PUMA Reaches Ron Paul Popularity

According to riverdaughter, the effort to override the voters (Obama won both delegates and the popular vote) and install Hillary Clinton as Presidential candidate is now a movement (emphasis mine):
There are MILLIONS of us.  This is no exaggeration.
The first day that Darragh Murphy opened her doors on PUMAPac, she got 35,000 hits.  That’s ONLINE hits.  [...]

Accountability and Politics: Bedfellows at Last!

But only if we’re aggressive.
My friend Marco sent me a link to an incredibly important article.  Glenn Greenwald has effectively reframed American politics as a struggle between voters and the political class:
The August 8 Money Bomb is intended to be used to fuel a long-term campaign and an enduring organization devoted to changing the behavior [...]

Hillary’s Supporters and Florida’s Primary Flop

Something is wrong.  These are our allies, and the level of mistrust and hatred is palpable.  But so is the level of denial (The Confluence):
Doesn’t look too good for him though. I love the stories from fellow conflucians about how they are responding to requests for donations from the DNC. I think Paul’s (plukasiak) was [...]

Hillary Clinton Must Go

She shouldn’t be given a leadership position as a “consolation prize”.  She shouldn’t be bailed out by Obama or the party.  It has gotten to the point where Hillary and her supporters have showed their true colors, and the resulting picture is a nasty one.
Hillary Clinton’s threatening civil war within the party if she isn’t [...]

Because she’s staying in when the fight is clearly over. Because she’s hurt our chances in November by initially suggesting McCain [...]

Asif Ali Zardari Betrays Nawaz Sharif

Sharif is pulling his party out of the coalition government, and the reasons why couldn’t be more clear:
Zardari and Sharif signed a pact in March promising to restore the judges by April 30 but Sharif extended the deadline until May 12 because of Zardari’s foot-dragging.
Musharraf purged the judiciary during a brief period of emergency rule [...]

Internet Privacy: Republicans and Democrats Unite Against YOU

Issues come along every now and again which remind us how both parties ultimately consider us peasants.  We are to be controlled, not listened to.  We can see this in our farce of an electoral system, from the fractured primary season up to the electoral college and voting sans paper-trail.  We can see it when [...]

Clinton, Super Delegates After PA

Hillary won in PA:
Clinton called Tuesday’s win “very big and very sweet” and stressed that her win should send a message to unpledged superdelegates.
That message?  Ignore the popular vote, the delegate count, and just vote for her.
I imagine that will be well received by the Democratic base.  We prefer our decisions be made for us [...]
