A particularly poignant mix of comments and news today

1. If they torture, stop the train, I want to get off.

I think that was the most powerful statement that sums up the outrage we all feel for this Torture business.

Torture is the one reason that I decided to withdraw from the capitalist system, and no longer offer my talent or labor to a system that feeds such policies off of my production.

Enough.

I like Obama and all, but my withdrawl from the current economic system is still in effect until I see real, meaningful change, justice, and an acknowledgement that the Earth is a finitie resource that is on the edge of collapse.

I will not assist the government in helping the Corporations pollute the Easth and destroy the Biosphere. If will not pay for any weapons of war. I will not pay for increased productivity by sending my spouse and kids to work for less. I will not pay to keep 40 years of Black Budget operations secret for another 4 years. I will not bail out the Federal Reserve. I will not take out any loans to prop up your broken Fractional Reserve Monetary System. In other words, I'm going to live like man originally did, and there is no way to change it until Measurable, meaningful change occurs.

In other words Mr. Obama, I like you and all, but real change will need to occur before the U.S. gets any fraction of my labor, for anything.

2. Good for you!

I can't do as you do but in my own way try educating people about the killer system.

3. Who would Jesus torture?

I'll never forget that the MSM shouted for days about how Bush had won the election in 2004 because of the GOP's lock on "Morality"

The MSM needs to be put on trial for their crimes and stupidity too.
