  1. I check in at Kos to sense the pulse. I get the sense that there are gooing to be more folks voting Green or otherwise not voting for Obama than his handlers realize. And these are people who pay attention and influence others. To tell you the truth, I don't care who wins the presidency n 2012. It doesn't matter.

  3. Oh baby, I have so many of these I could add.

    1. directing tax dollars to “faith-based initiatives,”

    2. supports the coup government in Honduras

    3. continued renditions of alleged terrorists to countries where they could be tortured

    4. censored reporters covering military tribunals at Guantanamo

    5. blocked the release of photos documenting the torture and abuse of detainees by the US military

    They're endless.

  7. pissed: If Obama keeps acting like Bush, you will be far from alone in thinking that the 2012 presidential election outcome doesn't matter. Personally, I think it is important to vote Green to build for the future and to use the vote to express opposition to "both" major parties.

    Christopher: Let's see. Items 1, 2, 3, and 5 on your list here refer to items 11, 2, 7, and 80 on my list. Thanks for bringing them up because I doubt most people will look at all the posts that comprise the list anyway.

    Item 4 is something I forgot about. It will be item 137 on a post that will be published towards the end of the month. I linked to your blog to credit you and say thanks.

    You are absolutely correct in pointing out that there are so many.

    ridingthirdrail: Thanks!
