WAKE UP!

[uNicedmeMan]

I put this in the Though for the Day thread but I think I'm going to start my own. Feel free to contribute.

Link to recent Mark Steiner Show. Checkout a little into the second podcast box for a talk with David Swanson (author of recent book War Is A Lie).

I sure hope we wake up to this stuff sometime soon.

Why do we wait until things affect us personally to get mad?

Why Isn't Wall Street in Jail? ~2 million others are!!! Half of which were most likely non-violent.

You better not be turning into the new Bradley Walker!

[uNicedmeMan]

Please let me know if I start crossing that line.

to avoid being a bradley walker, you need to provide your own analysis. copying and pasting things you agree with takes no skill.

[uNicedmeMan]

Uhh I guess I could tell you guys what I thought about all this stuff but I'm not sure you really want to hear it. All I'm really trying to do here is present some information that isn't often covered in main stream media.

I post stuff, you read it (or don't) and make up your own mind.

[jsun3thousand]

i know how to use google and have been to the depths of the non-mainstream media on all sides. i would rather know what you think. i can read democracy now, commondreams.org, or any other leftist collection site on my own. just copying and pasting is being a bradley walker. bradley walker should be a new rank, frank.

I agree we need to wake up, but have not read your links yet.
I like...

These are likely more fiscally conservative than those you posted. We probably agree 100% on war, but differ when it comes to welfare.

If you want to get into scary conspiracy stuff, I believe that the leaders of the world are merely puppets. They are controlled by their largest contributors. These contributors run finance, and the military industrial complex. They are making huge profits for themselves while removing our freedoms little by little. Economic booms and busts are engineered by the elite to give them an opportunity to buy assets dirt cheap, and to consolidate the power into fewer and fewer hands through regulations that don't really help the root cause of financial turmoil which is the meddling of the Federal Reserve and other central banks. Welfare recipients are merely window dressing for the legalized plunder of the working class.

awesome, thanks UNMM. I'm so glad you could draw the crazies out.

Hey check this out

it's probably best to exercise judgment/restraint and if you want to talk about politics, abortion, religion, etc. i suggest you take it to a forum about politics, abortion, religion, etc.

[uNicedmeMan]

You're the boss Frank, feel free to mod as necessary. I personally can't see how this thread is more disruptive than some of the trolling and personal attacks that have been going on recently.

krusen - Thanks for your post, I'll check that stuff out.

[uNicedmeMan]

I'm so glad you could draw the crazies out.

Join us, it ain't so bad.

[Frank Delicious]

I'm gonna let this go for now but if I keep seeing crazy conspiracy posts that remind me of the old BW thread, this thing is getting locked because that thread was horrible and created more problems than any other thread.

NOT SURE IF IT'S 2012, THE CORPORATE OVERLORDS, or THE MARXIST PUPPET MASTERS OF THE UNIONS BUT THIS IS INTENSE...
