For Hope | Fanning the Flames

https://fanningtheflames1.wordpress.com/2009/03/05/for-hope

Poetry through words and dreams. March 5, 2009. A man shot himself at the Shell station yesterday,. Trading his blood for oil,. For a helicopter ride to the hospital,. 8220;Were there any warning signs? 8221; a reporter asked,. And I remembered a Vietnam veteran. Sleeping on a steam grate in front of the FBI building,. Too tired to pull the trigger. Some do and some don’t,. Yet gas prices and hopelessness are rising daily. 8220;The warning signs are everywhere,” a witness answered. Posted by Jamie York.

Salt and Pepper | Fanning the Flames

Poetry through words and dreams. March 5, 2009. Of Krugerrand gold and slavery,. And segregation, pass laws. And Coca-Cola. We learned. And more —. The hundreds of students. Killed in rebellion, the thousands. Held in concentration camps. Of the Volkswagon beetle. And starvation, of the open graves. At Dimbaza, waiting to be filled with children. Posted by Jamie York.

Our Constitution and Bill of Rights is a model for people in developing countries around the world. And rightly so! It gives citizens - we the people - the power and authority over government. People everywhere dream of this. As do we, since the reality has never caught up with the dream. A corporation certainly does. Individual contributors have long been able to do thi...

Discussion of politics and current events from a humanist perspective. The Corporate Attack on Unions and Collective Bargaining. Corporations – emboldened by a 2010 Supreme Court ruling allowing them unlimited spending in U.S. elections, and bolstered by a pro-corporate Congress – are now poised to eliminate the right of union workers to bargain collectively for fair wages and benefits.

Freeze Frame: July 2007

http://mediagonebad.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html

Discussion of politics and current events from a humanist perspective. Honoring our war dead. History will one day portray George W. Bush as a criminal and a warmonger who desired the power of a king to decide law, declare war, curtail civil liberties, and erode the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights. When Bush is finally exposed for the criminal he is and his role in fabricating evidence for the Iraq war is finally exposed, what punishment should he receive? Even though the war is wrong, no one need d...
