson’s THE DEBT as soon as possible. Yum, yum, O’Xman. PS Merci, DJW, merci. Listening to the ancestors is a good start, yes.

This is, to paraphrase Frederick Douglass, the kind of quickening of the nation’s conscience that we need on a mass scale. Not that there ever was any doubt among the truly progressive re the Democrats, but for those contemplating ‘holding their noses’, now that Kerry is on record as supporting even pre-emptive ‘strikes’, it is true treachery to support any such candidate. Further, it is in true anti-democratic fashion, as it has been practiced by the Mullahs in Iran and other numerous outright dictators, to simply shove the opposition out of the political arena (and if need be, out of life). Democratic Party is full of people who are as blood-thirsty, and as anti-democratic as any fanatic, in or out of the US, they supposedly oppose. The Osama’s, the Mullah’s, and the Bush’s of the world are safe and will prosper comfortably as long as the US is (mis)led by the likes of these guys. Human beings have two models of behavior handed them by their ancestors. Donna J Warren has pointed to the righteous ones to listen to: the ancestors who stood tall. The other ancestors (of Kerry’s and Bush’s) told us to live on our knees. The choice is clear. Thank you Donna J Warren.
Love and respect in solidarity.
