I doubt I will get a response.

Happy New Year All!!!!!!!!!!!!

We need to reestablish proper basic Constitutional Law.

We need to reestablish excellent international relations.

We need to work on the nation’s economy (both domestic and international).

We need to rebuild the middle class and lift up the working poor.

We need to end our problem with oil and it’s effects on our economy and the environment.

We need to find some way to end this crazy War on Terror.

We have a LOT of important huge things to do.

To do this we need real Leadership — a leader who has a proven track record, intelligence, compassion for working folk, determination and grit to take on the big fights.

We need someone who knows which issues are most important and listens to the public.

We need someone who can build the party’s dominance to make it easier, not just for 2009-2012, but for many years to come. We need the kind of 50-state leadership Howard Dean suggested, but which Bill Clinton never delivered.

I say John Edwards is the best candidate for the job.

He’s fought corporate interests for years and won. He’s trying to raise the emotional level of this campaign to enable Congressional candidates to win all across the country, including in Red states.

He knows the domestic issues since he’s lived them and because he relates so well to ordinary folk. He’s spent his entire life fighting for people who aren’t part of George W. Bush’s ‘base’.

He isn’t bought and paid for by corporate money, so you know he intends to follow through.

Perhaps most of all, he has a global vision of what American can be and our place in a better world. He isn’t just seeking to raise the minimum wage. He wants to raise up the middle class to set the American economy back on the track to tremendous growth and strength. He hasn’t been promoting world-wide education just to get the terrorists off our backs. He has a vision of a better tomorrow where America doesn’t have to fear, but can help our neighbors with whom we are friends. John Edwards hasn’t just picked a few policies by accident — he wants us to all succeed and have better lives without fear or want.

John Edwards — Real Leadership!

The NYT can shut up, they say they have vision problems…? Well maybe giving a job to on of the architects and pimp pushers of this nightmare is not the way to go (NYT to employee Bubba Bill Crystal).

Rolling Stones tix among gifts spread to lawmakers
As state governments around the country were trying to regulate subprime lending practices that critics say were responsible for this year’s mortgage meltdown, the subprime industry was spreading cash and gifts to lawmakers in a dozen states. The Wall Street Journal’s Glenn Simpson details the case of Ameriquest Mortgage Co., reporting the company worked with a married pair of DC lobbyists to spread more than $20 million in political donations in states considering subprime regulations. Ameriquest also handed out stacks of Rolling Stones tickets to lawmakers in eight states as well as to the campaign of California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger.

and to SanderO and others: YES __ IMPEACH NOW !! is the ONLY message that must be sent to the dems in congress. but they won’t hear it, more’s the pity.
