this speech by Ron Paul is made April 24, 2002--what is incredible is that,unfortunately, it was prophetic. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uUGS9AonCUw |

I agree, The Supreme Court rules America, Congress Rules America, the Senate Rules America and the Preisdent does what they say. With a 10% approval rating of the Lawmakers yet no one votes their particiular lawmaker out of office. Please explain to me why??? In Response to Re: Alternative political news: more about our media Who rules America (president is just a puppet, and it is always the same puppet master no matter if Dem. or Rep. gets to the White House http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXm9O96lINE Posted by Astra2012 |

Astra, Greed is a disease that is turning too many of our elected officials, mainly right wing repubs. into Plutocrats. Response to Re: Alternative political news: we have to keep these people in our SUPREME COURT although i wish we didn't... i do not see them as "fair and unbiased". With a 10% approval rating of the Lawmakers yet no one votes their particiular lawmaker out of office. Please explain to me why??? Apathy, lack of information.it takes a lot of time to know what our government is doing! The idea was that we elect people to represent us in Washington--we trusted they would always have our interest at heart (and so we may take care of other stuff). i believe Americans start to realize that - because some evil people are greedy-they are fed toxins (like artificial sweetener which are neurotoxins), or known allergens (like gluten!), pesticides (Europe doesn't accept some products from us as they have too much residual pesticidses--but of course we eat them) and they are getting poorer while few get outrageously richer (do you know that HOWARD STERN's salary is 100 million a year?) and they TRY to peacefully protest the injustice/wars/bailouts but their PEACEFUL protest is met with brutal reaction of some police officers and changes nothing! but we are waking up. Several month ago I had no idea who my representative was, i voted- but i usually voted for incumbent because i didn't want anyone to lose job... very mature! now i'm checking their voting record.
